Abstract
A method for producing material powder, comprising providing material and an atomization gas charged with an atomization gas pressure by means of an atomization gas compressor to an atomization device, melting the material and pulverizing the molten material into material powder by means of charging the molten material with the atomization gas using the atomization device, introducing the material powder from the atomization device into a pressurized container and providing a conveyor gas charged with a conveyer gas pressure by means of a conveyer gas compressor to the pressurized container, wherein the conveyor gas pressure is higher than the atmospheric pressure and lower than the atomization gas pressure, as well as a device for carrying out the method.
