Amloy is an acronym for amorphous alloy, also known as metallic glass or amorphous metal. It is an undercooled frozen metallic liquid with an amorphous, chaotic atomic order, offering superior properties in comparison to crystalline metals and alloys used in today’s applications. The high strength combined with a high elasticity and comparatively low density to steel allows by example the manufacturing of more robust, smaller, thinner and lighter components. Injection molding or additive manufacturing technologies allow the near net shape processing of Amloy in industrial scale. The development of a completely new injection molding process allows the manufacturing of net shape amorphous parts within 60-90 seconds at tight tolerances and without necessarily required post processing. 3D printing enables completely new designs using honeycomb or bionic structure elements and by taking advantage of the high strength of the material, weight reduction up to 30% in comparison to Titanium alloys are within reach allowing a further optimization of high-performance light weight components.
