Heat treatment
Carpenter datasheet, process guidance
- Solution anneal per AMS5662: about 971 °C (1780 °F) for about 1 hour, air cool.
- Age: 718 °C (1325 °F) for 8 hours, cool at 56 °C (100 °F) per hour to 621 °C (1150 °F), hold at least 8 hours, air cool.
- HIP to close porosity: 100 MPa at about 1141 °C for 240 minutes in argon, then solution anneal and age.
- As-built 718 already has useful strength; solution and age bring it to the AMS5662 range.

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.
