When the powder is used as a raw material to prepare a corresponding product, the preparation of the powder becomes an important factor restricting the manufacture of the product. Taking silicon powder as an example, the current methods commonly used include mechanical ball milling, chemical vapor deposition, fluidized bed method, and evaporation condensation method.
Specifically, the mechanical ball milling method mainly utilizes mechanical milling force and shearing force generated by mechanical rotation and interaction between particles to mill a material with a large diameter into micron or even nano powder, which has the advantages of low cost and simple operation, but introduces impurities, has low purity, and has irregular particles and effectively uncontrollable particle size distribution. The chemical vapor deposition method and the fluidized bed method mainly pyrolyze silane to obtain corresponding silicon powder, and have the advantages of high purity, uniform particle size distribution and regular shape, but have the problems of complex process, high cost, high requirement on equipment and difficult preservation of raw materials. The evaporation condensation method ionizes the reaction raw material into gaseous atoms, molecules or parts of the gaseous atoms and molecules into ions through a heat source and quickly condenses the gaseous atoms, the molecules or the parts of the gaseous molecules into solid powder.
In these methods, although some satisfactory powders can be obtained, these methods require an overall uninterrupted operation of the raw materials, have low flexibility, complex equipment and high energy consumption, require an overall treatment of the materials, are difficult to perform on-site processing, and result in an increase in the production cost of the powders.

The powder preparing apparatus 100 includes a case 101, a jig 102, a nozzle 103, an air flow pulse member 104, a heat source 105, a circulation pump 106, a jig driving mechanism 107, and a multi-axis driving mechanism 108. The clamp 102 is connected to the box 101 for clamping the non-metal workpiece 200, and the clamp driving mechanism 107 is connected to the clamp 102 for driving the clamp 102 to rotate to realize the rotation of the non-metal workpiece 200. The multi-axis drive mechanism 108 is coupled to the heat source 105 for driving the heat source 105 to move in a plurality of different directions, the heat source 105 being capable of moving into proximity with the non-metallic workpiece 200 and forming a melt zone on the surface of the non-metallic workpiece 200. A gas flow pulse 104 is connected to the tank 101 for forming a pulse gas flow and blowing the pulse gas flow to the melting zone, and a circulation pump 106 is connected to the gas flow pulse 104 for transferring the gas to the gas flow pulse 104. A nozzle 103 is connected to the box 101 for introducing a blowing gas flow in the melting zone and blowing out the molten material.
