Material
Titanium (Ti₆Al₄V)
Ti₆Al₄V is one of the most widely used alloys in metal 3D printing. It offers excellent mechanical strength, high strength-to-weight ratio, and superior corrosion resistance, making it an ideal choice for the aerospace, automotive, and medical industries. This material is highly suitable for functional prototypes, end-use parts, and spare parts.

*Values for tensile specimens according to DIN EN ISO 6892 status as built
Actual values may vary with build conditions.
Strong tensions due to part geometry may distort parts, potentially leading to greater deviation in values. Values for surface roughness depend on the orientation of the surface; downward-facing surfaces and surfaces with support will be rougher.
These values show the material characteristics with additional stress relief heat treatment. Extra heat treatment steps, hot isostatic pressing (HIP), or aging for even higher mechanical properties may be possible, e.g. for serial-produced parts.
