Unlock High-Performance Superalloy Binder Jet Printing with Continuum Powders and Desktop Metal

Continuum’s 100% re-atomized OptiPowder M247 and M247LC (low carbon) are available as R&D Qualified in Desktop Metal’s binder jet 3D printing portfolio

A case study in certification, throughput, and sustainability

When production matters, qualification is everything. That’s why Desktop Metal certified Continuum’s OptiPowder nickel superalloys for the X25Pro binder jet platform (with PureSinter), enabling high-precision parts that perform in extreme environments.

On the X25Pro, OptiPowder delivered:

  • Platform certification & seamless fit: Powders optimized for binder jetting and validated with X25Pro + PureSinter for consistent, repeatable results.
  • Production-ready quality: Fully dense, isotropic parts that meet rigorous industry requirements.
  • High-temp performance: Ni superalloys engineered for strength at temperatures up to ~1000 °C.
  • Operational efficiency: Superior flowability, packing density, and sintering behavior for complex geometries and high-throughput manufacturing.
  • Proven sustainability: Produced from 100% reclaimed feedstock using green energy, plus a closed-loop reclaim → re-atomize service that reduces waste and supports circular manufacturing.

The result: a certified powder portfolio that gives manufacturers reliable performance, repeatable quality, and a more sustainable, cost-efficient supply—ready for production on Desktop Metal’s X25Pro.
