ZRapid iSLM280 Industrial SLM 3D Printer
The ZRapid iSLM280 Industrial SLM 3D Printer utilizes selective laser melting technology, a process in additive manufacturing that melts metal powders and solidifies them layer by layer to build a three-dimensional part. During 3D printing with metal, the ZRapid iSLM280 Industrial SLM 3D Printer features a ruler in the build chamber that paves one layer of metal powder. A fiber laser then selectively fuses the powder by tracing the cross-section of the part on the surface of the powder bed. Afterward, a new coat of material is applied for the subsequent layer. This entire process takes place in a high vacuum chamber or a chamber filled with protective gas to prevent the metal powder from reacting with oxygen at high temperatures.
The ZRapid iSLM280 Industrial SLM 3D Printer is equipped with a fast galvanometer and the advanced iSLM Control System, enabling the equipment to complete complex parts in a very short period. In contrast, conventional methods might take several weeks or even months. The result is parts with precise dimensions, high tensile strength, and high density, along with excellent mechanical properties. This industrial 3D printer is primarily used for the rapid production of high-precision, high-quality metal parts.
