3D Lab – ATO Sparq
New ATO Sparq enables you to make metal powder
yourself by optimizing the production of both
reactive and non-reactive powders on a smaller,
self-sufficient scale – now with AI-ready control.
Innovate alloy formulations, experiment with
various metals and their alloys, and let built-in
image analysis and AI guidance help you keep the
process in the optimal window
Open a new chapter in your research and development with ATO Sparq.
Design your alloy and quickly produce spherical metal powder with high flowability,
perfect for your Additive Manufacturing and powder metallurgy needs
– with the machine actively “watching” and tuning the process.
ATO Sparq throughput reaches several hundred grams of metal powder per hour
with a particle size from 20 to 120 μm.
Additionally, depending on selected ultrasonic ATO Frequency System module,
it’s possible to produce a specific Particle Size Distribution tailored to user needs.
KEY FEATURES
- AI-ready atomization control
- Highest powder quality
- Compact lab-scale design
- Wide alloy compatibility
- Modular, expandable system
- TIG + Plasma melting
- Quick material change
- Large powder container with fill monitoring
- High safety and stability
- Cost-efficient and scalable
The quality of the software is a strong factor for the user’s experience.
We know this, so we’ve given ATO Sparq an intelligent,
AI-ready control system that’s adaptable and easy to use
Users manage the process through a dual touchscreen and precise controls,
while AI assists in maintaining optimal atomization conditions.
The interface allows quick adjustment of ultrasonic and melting parameters
and enables remote monitoring and control of the entire process
ATO Sparq comes with a vacuum pump, which quickly
creates the right environment with very low oxygen levels.
This ensures the materials are of the highest chemical purity.
Thanks to its tight-sealing chamber, it can make powders of
reactive metals and their mixtures, like titanium and
aluminum, and monitor the process via two independent
camera views. The upgraded industrial computer, ambient
lighting and tray under the process chamber improve
ergonomics and visibility, while built-in diagnostics watch
the condition of consumables and notify the operator when
maintenance is needed.
ATO Sparq boosts productivity by oering exible congurations.
Users can choose from several feeding system modules, each
designed for specic input materials:
Additionally, custom feeders can be provided upon request.
ATO Sparq has been designed by industry-oriented researchers aiming to overcome
traditional atomization limitations and bring AI into the heart of the process.
ATO Sparq has a compact form, making it possible for comfortable usage even
in a limited space, now enriched with ambient interior lighting and an ergonomic
tray under the process chamber.
Along with its innovative technology, integrated AI tools and no requirements
for sophisticated infrastructure, it ensures exceptionally low operating costs,
high stability and a quick return on investment.
