Atomising Systems Limited is a private company in Sheffield that specialises in the technology of metal powder production by atomisation. Building on the considerable experience of its founders, ASL has been in operation since 1992 and has clients in Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, England, France, Germany, Holland, India, Japan, Korea, Norway, Mexico, Poland, Portugal, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA.

A major area of expertise is water atomisation, with experience of atomising rates from 3 to 500 kg.min and melt weights from 200 gms to 80 tonnes. Powders of precious metals, non-ferrous metals, iron, steels and alloys of nickel and cobalt are all produced using ASL equipment

ASL offers gas atomisation systems which can be provided with the ASL's 'Anti-Satellite' technology. This 'Anti-Satellite' technology dramatically reduces the incidences of small powder particles being stuck to larger particles. Reduction of satelliting increases the flowability of powders. ASL has over 25 units in operation for clients who produce metal alloys for brazing, amalgams and many other products.

ASL is also a world leading source of technology and equipment for the production of non-metallic powders by atomisation. ASL has experience of a wide variety of non-metallic melts such as salts (halides) oxides, sulphides, borates, silicates, chocolate, sulphur, silicon and plastics. Melting points range from 40C to over 2000C."
