At this year's Rapid + TCT, Desktop Metal presented over 24 different customer applications that utilise metal and ceramic binder jet 3D printing. These include components made from a range of materials such as aluminium, titanium, copper, platinum and silicon carbide. Notably, the company introduced the Pure Sinter Furnace, a new high-purity sintering furnace boasting enhanced efficiency and reliability, marking its global debut.

Another highlight of the booth was a new milestones achieved with binder jetting of AL6061 powder with final part performance that rivals traditional investment casting and surpasses other areas of AM for this material. “We have always faced challenges when printing wrought alloy aluminum materials, such as 6061, using powder bed fusion technologies. However, the work done by Desktop Metal in advancing the printing of wrought alloys has expanded our material options, better aligning with our designers’ preferences,” said Eric Johnson, Ph.D., Senior Manager — Additive Manufacturing, at Eaton Research Labs. “Additionally, we’ve overcome the typical size limitations associated with binder jetting. This breakthrough opens up numerous applications for this technology within our business.”

Among the products on display, visitors saw IN718 jet engine turbine blades, high-requirement silicon carbide components and a range of other critical applications. These components demonstrate the expansive potential of binder jetting technology, which Desktop Metal has leveraged to push beyond traditional manufacturing limits.

The exhibition also featured applications in semiconductor fabrication, medical devices and consumer products, including a full set of golf irons and fine jewelry in various precious metals.
