capacity to its titanium powder manufacturing operation.
AP&C, the high quality powder manufacturing subsidiary of Arcam, has completed
the start-up of its third atomization reactor. AP&C uses proprietary technology
for Plasma Atomization and designed and manufactured its third atomization
reactor with a new state-of-the-art process control system. With this new
