What Is Metal 3D Printing?
Metal 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, uses metal powders that are fused together layer by layer using advanced laser-based technologies. This process allows for the creation of complex geometries with high precision, producing near fully dense metal parts that meet the highest industrial standards.
Additive Manufacturing Using Metal Powders
In metal 3D printing, metal powders are precisely laid down and fused using lasers, building the part layer by layer. This allows for parts with intricate designs and minimal material waste.
Laser-Based Fusion (DMLS / SLM)
Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) and Selective Laser Melting (SLM) are laser-based fusion technologies used in metal 3D printing to melt metal powders, ensuring high accuracy and density in the final product.
Produces Near Fully Dense Metal Parts
Metal 3D printing produces parts with near full density, ensuring high strength and durability, making them ideal for aerospace, automotive, and medical applications.

Design Guidelines for Metal 3D Printing
Effective design choices are crucial in ensuring the strength, durability, and manufacturability of metal 3D printed parts. The following guidelines provide detailed specifications to help optimize your designs for the best performance and cost-efficiency.
Design Parameter | 仕様 |
最小肉厚 | Minimum wall thickness for metal 3D printing is typically 0.4 mm for most materials; thinner walls may reduce part strength and durability. |
Feature Size Limits | Smallest feature size: 0.2 mm; features below this size may affect print quality and strength. |
Support Structure Considerations | Parts with overhangs greater than 45° require support structures to ensure proper printing. These structures must be designed for easy removal post-print. |
Orientation for Strength | Orient parts to optimize strength in critical areas. For example, vertical orientation provides maximum strength along the build layer. |
Cost-Reduction Design Tips | Simplify parts by consolidating multiple components into a single print. Avoid unnecessary internal voids and over-complicated geometries to lower costs. |
Internal Geometries | Design internal structures such as lattice patterns for lightweight components while maintaining strength. Ensure internal features are accessible for support removal. |
Tolerance and Accuracy | Typical tolerance for metal 3D printing is ±0.1 mm. For high-precision parts, consider post-processing options like machining to improve tolerance. |
素材の選択 | Choose materials based on the application. For instance, インコネル for high-temperature resistance, チタン for aerospace parts, and 316L Stainless Steel for medical applications. |
Surface Finish Considerations | Metal 3D prints typically have a rough finish that may require post-processing such as bead blasting or polishing for aesthetic or functional purposes. |
