Abstract: An apparatus and process for formation of a multicomponent metal alloy ingot or product in which granulated metal feedstock, under a high pressure inert environment, is introduced onto a rotating platen or previously deposited layer on the rotating platen. As the granulated feedstock is deposited on the platen, the platen is rotated such that a segment of the platen having the feedstock thereon passes through an energy generator field such as a melting laser beam or eddy current induction melting field. As it passes it is melted to form an arcuate segment of melt. The melt is then rotated out from under the energy beam and cooled into a solid state of the desired alloy as a next contiguous segment of feedstock is introduced and the process repeated until a layer is formed. The platen may then be indexed lower and a new layer is formed in the same manner.
