New Nickel-based H�ganäs Amperprint® 0233 Haynes® 282® Powder
Enhances the Capabilities of Velo3D’s End-to-End Solution for
Customers in Oil and Gas, Aviation, Energy, Space, and Other
High-value Applications
Velo3D, Inc. (NYSE: VLD), a leading metal additive manufacturing
technology company for mission-critical parts, has qualified the
nickel-based superalloy powder Amperprint® 0233 Haynes® 282® for
use in its Sapphire® family of printers. The powder was produced by
H�ganäs AB—a world leader in metal powder production—under license
from Haynes International, Inc. and is designed for high creep
strength, thermal stability, weldability, and fabricability not
commonly found in other alloys. The material is ideal for
high-temperature structural applications like energy generation,
gas turbines, and space launch vehicles to build parts like heat
exchangers, combustors, nozzles, combustion liners, rocket engines,
and shrouded impellers.

unique holes for optimized air-to-fuel ratios and internal channels
for regenerative cooling. The part is shown as printed, with no
supports. (Photo: Business Wire)
The first Sapphire® printer utilizing the Amperprint® 0233
Haynes® 282® powder will be operated by Duncan Machine Products
(DMP), a contract manufacturer based in Duncan, Oklahoma. The
system will be the seventh in DMP’s fleet of Velo3D Sapphire®
printers.
“Our goal at Velo3D is to enable engineers to build the parts
they want without compromising on the design or quality,” said
Benny Buller, Velo3D CEO and Founder. “Qualifying new powdered
metals, like Amperprint® 0233 Haynes® 282®, for use in our
end-to-end solution further expands what’s possible with our
additive manufacturing technology. Our partners at H�ganäs provide
materials of the highest quality and I look forward to seeing what
our customers build using this amazing alloy.”
Powdered nickel-based superalloys, like Amperprint® 0233 Haynes®
282®, are often used to print parts for use in high-temperature
applications due to the alloy’s resistance to cracking and its
ability to operate at near-melting-point temperatures. This
tolerance allows parts printed with the alloy to be used in vacuum,
plasma, and other demanding applications. Its high weldability
makes the powder ideal for parts in larger systems because of its
ability to be welded to other components.
H�ganäs specializes in creating powders for additive
manufacturing, delivering products with consistent spherical shape,
tight control on chemistry, and enhanced flowability. The powders
are made using the purest materials with very precise compositions
of trace elements that give the metals their unique properties.
“It’s inspiring to see what engineers have been able to build
using metal powders from H�ganäs and Velo3D’s support-free additive
manufacturing process,” said Jerome Stanley, H�ganäs Director of
Global Sales, Customization Technologies. “The first parts printed
using our Amperprint® 0233 Haynes® 282® powder are impressive, and
I believe customers are only scratching the surface of what is
possible with this superalloy. The powder, combined with Velo3D’s
end-to-end solution metal AM solution, is an extremely effective
combination for consolidating parts into monolithic structures to
eliminate coefficient of thermal expansion in large,
high-performance systems.”
Velo3D is one of the first additive manufacturing technology
companies to offer Amperprint® 0233 Haynes® 282® powder to its
customers. Many of Velo3D’s customers use its end-to-end solution
to produce parts for use in aviation, energy, oil and gas, space,
and other high-performance applications, making the powder a good
fit for Velo3D’s portfolio. In addition to Amperprint® 0233 Haynes®
282® powder, metal powders qualified to be printed with Velo3D’s
technology include Hastelloy X®, Inconel 718, aluminum F357, Ti
6Al-4V Grade 5, and several other materials.
About Velo3D:
Velo3D is a metal 3D printing technology company. 3D
printing—also known as additive manufacturing (AM)—has a unique
ability to improve the way high-value metal parts are built.
However, legacy metal AM has been greatly limited in its
capabilities since its invention almost 30 years ago. This has
prevented the technology from being used to create the most
valuable and impactful parts, restricting its use to specific
niches where the limitations were acceptable.
Velo3D has overcome these limitations so engineers can design
and print the parts they want. The company’s solution unlocks a
wide breadth of design freedom and enables customers in space
exploration, aviation, power generation, energy and semiconductor
to innovate the future in their respective industries. Using
Velo3D, these customers can now build mission-critical metal parts
that were previously impossible to manufacture. The end-to-end
solution includes the Flow™ print preparation software, the
Sapphire® family of printers, and the Assure™ quality control
system—all of which are powered by Velo3D’s Intelligent Fusion®
manufacturing process. The company delivered its first Sapphire®
system in 2018 and has been a strategic partner to innovators such
as SpaceX, Honeywell, Honda, Chromalloy, and Lam Research. Velo3D
has been named to Fast Company’s prestigious annual list of the
World’s Most Innovative Companies for 2021. For more information,
