Heat treatment

Carpenter datasheet, process guidance

  • Anneal per ASTM F3213: 1215 °C (2219 °F) for 2 hours under inert gas, cool faster than 220 °C (396 °F) per minute to 540 °C (1004 °F), then air cool.
  • HIP per ASTM F3213: at least 100 MPa (14.5 ksi) at about 1204 °C (2200 °F) for 240 minutes in argon.
  • Hard to machine in any heat-treated condition: it work-hardens fast and conducts heat poorly. Plan rigid tooling and enough machine power.

Compatibility and handling

Will it run on my printer?

The 45–106 µm E cut is made for electron-beam powder bed fusion and powder-fed directed energy deposition. For laser powder bed fusion, use the 15–45 µm F cut listed above. Check the particle-size range your machine maker specifies.

Step 1

Store sealed

Keep the container closed, dry and at room temperature until you load the printer.

Step 2

Sieve

Sieve before loading and every time you reuse powder recovered from a build.

ATO Sieve ultrasonic metal powder sieving stationATO Sieve · quote
Step 3

Load

Fill the hopper or powder feeder and run your machine’s vacuum or inert-gas procedure.

Step 4

Print and relieve

Stress-relieve on the plate, then remove parts and supports.

Step 5

Recover

Collect unfused powder, sieve it and return it to a sealed container.

Common questions

Don't see yours? Email [email protected] — NDA on request.

Is this CCM-MC cobalt-chrome powder powder for laser powder bed fusion (LPBF)?
No. PowderRange CCM-MC cobalt-chrome powder (45–106 µm) is the coarse 45–106 µm E cut, made for electron-beam powder bed fusion and powder-fed directed energy deposition. Carpenter's limits for the E cut are no more than 10 wt% above 106 µm and no more than 10 wt% below 45 µm. For laser powder bed fusion, choose the 15–45 µm F cut of PowderRange CCM-MC, listed in the table at the top of this page with its price and availability.
What is PowderRange CCM-MC cobalt-chrome powder (45–106 µm)?
PowderRange CCM-MC cobalt-chrome powder (45–106 µm) is a high-nitrogen, mid-carbon cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy powder from Carpenter Additive, a wrought version of ASTM F75 made for ASTM F3213. It is vacuum induction melted and nitrogen gas atomized, non-magnetic, and keeps high strength up to 600 °C (1112 °F). In Carpenter's tests, as-built laser powder bed fusion parts reached 1,055 MPa yield and 1,383 MPa tensile strength in the X–Y direction.
What is the difference between CCM and CCM-MC?
The main difference is carbon: PowderRange CCM-MC carries 0.10–0.20% carbon, while CCM allows 0.10% maximum and meets the low-carbon wrought version of ASTM F75. The rest of the chemistry has the same limits. Carpenter publishes tensile data for CCM-MC, with 1,383 MPa as-built tensile strength, but not for CCM. Both are in the table at the top of this page.
Is CCM-MC cobalt-chrome biocompatible?
Carpenter states that PowderRange CCM-MC is biocompatible when it is specified with nickel below 0.1%. The standard chemistry allows up to 0.50% nickel, so if you need the low-nickel version, tell us before you order and check the nickel value on the lot certificate. CCM-MC is non-magnetic and can be used in MRI equipment. Implant use also requires your own qualification and regulatory approval.
How is CCM-MC heat treated?
Carpenter's example anneal per ASTM F3213: 1215 °C (2219 °F) for 2 hours under inert gas, then cool faster than 220 °C (396 °F) per minute to 540 °C (1004 °F). After annealing, Carpenter data shows 634 MPa yield and 1,083 MPa tensile strength with 14% elongation in X–Y. HIP per ASTM F3213 at about 1204 °C (2200 °F) and 100 MPa for 240 minutes closes porosity.
Does CCM-MC cobalt-chrome powder come with a certificate of analysis?
Yes. Every order of PowderRange CCM-MC cobalt-chrome powder (45–106 µm) ships with Carpenter Additive's certificate of analysis for the lot you receive. It lists chemistry, particle size distribution (D10, D50, D90), flow and apparent density, with the lot number for traceability. Carpenter states that its powder testing meets Nadcap Materials Testing and ISO/IEC 17025 chemical requirements. If your quality team needs to review a recent certificate before you order, ask us and we will send one.
How fast does CCM-MC cobalt-chrome powder ship, and how can I pay?
Add PowderRange CCM-MC cobalt-chrome powder (45–106 µm) to the cart and the ship date appears next to the button; in-stock Carpenter powder ships from US stock, typically within 2–5 business days. You can pay by card or PayPal, choose Invoice me at checkout to receive an invoice for bank transfer, or send a purchase order to [email protected]. Tax-exempt buyers can upload a certificate at checkout. For 100 kg or more, ask us for a volume quote.
