3D PRINTED METAL


Direct Metal Laser Sintering (aka DMLS) is an additive manufacturing (3D Printing) process that is similar to the Selective Laser Sintering process with a few critical differences. The main difference being the metal material as opposed to Nylon based plastics. Direct Metal Laser Sintering allows for many of the same design freedoms as Selective Laser Sintering and provides the strength of ferrous and non-ferrous metals which are used in the most demanding engineering environments. Direct Metal Laser Sintering is a game changer in the Aerospace sector as well as Medical. Fully utilizing additive manufacturing practices and process via DMLS is a driving force in the advancement of design and engineering projects where peak efficiency is critical.
