DMLS / SLM Builds
Laser-based metal powder fusion produces dense near-net-shape components from industrial alloys.
3D printing process
Metal 3D Printing
Metal additive manufacturing for complex industrial parts, lightweight structures, internal channels, and near-net-shape components.
- DMLS and related metal additive processes for complex, high-value parts.
- Useful for internal channels, lattice structures, lightweight brackets, and conformal-cooled inserts.
- Critical surfaces, threads, bores, and datums can be finished by CNC post-machining.

Process overview
Metal Printing Capabilities
Each 3D printing process page follows the same review path: choose a process, upload part data, confirm material and finish needs, then lock the submitted quote snapshot before order confirmation.
Internal Channels
Conformal cooling, hollow sections, and lattice features can reduce weight or improve thermal behavior.
Aerospace and Medical Fit
Titanium, Inconel, stainless, and aluminum options support demanding prototype and production needs.
Post-Machining
CNC finishing can control interfaces, threads, bores, flatness, and sealing faces after printing.

Ti-6Al-4V
Lightweight titanium for aerospace, medical, and high-strength structures.
Inconel 625 / 718
High-temperature alloy for turbine, exhaust, and demanding industrial parts.
316L Stainless Steel
Corrosion-resistant metal for medical, food, fluid, and industrial components.
AlSi10Mg Aluminum
Lightweight brackets, heatsinks, motorsport, and aerospace prototypes.

Common questions
Questions about Metal 3D Printing
When is metal 3D printing better than CNC?
It can be better for internal channels, lattices, topology-optimized parts, or geometry that would require many machining setups.
Can critical features be machined afterward?
Yes. Critical bores, threads, sealing surfaces, and datum faces are often post-machined after printing.
Can one build use multiple metals?
Most production metal powder-bed builds use one alloy per build. Hybrid strategies require engineering review.
Impossible geometry, real metal.
