Discover how hot isostatic pressing (HIP) supports the next step in metal additive manufacturing industrialization. In this training session, Jim Shipley from Quintus Technologies explains how HIP helps improve part density, fatigue performance, ductility, fracture toughness, corrosion resistance, surface quality, and repeatable mechanical properties in additively manufactured components.
The training covers key HIP fundamentals, including pressure, temperature, time, argon atmosphere, densification, porosity removal, diffusion, creep, and plastic deformation. It also introduces advanced capabilities such as High Pressure Heat Treatment (HPHT™) — integrated heat treatment inside the HIP, and Quintus Purus® for cleaner processing and reduced risk of oxidation and alpha case in titanium parts.
You will also learn how HIP can support faster AM production, including examples of speed printing, IN718, dense shell/contour strategies, reduced build time, and improved productivity without compromising material quality. Real application examples include aerospace, medical implants, rocket engines, titanium alloys, nickel alloys, copper alloys, and lattice structures.
This is a collaboration with EOS, part of their Additive Mind Academy – the Process Science and Engineering Metal AM Certificate Program.
