Selective laser melting systems have seen significant productivity increases in recent years. The increase has been gained through the development of multi-laser systems in combination with larger build volumes and higher power lasers. SLM Solutions will address several key technical developments that contribute to the robustness and productivity of the multi-laser SLM process. The impact of these developments on part quality, productivity and production cost will be reviewed. Various case studies will highlight the economical use of multi-laser SLM for qualified serial production of medical devices in titanium and cobalt-chrome alloys.
