Cemented carbide powder - List of Manufacturers, Suppliers, Companies and Products

Introduction of carbide powder for 3D printers (additive manufacturing).

We offer carbide powder suitable for 3D printing applications! The powder design tailored to the molding methods (such as PBF and DED) contributes to the densification and high hardness of the printed objects.

Cemented carbide is widely used for tools, cutting tools, molds, and jigs due to its excellent hardness and wear resistance. However, because of these characteristics, it is known as a difficult-to-machine material, and conventional processing methods have faced challenges in achieving complex shapes and longer delivery times. To address these issues, our company has developed cemented carbide powder suitable for 3D printing. It has the following features: 1) High-flow powder that contributes to high density 2) A lineup tailored to different manufacturing methods (PBF, DED, etc.) Expected applications: - High-precision press molds, special cutting tools - Repair of large structures and components, hard coatings Additionally, as a powder manufacturer, we support our customers' 3D printing with layered manufacturing by providing high-quality materials and developing and designing powders that consider different process parameters such as laser output, scanning speed, and layer thickness for each manufacturing method. If you have any inquiries or challenges regarding 3D printing with cemented carbide powder, please feel free to contact us.

Introduction of research project results on ultra-hard alloy powder for 3D additive manufacturing.

[Case Study of 3D Printer Development Initiatives] Introducing the achievement of producing ultra-hard punches with internal piping, with over 100,000 shots in actual use.

In the "Knowledge Base Aichi Key Research Project" implemented by Aichi Prefecture and the Public Interest Incorporated Foundation Science and Technology Exchange Foundation, a research group consisting of Professor Makoto Kobashi from Nagoya University, Asahi Seiki Kogyo Co., Ltd., Aichi Industrial Science and Technology Comprehensive Center, and our company has successfully developed a mold for cemented carbide with internal structures using a 3D printer. We are currently fabricating cemented carbide punches with internal piping using a 3D printer, and for verification, we are using the actual fabricated cemented carbide punches in deep drawing processing. We have confirmed that there are no abnormalities in both the workpiece and the punch even after 100,000 shots, and further verification with an increased number of shots is planned for the future. Our company has developed powders with properties suitable for metal 3D printers (Powder Bed Fusion: PBF) necessary for fabricating using cemented carbide powders. The manufacturing and sales of these 3D printer-compatible cemented carbide powders have already begun. The cemented carbide punch shown in the image was fabricated by Japan Layered Manufacturing Co., Ltd.

【NEW】HRA92 equivalent high hardness cemented carbide powder for layered manufacturing.

Achieving high hardness equivalent to HRA92 with a 3D printer! Introducing a molded body made using newly developed WC-TiC-Co based powder for additive manufacturing.

Until now, our high-hardness powder for 3D printers has had a hardness limit of around 87HRA for the molded body, which posed challenges in applications for parts made from some ultra-hard alloys due to insufficient hardness. The newly developed hard powder has a main phase of WC-TiC-Co, and by achieving a fine microstructure, we have significantly improved the hardness of the molded body to 92HRA. This enables 3D printing of ultra-hard alloy powders that require high hardness, contributing to the resolution of conventional challenges. **Expected Applications** - High-precision press molds (extended lifespan and stabilized precision) - Special cutting tools (high wear resistance and high reliability) - Prototype manufacturing (shortened delivery times) Furthermore, since we possess metal 3D printer equipment, we can provide a comprehensive service that goes beyond mere powder sales, including ultra-hard molding tests, material property evaluations, and prototype support. For customers looking for "ultra-hard alloy 3D printing," "hard powder for metal 3D printers," or "ultra-hard powder materials," we offer a total solution that combines materials, molding, and evaluation. Please feel free to contact us for inquiries about the introduction of next-generation ultra-hard alloy 3D printing or prototype consultations.

[Technical Data] Case Study on Carbide × 3D Printer (LPBF Method)

This is a technical document summarizing the characteristics of cemented carbide understood from the basics, general powder metallurgy methods, challenges and causes of layered manufacturing of cemented carbide, as well as countermeasures and case studies!

Opening up new possibilities with carbide × LPBF! Our company has evolved the 3D printing technology for carbide powder, enabling high-precision and high-strength fabrication that was previously difficult. In this series (a total of 5 sessions), we will systematically explain the characteristics of carbide, fabrication technology, and approaches to solving challenges. If you are interested in more innovative material solutions, please take a look. Session 1: An introduction to the characteristics of carbide and the manufacturing process using conventional powder metallurgy methods, as well as 3D printers (LPBF method) for beginners. Session 2: In the LPBF method using carbide, the formability is poor, and pores and cracks have been observed in the fabricated objects; we will delve into these challenges and their causes. Session 3: We will consider how the heat treatment conditions after fabrication affect the fabricated products. Session 4: As a confirmation of the effect of carbon content on reducing brittle phases in layered fabrication (LPBF method) of carbide, we will examine the impact of adding graphite particles to carbide powder. Session 5: We will introduce case studies of 3D carbide fabricated products applied to deep-drawing press molds used in automotive parts manufacturing.
