Metal 3D printing is a process of creating objects by building them layer by layer in metal powder or wires. With precise lasers or electron beams, each layer is melted and joined together until the desired object is created. This provides incredible accuracy and freedom in design, opening up innovative solutions for different industries.
SLM uses a powerful laser to melt metal powder layer by layer. This technology provides high precision and strength and is often used in the aerospace industry and for medical devices.
DMLS is similar to SLM, but uses less energy and is better suited to printing alloys and complex geometries. It is used for everything from dental implants to prototyping machine parts.
EBM uses an electron beam instead of a laser to melt the metal, creating robust components that can withstand high temperatures. It is often used in aerospace and military applications.
Binder Jetting uses a liquid binder to assemble the metal powder layer by layer. It requires subsequent curing and sintering, but allows for fast production of larger metal parts.
Metal printed parts are extremely strong and resistant, making them ideal for industrial and technical applications where strength is essential.
Metal printing allows you to create detailed and complex shapes that could not be produced using traditional methods. This is particularly useful in industries that require precision, such as medical devices and aircraft components.
As metal 3D printing builds objects layer by layer, there is minimal waste compared to other manufacturing processes like CNC machining, making it a more sustainable solution.
Metal 3D printing makes it possible to make quick design changes without having to invest in expensive tools or molds. This makes the technology ideal for prototyping and small production runs.
In the aerospace industry, metal 3D printing is used to create lightweight but strong components. Metal printing can also create complex geometries that reduce weight without compromising durability.
Metal printing is used for custom-made medical implants and dental prostheses. With the ability to customize each product to the patient's anatomy, metal 3D printing provides both precision and personalization.
In the automotive industry, metal 3D printing is used to produce both prototypes and final components. Lab3D's service allows you to produce robust parts that can withstand wear and stress.
Metal printing is also suitable for making durable machine parts and spare parts. This comes in handy if you need a customized part made for machines that are not commercially available.
