Selective Laser Melting DMLS/SLM/PBF
The professional 3D printing technology of metal laser melting – DMLS / SLM/PBF – allows to build a part in a definitve metallic material.
A 3D printed metallic part has a behaviour and mechanical properties identical to the same part obtained in a traditional way, by CNC machining or casting.
The 3D printed parts could be then post-process by heat treatment , surface treatment or machining.
