Additive Manufacturing by selective laser melting (SLM) in powder bed

  • Highly complex components with function integration
  • Internal close-contoured cooling channels
  • Weight optimisation due to lattice and honeycomb structures as well as topology-optimised components
  • Simultaneous build-up of different designs
  • Shorter product development times by quickly available prototypes made of series materials

rePLUG – The powder module for fast material change

  • Automated powder handling: Integrated powder-recycling for maximum efficiency and highest work-safety due to closed material cycle 
  • One material per rePLUG – Any expansion of the material range due to modular changing system for contamination-free changeover
  • Integrated sieving and powder drying functionality under inert gas atmosphere
  • Industrialized powder fill-in-interfaces and precise weight detection in main tank
  • Optional: rePLUG FLEX - the additional powder module, especially developed for the material and process parameter development on the series system
