Successful Final Project Meeting for the REACT Collaborative Project

2026-11-13

To mark the conclusion of the BMWK-funded collaborative project REACT “Resource Efficient Additive Manufacturing of Martensitic Chromium Steels” the project partners came together to present their results and discuss opportunities for their future application.
The project focused on developing a resource-efficient process chain for the additive manufacturing of martensitic chromium steels.
The work covered alloy development, powder production, industrial PBF-LB/M processing, tailored heat treatment and HIP processes, as well as validation using application-oriented end products, including medical instruments and kitchen knives.
The final meeting highlighted the success of the close collaboration across the entire process chain. We would like to thank all project partners for their commitment and cooperation, the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action for funding the project, and Project Management Jülich (PtJ) for its support throughout the project.
