SLM Capabilities
| SLA Capabilities | Data |
|---|---|
| Maximum build dimensions | Dimensions are unlimited as components may be composed of several sub-parts. The maximum build envelope is 250 x 250 x 350 mm. |
| Standard accuracy | Better than or equal to the industry standards: - DCTG 6 of DIN EN ISO 8062-3 for dimensions between 0.5 and 30 mm. - DCTG 8 of DIN EN ISO 8062-3 for dimensions between 30 and 400 mm. - DIN ISO 2768-1 c (coarse) for dimensions between 0.5 mm and 400 mm. |
| Layer thickness | 0.04 – 0.09 mm (material dependent) |
| Minimum wall thickness | - Standard grade: 1 mm.
- Performance grade: 0.5 mm. |
| Surface structure | Unfinished parts are typically rough, but various post-production finishes are possible. |
Available materials for SLM
The strength, thermal properties, low weight, and flexible post-processing of this aluminum alloy, AlSi10Mg, make it ideal for prototyping and manufacturing in industries such as automotive and aerospace.
KEY CHARACTERISTICS
- Offers the largest printing volume of all metal 3D printing materials.
- Lightweight, with good strength-to-weight ratio.
- High thermal and electrical conductivity.
- Suitable for post-machining.
- Max part dimensions: 250 x 250 x 350 mm.
Post-Processing
Part Extraction
After cooling, the SLM print's unsintered powder falls off when touched, revealing the finished part.
Powder Recovery
Recover and reuse any unsintered powder to improve resource utilization.
Media Blasting
After basic cleaning, use media blasting to completely remove powder from SLM parts, especially effective for hard-to-reach negative features.
Finishing for SLM
Blue light lenses
Spray painting in 3D printing is used to enhance the aesthetic and qualities of 3D printed part.
It applies a fine mist of paint using a spray gun or aerosol can.
Spray painting provides a uniform and smooth finish and a wide range of color options based on Pantone color.
Spray painting helps hide layer lines and minor imperfections efficiently and add protective layers.
