Metal SLM
Metal Selective Laser Melting (SLM): Precision and Performance
What is Metal Selective Laser Melting (SLM)?
Metal Selective Laser Melting (SLM) is an advanced additive manufacturing (AM) technology that uses a high-powered laser to fully melt and fuse metal powder into complex, high-performance components. Unlike traditional manufacturing techniques, SLM enables the production of lightweight, durable, and highly intricate metal parts with superior mechanical properties.
Benefits of Metal SLM
- High Precision – Produces intricate geometries with fine details and high accuracy.
- Material Efficiency – Minimizes waste by utilizing only the required amount of metal powder.
- Superior Mechanical Properties – Creates parts with excellent strength, durability, and thermal resistance.
- Design Freedom – Enables the production of complex, topology-optimized structures impossible with conventional methods.
- Rapid Production – Reduces lead times for prototypes and end-use parts.
