3D Systems develops C103 processing parameters with Elmet for hypersonic parts on DMP Flex 350 Triple
DDD•R&D work with Elmet Technologies
3D Systems disclosed R&D work with Elmet Technologies that developed processing parameters for C103 refractory alloy on its metal 3D printers.
Qualification and certification targets
Elmet expects qualification within months, targeting NASA 6030 certification shortly thereafter, accelerating domestic production and reducing supply-chain dependence.
Potential deployment for hypersonic-vehicle parts
The parameter set supports deployment of the DMP Flex 350 Triple for hypersonic-vehicle heat exchangers, targeting rapid machine and material qualification in 2026.
