DMLS prototyping
2025-04-10
DMLS prototyping is an advanced additive manufacturing technology.
In DMLS prototyping, a high-energy laser beam is first used. This laser beam is focused on the metal powder bed and sintered layer by layer according to the pre-designed 3D model data. The metal powder used has a variety of options, such as stainless steel, titanium alloy, aluminum alloy, etc., to meet different application requirements.
In terms of accuracy, DMLS prototyping can produce very fine and complex structures. Its accuracy can reach the micron level, which is very critical for manufacturing some parts with extremely high dimensional accuracy requirements, such as high-end precision mechanical parts, medical implants, etc.
In terms of design flexibility, DMLS prototyping is not restricted by traditional manufacturing processes. Designers can freely create complex internal structures and geometries, which are difficult to achieve with traditional processing methods. For example, in the aerospace field, engine parts with complex cooling channels can be manufactured to improve engine performance.
In terms of product development cycle, DMLS prototyping greatly shortens the time. It can quickly transform design concepts into physical prototypes, facilitating timely testing and optimization. Moreover, since it is additive manufacturing, it reduces material waste compared to traditional subtractive manufacturing methods.
In terms of functional testing, the prototypes produced by DMLS prototyping not only look similar, but also have physical and mechanical properties close to the final product. It can perform a variety of functional tests, such as strength testing, assembly testing, etc., to provide strong data support for the finalization of the product. DMLS prototyping plays an irreplaceable role in the product development process in many fields.
