Desktop Metal is the market leader in binder jetting and sinter-based AM for production, with more than 1,350 systems now installed worldwide. DM systems are now qualified to 3D print more than 40 materials.

A highlight of the booth will be 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.”

Other highlights of critical applications to be on display include binder jet 3D printed:

In all, more than 24 customer parts will be on display, alongside the all-new PureSinter Furnace, as well as a Studio System bound metal deposition (BMD) printer and three entry-level binder jet 3D printers, including a Shop System, Production System P-1, and InnoventX.
