Frequently Asked Questions: Manufactured Parts

What are the advantages of Additive Manufacturing for energy components?

AM allows for "design for function" rather than "design for manufacturing." This enables complex internal geometries (like cooling channels), part consolidation (reducing welds/fasteners), and significant lightweighting.

How does Carpenter Technology ensure the quality of 3D-printed parts?

We maintain end-to-end control by producing our own metal powders, managing the print parameters, and performing in-house HIP (Hot Isostatic Pressing) and heat treatment to ensure full density and optimal grain structure.

Can 3D-printed parts handle high-temperature turbine environments?

Yes. By using high-performance superalloys like Pyromet® 718 and optimized post-processing, our manufactured parts meet the strict creep and fatigue requirements for gas turbine operations.

Do you provide design support for part consolidation?

Our team of 200+ metallurgists and AM engineers works directly with your design team to identify opportunities to consolidate assemblies, which reduces risk and lowers total production costs.
