3D Printed Tungsten Carbide & Stellite™ Solutions

Printed Products that Build Industries

Kennametal Additive Manufacturing (AM) offers a game-changing solution— high-performance materials and parts, produced faster and with the design flexibility of 3D printing.

Kennametal brings nearly a century of materials and manufacturing expertise to every layer of the AM process—from raw material to finished part—helping our customers unlock the full value of 3D printing for applications demanding wear, erosion, corrosion and high temperature performance.

The Most Significant Next-Gen Manufacturing Technology is Here

Metal additive manufacturing processes (Metal 3D Printing) represent the next generation in design freedom, manufacturing flexibility, and supply chain optimization. These proven processes are being leveraged across a variety of industries and applications to develop and deploy high-performing parts both quickly and efficiently.

Kennametal is focused on adapting its high-performing wear- and corrosion-resistant material families to multiple 3D print platforms to produce complex, fully finished components and tooling with shorter lead times and improved performance. 

Differentiated Metal Powders

We offer a differentiated portfolio of gas-atomized metal additive powders—including our Kennametal Stellite™ line—optimized for additive manufacturing.

Metal powders are available direct to customers for use in 3D printing applications or in combination with our end-to-end capabilities to produce fully finished components.

Design Optimization & Rapid Prototyping

We optimize your designs for additive manufacturing—identifying opportunities for part consolidation, better material utilization and improved manufacturing efficiencies.

We also offer prototyping of functional metal parts to shorten development cycles and design iteration, so you can bring products to market faster and easier.

Series Production

Kennametal offers end-to-end AM solutions for series production parts.

We have quickly become a leader in the additive manufacturing space with our ability to offer fully dense, cemented tungsten carbide, 3D-printed components.

In addition, we combine our differentiated metal powders with manufacturing expertise in binder jet and laser powder bed printing technologies, as well as post-print processing, to produce fully finished components and tooling faster—for less downtime and improved performance.
