BARCELONA, Spain, Oct. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HP Additive Manufacturing (HP) and Hyperion Materials & Technologies (Hyperion) today announced a Strategic Preferred Partner Agreement to advance the commercialization of tungsten carbide (WC) additive manufacturing and make production-ready components and rapid prototyping more accessible to industrial customers worldwide. In October 2026, Hyperion installed a new HP Metal Jet S100 printer at their production facility in Barcelona. Using HP's scalable binder jet additive manufacturing platform, and Hyperion's expertise in WC manufacturing, sintering, and finishing, the collaboration creates an integrated path from application development and qualification through serial production. The platform uses Hyperion's new CarbiForm™ line of tungsten carbide ready-to-print powders that are specifically designed for additive manufacturing via a binder jet printing process. CarbiForm is tested to work with HP's Metal Jet printer when paired with Hyperion's sintering operations. "This preferred partner agreement allows us to combine our decades of hard-materials experience with HP's highly scalable additive manufacturing platform," said Biju Varghese, Chief Technology Officer at Hyperion. "The result is a new manufacturing option for customers looking to create complex, high-performance tungsten carbide components and bring them to...
