Principle of SLM Metal 3D Printing Technology

Powder-spreading metal 3D printing is an important branch of metal additive manufacturing technology. This technology uses metal powder pre-placed on a powder platform as raw material, based on the three-dimensional digital model of the part, and uses high-energy beams such as lasers or electron beams to melt the powder layer by layer on a series of two-dimensional planes discretized from the three-dimensional model, and finally manufactures three-dimensional metal parts. At present, the most widely used is powder-spreading metal 3D printing using laser as an energy source, also known as Selective Laser Melting (SLM).

The basic process of SLM processing mainly includes:

  1. Generate a three-dimensional CAD model of the metal part to be manufactured, including a model of the auxiliary support structure;
  2. The model is discretized (sliced) according to a certain orientation to obtain the contour data of each section, and the filling scanning path within the contour is generated according to certain rules and saved as an STL file;
  3. The computer reads the scanning path information file layer by layer, controls the direction of the laser beam to scan according to the planned path, melts the powder at the corresponding position on the powder bed, generates parts layer by layer, and controls the process parameters such as laser power and scanning speed to ensure the forming quality and performance of the processed parts.
The equipment is customized, and the specific parameters are subject to the solution we provide
