With the DMLS 3D printing process, 3D printed metal components can be created directly from a computer model. DMLS stands for "Direct Metal Laser Melting" and is used in additive manufacturing. The basis for the 3D printing material is a metal alloy (metal material) in powder form.
In the 3D printer, a thin layer of this metal powder is applied to the plate. Then a powerful laser welds the powder precisely in the areas specified by the CAD software. In this way, a layer of the 3D-printed metal part is created. The process repeats until the component is completely printed.
