Enabling the production of highly accurate, metal parts with complex geometries that exceed traditional manufacturing methods & practices LBPF – Metal can deliver.

Ideal for creating designs that are not limited by a tool path or are generated by applied mathematics / machine learning LBPF – Metal can create parts with hollow spaces, spaces within spaces, undercuts and radical angles not possible with traditional manufacturing.

In addition, through topological optimization / computational design, material usage can be reduced creating smaller, lighter & more efficient parts / designs within a given space to achieve highly efficient performance goals.

Parts produced with this technology have excellent mechanical properties including isotropic material characteristics which are more challenging to achieve with other forms of additive. Compatibility of a wide range of high performance metal alloys to include titanium, stainless steel, nickel based super alloys, tool steels and aluminum.

Robust Performance Parts

LBPF – Metal excels at creating complex parts to meet and or exceed high demand usage. ATAG Inc utilizes 3D Systems LaserForm DMP materials due their validation, optimization and testing to ensure consistent repeatable quality w/ uniform 3D mechanical properties.

Design Flexibility & Rapid Prototyping

With parts being stored digitally they cannot only be printed on demand for low to high volume production, but the design can change w/o the consequence of legacy volumes. This is ideal for scientific research, R&D, capability evolution and rapid tooling.

Consistent, accurate and durable parts

With a wide range of metal alloys DMP lends itself to part production for the most extreme environments. Offering strong, functional parts w/ material efficiency in complex geometries, applications include but are not limited to: aerospace, medical devices, oil & gas exploration, automotive and other complex industrial applications.

High throughput, High precision & real time process monitoring

With a Low O2 environment (≤ 25ppm) guarantees consistency in quality and allows for parts that must meet regulatory requirements for markets such as aerospace and medical.

Our Flex 350 has a removeable print module allowing for “hot swapping” of a new print module when the previous print has completed. Reducing downtime and increasing production throughput.

Hi potential and large parts can be achieved through our Flex’ 350 large build volume of 350mm (X) x 350mm (Y) x 350mm (Z). In situ process monitoring allows us to analyze, see and adjust the DMP process w/ synchronized images of the powder bed & melt pool.

In addition, we can look at & compare the data and imagery for an active job compared to an archived job. The result is in situ build parameter optimization and post build process analysis
