<p><strong>High-performance C103 Material</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.elmettechnologies.com/">Elmet Technologies</a> has spent the last 8 years with&nbsp;<a href="/consulting/application-innovation-group" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="645cf527-8de1-4311-9f23-033dad288c70" data-entity-substitution="canonical">3D Systems’ Application Innovation Group (AIG),</a> a team of expert engineers who consult, guide and assist customers with advanced development of processes and materials. As part of this work the team developed processing parameters for C103 material specifically for this deployment. &nbsp;C103 is a niobium-based alloy composed primarily of niobium with hafnium and titanium, designed for extreme high-temperature and aerospace applications.</p><p>“We collaborated with AIG on the parameter sets for the C103 material,” said Scott Ohm, R&amp;D Manager, Elmet Technologies. “The work was done on an earlier 3D Systems metal 3D printer and we expect that prior research work will make it very easy to begin production on the DMP 350 Flex Triple.”</p><p><strong>Selecting the DMP 350 Flex Triple</strong></p><p>The <a href="/3d-printers/dmp-flex-350-triple" data-entity-type="node" data-entity-uuid="1fbed319-24aa-4ccc-960b-a28724736c4a" data-entity-substitution="canonical">DMP Flex 350 Triple</a> supports a 350 x 350 x 350 mm build size, with 3 lasers for greater productivity. A best-in-class low oxygen environment maintains &lt;25 ppm oxygen, typically ~0-6 ppm oxygen. This low oxygen (and other interstitial element) environment allows for exceptional powder reuse rates along with tight control of metal chemistry and superior surface finishes.</p><p>Elmet Technologies intends to use this system for the production of large heat exchangers for hypersonic vehicles. Elmet Technologies selected this advanced metal 3D printer for a number of reasons:</p><ul><li>Very low oxygen content maintained within the system makes it a strong choice for very high-quality, consistent and repeatable parts production using refractory metals</li><li>The larger build size helps to meet the growing requirements of customers</li><li>The 3-laser system can enable large production volumes, quickly</li><li>It works with Elmet’s novel in-house materials</li><li>It is anticipated to enable fast qualification and certification</li></ul><p>“This machine, material and process should achieve qualification within a couple of months,” said Ohm. “We anticipate NASA 6030 certification a few months after that. This is very fast and indicative of the quality of this entire solution, as well as confirmation of the sound business ca
