Oerlikon Metco Expands Access to MetcoMed™ Materials via MyMetco Webshop

Engineered specifically for laser beam powder bed fusion (LBPBF), MetcoMed™ materials are
designed to meet the demanding mechanical, biological, and process requirements of orthopedic and
dental implant production. With controlled chemistry, optimized particle size distribution, and rigorous
quality standards, the portfolio supports consistent processing and scalable additive manufacturing.

The MetcoMed™ portfolio includes two medical-grade alloys:
MetcoMed™ Ti64 G23-C, with a particle size distribution of -53+20 μm, is a titanium alloy based on
Ti6Al4V, offering excellent biocompatibility, high strength, good ductility, and corrosion resistance.
Optimized for LBPBF, the material delivers a tensile strength of over 1000 MPa at 10% elongation and
provides a direct drop-in feedstock solution for most powder bed fusion systems.
MetcoMed™ CoCrMo F75-A, with a particle size distribution of -45+15 μm, is a cobalt chromium
molybdenum alloy designed for demanding implant applications such as dental restorations and total
hip and knee replacement components. The material combines high strength and ductility with low
carbon content preferred for implant use, achieving a tensile strength of 1050 MPa with 35%
elongation, and features a particle size distribution tailored for consistent LBPBF performance.

“Medical additive manufacturing requires materials that perform consistently—not only in the final
implant, but throughout the entire production process,” said Colin McCracken, product manager for
biomaterials and titanium at Oerlikon Metco. “With MetcoMed™, customers benefit from application
specific materials backed by decades of materials science expertise and proven industrialization
capabilities. And now we are excited to offer our customer the convenience to source these products
through MyMetco”

By offering MetcoMed™ materials through MyMetco, Oerlikon Metco offers an integrated sourcing
solution for medical-grade additive manufacturing materials supported by its global manufacturing and
distribution network. MetcoMed™ materials are available for immediate purchase via MyMetco—
