Selective Laser Melting Services: Dense Metal Parts by SLM 3D Printing
When a part’s geometry defeats machining or casting, metal additive manufacturing steps in. Selective laser melting services use a fiber laser to fuse metal powder layer by layer into fully dense components with complexity that traditional processes cannot match. This guide explains what SLM is, which materials and densities are achievable, the design freedom it […]
Metal 3D Printing (DMLS): Complex Geometry, No Tooling
Metal 3D Printing (DMLS): Complex Geometry, No Tooling Metal 3D printing—more precisely called Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) or selective laser melting—has moved from a prototyping novelty to a production-ready manufacturing process. Unlike subtractive methods that cut material away, metal 3D printing builds parts layer by layer directly from a CAD file, with no fixtures, […]
