The SLM®280 machine is a Selective Laser Melting system used for the production of metal parts in medium to high volume and prototypes. This machine utilizes patented multi-laser technology with up to two fiber lasers that expose the build area through 3D scanning optics.
Multi-laser systems can achieve construction rates up to 80% faster than a single laser, and the patented bidirectional powder coating minimizes manufacturing time by reducing the number of required passes to deposit fresh powder during a build.
The machine is equipped with a standard PSM powder sieve and powder change kits to allow users material flexibility while maintaining powder quality in an inert atmosphere.
