Selective Laser Melting SLM Solutions

SLM: Selective laser melting (selective laser melting), is a 3D printing technology for metal materials. Selective laser melting process: uses software to generate 3D CAD slice models for parts orders, and after obtaining the size data of each section, uses a laser as an energy source, combined with the size data, to selectively scan metal powder layer by layer. By spreading powder layer by layer, scanning the melting, solidification, and accumulation methods layer by layer, the effect of metallurgical bonding is achieved, and finally the metal parts designed by the model are obtained.

SLM 3D printing technology

• SLM can produce parts with complex shapes without specific molds, improving production efficiency and saving mold production costs.
• The product has high precision. The laser is used to irradiate the surface of the metal powder to rapidly heat and melt the surface. It can be processed by the movement of the manufacturing platform to produce high-precision parts.
• Wide range of selective laser melting applications: SLM technology is applicable to almost any metal material, including titanium alloy, stainless steel, and aluminum alloy.
• Structures that are difficult to form with some molds can be produced. If cellular type products.

Materials for SLM:

SLM materials: Such as: Titanium alloy, aluminum alloy, stainless steel, high strength steel, copper alloy, tungsten alloy and so on.

Selective Laser Melting Advantages

SLM 3d printing technology is widely used in aviation, aerospace, automobile, industrial mold, medical and other fields. SLM technology produces parts with high density, high strength, and high precision, and can print complex-shaped parts such as cams, bases, and thin-walled structures. In the medical field, SLM solutions is applied to manufacture medical devices such as prostheses, which can quickly print out suitable prostheses according to individual needs, greatly improving the efficiency of surgery and the quality of treatment.
