Selective Laser Melting machines from SLM Solutions feature multi-laser options, bi-directional recoating and closed-loop powder handling to achieve best-in-class safety and increased build speeds for complex and completely dense metal parts.

Ready for Industrialization and Series Production

Discover the right Selective Laser Melting System to suit your production process!

Our robust SLM® machines offer fast, reliable and cost-efficient part production. We work with you at each stage of the process to elevate use of the technology, ensure your return on investment is maximized and keep SLM® machines running at peak performance at your facility.

As the innovation leader in the selective laser melting field, SLM Solutions focuses on both productivity increases and material characteristics. SLM® machines offer efficient processing of reactive and non-reactive materials for high-quality build parts.

SLM Solutions helped invent the laser powder bed fusion process, was the first to offer multi-laser systems and all selective laser melting machines offer patented quality, safety and productivity features.

SLM Solutions machines are equipped with high-technology features that ensure a closed-loop powder handling an inert atmosphere to protect the operator from exposed powder.

Whether it is the material, the consistent quality of components or tools for quality assurance, SLM® machines are equipped with high-tech features that ensure high accuracy in every process step.

Increased productivity is crucial for production-oriented machines. SLM Solutions multi-laser machines are tailored to your needs to speed up your production.

Productivity

  • Multi-laser strategy with up to four 700 W lasers working simultaneously on one or multiple build parts
  • Laser Overlap areas further increase productivity
  • Bi-directional recoating further decreases laser off time
  • Different Layer thicknesses up to 90µm
  • Automation and parallelization of processes to maximize systems throughput

 

Safety

A safe machine environment, following industrial standards is a basis for the use of additive manufacturing systems in an industrialized serial production. SLM Solutions machines provide a buquet of techniqual features to make them robust and ready for your standards. 

Example needed? Ever thought about waste disposal? Our permanent filter module caughts soot and condensate dry and safe. The result:

  1. Clean gas returns to the process chamber
  2. Increased Machine uptime
  3. Stabilized gas flow
  4. Reduced consumable costs at increased safety

Open Architecture

You want to have the choice? Nothing easier than that.

SLM® machines provide a system that grows with the user with open doors enabling customization to enhance your system performance. Catch up the flexibility!

Powder Variability You are free to choose your powder in all machines. Traditional and advanced powders with ensured quality by SLM Solutions, or even external powders

Open Process Parameters Our open system allows you to optimize anything yourself. Or simply benefit from our experience and let us help you realizing ultra-fine feature resolutions and remarkably surface finishes. 

Variable Control and modification Our software families include machine, material and part settings. Each material can include several build strategies and SLM® machines accommodate infinite material combinations. There is a total control of system variables at all levels.

Repeatable Quality

Working at industry standards quite often means, that a gap-free monitoring & controlling of all, for part quality relevant, process parameters are mandatory. No problem for SLM Solutions. Our machines provide such innately.

Our perfect team up consisting of

  • Melt Pool Monitoring (MPM) to analysis to identify potential irregularities during fusion
  • Laser Power Monitoring (LPM) to permanently document the target and the actual emitted laser output during the entire production process
  • and the the Layer Control System (LCS) , which is a testing and documentation system for examination of the performance of each powder layer
