DMLS Additive

How does it work?

Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) forms fully functional metal components from CAD models by using a precise, high-wattage laser to micro-weld powdered metals & alloys.

Advantages

  • Complex geometries with lattice structures & internal passages
  • High-resolution & fine feature details
  • Good mechanical properties
  • Wide range of materials
  • Fully dense metal parts

Production Parts

Manufacture custom or one-off parts with LMPBF or replace low-volume castings with a 3D metal part.

Functional Prototyping

Parts are fit for full-usage scenarios due to the process's characteristic hardness & durability.

Thermal Control Systems

Produce previously un-manufacturable designs, such as heat exchangers & thermal control systems as a single assembly.
