Technical information
How does DMLS/SLM technology work?
- The recoater carriage travels across the build area, depositing a uniform thin layer of metal powder material
- Printer uses a laser to melt metal powder and fuse it into a solid 3D printed part. Using a CAD design model, the laser melts the metal precisely at the predefined points in the powder bed
- The build plate descends slightly and the powder recoater applies another thin layer of powder on top of the previous layer. This process repeats layer by layer until the part is completed
