Desktop Metal

Characterized by its exceptional hot hardness, abrasion resistance, and stability in heat treatment, H13 is a tool steel widely used in both hot and cold work applications. Tool steel refers to a variety of carbon and alloy steels that are particularly well suited for toolmaking. Their suitability comes from their distinctive hardness, resistance to deformation, and their ability to hold a cutting edge at elevated temperatures. As a result, tool steels are well suited to shape other materials. H13 is a chromium molybdenum hot work steel well known for its exceptional hot hardness and abrasion resistance, making it ideal for [...]

Desktop Metal's Bound Metal Deposition technology brings metal 3D printing into the office environment, making low-cost prototyping of metal parts achievable as well as user-friendly and cost-effective. The Studio printer extrudes rods that have metal powder bound within wax and plastic to form the parts. The binders in these parts are then removed through a two-step process of debinding and sintering similar to metal injection molding; also known as MIM. Desktop Metal's Bound Metal Deposition platform will ultimately have access to a wide range of metals from the MIM industry and there are currently 30 materials in development. The materials [...]

https://cimquesttv.wistia.com/medias/gw4al6zpky?embedType=iframe&videoFoam=true&videoWidth=640   Cimquest is excited to showcase one of our customers, Alpha Precision Group. Since their initial implementation of the Desktop Studio system just 8 months ago, they have created over 200 metal parts (100 of them unique). APG is excited about the value proposition of the technology and share how Bound Metal Deposition has impacted their business objectives through this informative video. Learn about some of the parts they have done thus far and why they are pleased with the results of their Desktop Metal Studio printer!

We are very excited to announce the arrival of our Desktop Metal Studio Machine and Debinder. Upon adding metal 3D Printing to our arsenal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology solutions, we fully intend to leverage our decades of experience supporting manufacturing in the region via conventional tooling processes such as CNC Machining. Our ability to process metal parts will be invaluable as we work closely with our customers to target and develop key applications for Desktop Metal's Bound Metal Deposition Technology. For example, in cases where parts need to hold tighter tolerances then the "as sintered" specifications, or a better surface [...]
