Metal Alloys

Developed by a team of world-leading materials scientists and 3D printing experts, the Studio System fabrication process is designed to take the guesswork out of achieving parts with good metallurgical properties.

The Metal Alloys is great for:

Similar to metal injection molding (MIM), the Studio System leverages bulk sintering to achieve parts with high densities and reliable performance. Everything from the particle distribution size within each rod to the design of the cartridges and extruder mechanisms supports a faster, easier, and safer workflow for printing high-quality metal parts in-house and on-demand.

Safe to Handle

Leveraging well-studied metal powders from the metal injection molding (MIM) industry, our media is formulated into bound rods—metal powder mixed with wax and polymer binder. Compared to filament media, rods have a higher ratio of metal to binder—resulting in less shrinkage and greater stability during sintering.

Hot-swappable Media Cartridges

Push-to-release media cartridges can be replaced mid-cycle without disrupting the current print. This allows users to use every gram of material without needing to pause a print to change spools or dispose of partially used material—Ultimately leading to cost savings and a more efficient workflow.
