ArcelorMittal, a global company in sustainable steel solutions, and HP, announce a strategic collaboration to advance the field of steel additive manufacturing.
ArcelorMittal acknowledges HP’s technical expertise by selecting HP's Metal Jet S100 technology to develop steel additive manufacturing. HP credits ArcelorMittal with promising results with their steel powders, demonstrating robustness for binder jetting technology.
By combining HP’s expertise in printing and existing production in additive manufacturing with ArcelorMittal’s leadership in sustainable steel solutions, the collaboration aims to promote steel additive manufacturing.
The companies anticipate lower cost per part: adopting a holistic approach to unlock a range of accessible parts for 3D printing, particularly in automotive. They also aim to extend material options: developing steels with properties not available with conventional manufacturing.
The proposed working model involves HP and ArcelorMittal collaborating to bring new steel solutions to a sufficient Technology Readiness Level (TRL) and then leveraging ArcelorMittal Research Center for applications as an incubator for new applications developed in collaboration with customers.
“We are thrilled to collaborate with HP in advancing steel additive manufacturing,” says Aubin Defer, chief marketing officer, ArcelorMittal Powders. “This collaboration leverages our combined expertise to develop innovative solutions to drive the industry forward. The promising results of our steel powders with HP’s binder jetting technology are a testament to the potential of this partnership.”
A spokesperson from HP adds, “We are excited to join forces with ArcelorMittal to push the boundaries of steel additive manufacturing. This collaboration will enable us to leverage our technical expertise and ArcelorMittal’s leadership in sustainable steel solutions to create groundbreaking advancements in the industry. Combining the steel expertise of ArcelorMittal and HP Additive Manufacturing positioning in high volume production offers a unique value proposition for the manufacturing industry.”
