A NEW world-class generative process developed for direct product realisation with SELECTIVE LASER MELTING (SLM)

A new rapid tooling machine that for the first time makes it possible to produce 100% dense metal parts from customary metal powder.

The parts or especially tools are built layer-by-layer (30 µm thickness) known from other rapid prototyping methods.

In the process the used metal powder (e.g. stainless steel 1.4404) is locally melted by an intensive infrared laser beam that traces the layer geometry.

It is possible to build the finest details like thin vertical walls of less than 100 µm tickness. Directly after the production process the manufactured parts or tools show a surface roughness of approx. 10-30 µm for Rz.

Key features of the MCP RealizerSLM;

  • Builds finished parts and tooling inserts in almost any type of metal materials: MCP Low Melting Point Alloys, zinc, bronze, stainless steel, tool steel, titanium, chromium-cobalt.
  • No special proprietary powders required.
  • Dense and homogeneous build up of medical components and tool cavities up to 100% depending on requirements.
  • Fast and low cost because no post processing required - for example heat treatment or infiltration.
  • Same day process with CAD data files, produce inserts, press or mould parts literally within hours.
  • Produces tools and inserts with internal undercuts and channels for conformal cooling for quicker cycle times for injection moulding.
  • High resolution, dimensional accuracy no distortion.
  • High speed building process - 5 cm3 dense steel per hour on average.
  • Fully automatic building process - parts overnight!

    NEW: Titanium Implants and Components

    • High Strength • Low Weight • Biocompatible
    The MCP Realizer SLM with the Selective Laser Melting Process is worldwide the very first technology which will build complex, pure titanium implants and components "while you wait" using CT, MRI or CAD data files. In only 2 to 3 hours the MCP Realizer SLM will build and create highly complex shapes such as cylindrical mesh or lattice constructions.
