3D Systems Offers Direct Metal Laser Sintering Systems

By DE Editors

3D Systems Corporation (Rock Hill, SC) entered into a private label arrangement with MCP Tooling Technologies under which it will plan for the availability of the Sinterstation Pro DM100 and DM250 SLM Systems, direct metal manufacturing systems that build fully dense parts from a wide-range of metal materials for end products, prototyping, and tooling.

The DM100 and DM250 Systems build metal parts using Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology where a laser fuses metal powder into a solid, 3D part in an additive, layer-by-layer process. Using CAD data, these direct metal manufacturing systems produce accurate, detailed parts with smooth surface quality within hours without significant additional tooling.

DM100 and DM250 Systems are suited for medical, dental,  aerospace, automotive, electronics and military applications as well as for tooling and conformal cooling applications that require accurate, fully dense metal parts made from a wide selection of metals.

With a quick polish to a finished part, Sinterstation Pro DM100 and DM250 SLM Systems directly build parts in aluminum, titanium,  stainless steel, tool steels, cobalt chrome and inconel.
