Scheftner Starbond Powders are nickel-free cobalt-chromium alloy powders for laser melting (SLM/LPBF) of dental crowns, bridges and frameworks. Available as Starbond Easy Powder 30 and Starbond CoS Powder, they’re ideal for labs that want strong, ceramic-ready metal restorations from their metal 3D printer.
Key benefits:
• Nickel-, cadmium- and beryllium-free CoCr
• Excellent ceramic veneering
• Sourcing and support through Nowak
