For decades, additive manufacturing firms have been dependent on a narrow pipeline of polymer powders. Alpha Powders, a Warsaw-based startup, aims to disrupt this dependence through spherodization, a processing technology that converts irregular, pulverized plastic particles into optimized spherical powders suitable for powder bed fusion printing. “Plastic was never meant to be pulverized,” said Dominik Zdybał, CEO of Alpha Powders. “It was meant to deform, be tough, not to break apart.
