The copper alloy powder for additive manufacturing created by Mitsui Kinzoku's Engineered Powders Division will be added to the metal 3D printing materials inventory, according to Mitsui Mining & Smelting Co., Ltd., a prominent provider of additive manufacturing solutions.

The usage of copper in a variety of industries, including high-frequency induction heating coils, electric car motor components, data centre cooling equipment, and space rocket components, is gaining attention on a global scale. A product with excellent electrical conductivity and an item that is simple to print and has controlled conductive qualities and strength are the two varieties of copper chromium alloy powder that Mitsui Kinzoku offers for 3D printer items. With regard to 3D printing, both items guarantee performance that is superior to those of competing products.

For the DMP Flex 350 and DMP Factory 350 machines, 3D Systems has added Certified CuCr2.4, an easily printable product with adjustable conductive qualities and robustness, to its selection of materials.

A NASA standard GRCop-42 copper alloy powder has been introduced by KBM Advanced Materials, LLC, Fairfield, Ohio, USA. The alloy, known by the business as "RocketPowder," is composed of copper, niobium, and chromium and is perfect for space and hypersonic applications since it has a high heat transfer rate and more strength than pure copper.

KBM is a distributor of metal powders for the advanced manufacturing and additive manufacturing sectors, however it admits that finding GRCop-42 for its clients was a big difficulty. Consequently, KBM established a special technical and production cooperation through which a novel, reliable, repeatable process for this specialised alloy was created.
