How the printed metal performs
These are Carpenter laser powder bed fusion (F cut) values for PowderRange CCM-MC, shown for reference: DED and EBM parts have different properties. Average of at least 5 samples; not design data.

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.

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.
Store sealed
Keep the container closed, dry and at room temperature until you load the printer.
Sieve
Sieve before loading and every time you reuse powder recovered from a build.
ATO Sieve · quoteLoad
Fill the hopper or powder feeder and run your machine’s vacuum or inert-gas procedure.
Print and relieve
Stress-relieve on the plate, then remove parts and supports.
Recover
Collect unfused powder, sieve it and return it to a sealed container.
