Medical-Grade Cobalt Chrome Alloy Powder for Metal 3D Printing | LPBF Compatible - 10 kg / 22 lbs
What your process engineer actually checks
Locked, traceable lot chemistry
Every lot ships with a COA documenting PSD, sphericity, flow rate, apparent density, and full chemistry — and a lot number you can trace. Aerospace and medical teams reorder 4+ times without re-qualifying.
Qualified parameters, not just powder
Validated parameter sets for EOS M 290, Renishaw 500Q, SLM 280, and our own AO Metal LPBF ship with the order. Load the profile and hit density on the first build — no parameter-development burn.
A materials engineer on the line
Questions on ferrite content, flowability, recyclate ratios, or HIP response? A materials engineer answers directly — not a contact-form bot. Most replies in under 4 hours, NDA standard.
PowderRange® CCM is a non-magnetic cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CoCrMo) alloy engineered for metal additive manufacturing. This cobalt alloy exhibits excellent strength, corrosion and wear resistance, and superior biocompatibility, making it ideal for small biomedical devices and high-performance industrial components.
Produced via vacuum induction melting (VIM) followed by nitrogen gas atomization, PowderRange® CCM powder is suitable for LPBF, EBM, and DED processes. It demonstrates excellent weldability in laser additive manufacturing and can be processed with nitrogen or argon shielding gas.
CCM cobalt alloy maintains high mechanical properties up to 1112°F (600°C) and performs reliably in corrosive environments. When nickel content is below 0.1%, it is biocompatible. Its non-magnetic nature also makes it compatible with MRI applications. These characteristics make PowderRange® CCM perfect for orthopedic implants, dental devices, and high-performance tooling in energy and medical industries.

From process engineers running Medical-Grade Cobalt Chrome Alloy Powder for Metal 3D Printing | LPBF Compatible - 10 kg / 22 lbs
Unedited feedback from customers who reorder Medical-Grade Cobalt Chrome Alloy Powder for Metal 3D Printing | LPBF Compatible - 10 kg / 22 lbs.
Same lot 4 times in a row. We stopped re-running parameter sweeps after the second order — density was identical to the first build.
Asked about ferrite content on a Friday. A materials engineer answered Monday morning with actual data, not a sales pitch. That's why we keep ordering.
COA matches the bottle. PSD and flow are exactly what was on the sheet — we run it on a Renishaw 500Q and it hits density on the first try.
