What is
Selective Laser Melting (SLM)

Selective Laser Melting, SLM for short, is one of the most popular 3D printing technologies, specifically for building metal 3D parts. It is a technology based on Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF). Due to its ability to produce high-strength, durable parts that can be post-processed to achieve the high required precision, it is widely used in high-end industries like aerospace, medical, automotive and energy.

The process goes like other 3D printing methods, but SLM uses a high-power laser or multi-laser to selectively melt the metal powder laid on the platform. This process continues layer by layer, according to the pre-set 3D slice parameters, until all layers are completely fused together. After each layer, the platform sinks accordingly and the scraper recoats the metal powder. The thickness of the new coating is 20 to 100 µm, depending on the accuracy requirements. These steps are repeated until the entire 3D model is completed. Before the post-process the unmelted powders will be removed as well as the support.

SLM 3D printing, Game-Changer for Metal Part Manufacturing

Selective Laser Melting (SLM) 3D printing is transforming industrial manufacturing processes with several key benefits. This advanced additive manufacturing method offers unparalleled design freedom, enhancing the potential for creating complex, bespoke geometries and internal structures that would be virtually impossible with traditional manufacturing methods. Lighter, yet equally robust components, especially in aerospace and automotive industries, can be created for optimal performance due to the design flexibility SLM provides. This drastically reduces material consumption leading to cost savings and waste reduction.

SLM 3D Printing Solution For The Precise End-Use Parts

Aerospace

The integration of multiple parts into a single part is one of the biggest benefits of metal 3D printing; it means fewer parts, less weight, and higher productivity.

Automotive

Metal-AM has significance for lightweight components manufacturing. It can be also used for evaluation and testing of prototypes, especially parts with complex geometries.

Medical

End-use medical components are now easily completed with Metal-AM. Moreover, it has the ability to produce highly flexible and strong human implants, such as implants with absorbable lattice for bone defects.

Dentistry

Metal additively manufactured crowns and braces are often applied to restore teeth and make aligners, which highly meet the individual requirements of every patient.

Industrial Mold

Metal-AM is commonly used for producing conformal cooling systems, which can't be made by conventional methods, to offer more effective productivity.

Jewelry

3D printing brings new expectations to jewelry manufacturing. Designers are free to design jewelry with imaginative shapes. It also enables the full use of precious metal materials.
