  • About Direct Metal Printing (DMP)

    DMP is a powerful 3D printing technology that shapes any desired metal part geometry by melting metal powder layer by layer. This technology is applied to build up material in layers instead of removing it in different steps. The metal powder particles pinpointed by the laser quickly and fully melt so that the new material properly attaches to the previous layer, without glue or binder liquid. A powerful fiber laser with high energy intensity operates in the inert area inside the machine. This guarantees that the metal parts being built exhibit a dense and homogenous material structure. The CAD design of the parts directly drives the DMP production machines without the need for programming, clamping or tooling.

  • DMP Applications

    Our DMP printers allow you to create metal parts while achieving fine detail, which is why DMP is perfect for a variety of applications. This includes, but is not limited to:

    • Producing complex parts that cannot be made using traditional methods
    • Conformal cooling channels and latticework
    • Enhanced fluid flow
    • Direct tool-free production of injection molding inserts and cores
    • Mass personal customization of orthopaedic, dental, and other parts
    • Parts with cavities, undercuts. and draft angles
    • Reduced-weight and light-weight design
    • Research and development
    • Simplified assemblies and part consolidation
    • Small, precision parts production
    • Topology optimization while maintaining structural integrity
  • DMP Applications

금속 프린팅의 이점

  • 가벼움

    위상학적으로 최적화하거나, 내부 공간을 비우거나, 내부에 격자 구조를 적용하거나, 어셈블리를 통합해 패스너를 줄임으로써 무게를 줄이고 무게 대비 강성 비율을 개선합니다. 

  • 부품 통합

    부품 수를 관리하고 광범위한 품질 관리 및 검사가 필요한 주요 조립 공정을 제거합니다. 부속 조립을 위한 작업이나 지그 및 고정구를 제거하여 조립 시간과 비용을 절감합니다.

  • 액체

    재검토를 통해 액체 및 기체 유량을 설계함으로써 부품 내부의 냉각, 가열, 혼합 또는 기타 액체 유량을 최적화합니다. 또한 기존 생산 기술로는 어렵지만 실제로 유체 역학에 최적화된 기하형상을 제작하여 CFD를 최대한 이용할 수 있습니다. 

  • 기능 개선

    금속 AM의 설계 자유도를 이용해 절삭 도구 박스를 벗어나 설계하고 부품 또는 제품의 기능을 늘립니다.
