Eplus3D has introduced its EP-M400S metal additive manufacturing, with multiple laser configurations available to users.
The EP-M00S provides users with the option of one, two, three or four lasers with multiple power levels of 500W, 700W and 1KW for each laser.
Eplus3D is confident that its user base will be able to customise the machine to meet the specific demands of its applications. The machine also offers a 400 × 400 × 450 mm build volume, a spot size of between 70 and 120 µm, the ability to produce layer thicknesses between 20 and 120 µm, and a maximum scan speed of 8 m/s. It is also compatible with Eplus3D’s Titanium Alloy, Aluminium Alloy, Nickel Alloy, Maraging Steel, Stainless Steel, Cobalt Chrome and Copper Alloy materials products.
Meanwhile, a top feeding powder hopper and bi-directional powder re-coating features are said to help reduce the dosing time by up to 30%, streamlining the powder layering process to facilitate ‘substantial time savings.’ The machine is able to refill the powder tank without interrupting the printing process, again helping to save time, while also preserving powder conditions within an inert atmosphere.
