German metal additive manufacturing leader EOS has formed a strategic partnership with metal powder supplier Constellium, adding Constellium's Aheadd CP1 to its materials portfolio under the name EOS Aluminium Constellium CP1, available from August. Meanwhile, EOS's TCT Award-winning Aluminium Al5X1 will be rebranded as EOS Aluminium Constellium Al5X1 and included in Constellium's alloy portfolio. CP1 is suitable for heat exchangers, semiconductor heat sinks, and lightweight structural parts under moderate loads, offering superior performance to AlSi10Mg with cost advantages. Al5X1 is a high-strength, high-elongation, anodizable aluminum alloy targeting aerospace, transportation, and motorsports. The partners emphasize that the collaboration extends beyond these two materials, aiming to establish a long-term framework for developing next-generation 3D printing aluminum alloys.

EOS与Constellium达成战略合作,CP1铝合金8月起正式供应
德国金属增材制造商EOS宣布与金属粉末材料商Constellium建立战略合作伙伴关系,将Constellium的Aheadd CP1纳入其材料组合,自8月起以EOS Aluminium Constellium CP1的名称正式供应。同时,EOS曾获TCT大奖的Aluminium Al5X1将更名为EOS Aluminium Constellium Al5X1,并纳入Constellium的合金产品组合。CP1适用于热交换器、半导体散热片及中等载荷轻量化结构件,性能优于AlSi10Mg,兼具成本优势;Al5X1为高强度、高延伸率、可阳极氧化铝合金,面向航空航天、交通运输和赛车运动。双方表示合作将不限于上述两种材料,而是旨在建立面向下一代3D打印铝合金开发的长期框架。
