Key Benefits
Core Technologies
Unique vacuum chamber concept
Consistent, low O2 environment
Reduce your cost to part by avoiding non-quality scrap issues and get access to higher-margin regulated markets like aerospace and medical, where constant quality is a requirement for certified parts. Discover these benefits, thanks to our consistently low O2 environment in the printer to guarantee consistent powder quality for high-quality parts.
Bi-directional recoating
Boost your productivity
Accelerate your productivity to reduce your cost per part, thanks to our high-performance, bidirectional recoating system that consistently and accurately deposits a fresh powder layer on each pass to reduce the time that the lasers are active.
DMP Monitoring
Real-time process monitoring
DMP Monitoring allows users to see, analyze, understand and fine-tune their metal AM process with unprecedented capability. The DMP Monitoring toolset for enhanced quality control includes real-time process monitoring, synchronized images of the melt pool and powder bed, synchronized images of active and archived jobs for comparison, and a toolset for analyzing the magnitude of a subject area, enabling:
- Real-time, in-build data collection and visualisation
- Post-build process analysis
- Build parameter optimisation
3DXpert
All-in-one integrated software for Additive Manufacturing
3DXpert is an all-in-one integrated software to prepare, optimize and manufacture 3D CAD models using additive manufacturing (AM). Supporting every step of the additive manufacturing workflow from design to post-processing, 3DXpert streamlines your process to quickly and efficiently transition from a 3D model to a successfully printed part.
System Configurations
DMP Flex 350 features
Increase your flexibility
Improve your flexibility and productivity with a Removable Print Module (RPM) that can be replaced with another RPM just after a job is finished. This also positively impacts the total cost of ownership because you can reduce downtime when switching from one material to another material by having one dedicated RPM per material.
DMP Factory 350 features
Ensure maximum safety and powder integrity
DMP Factory 350 has an integrated powder management system with high-performance sieving and automated powder conveyance. The O2-free atmosphere of the powder workflow guarantees highest part quality as well as maximum powder usage and minimizes user powder contact.
DMP Flex/Factory 350 Dual features
The DMP Flex 350 and DMP Factory 350 systems now come in a two-laser configuration, reducing build times by up to 50 percent. Boosting productivity while maintaining high quality and repeatability yields lower operational costs.
