Industrial 3D printer for metal. What it looks like, what it can and why it is needed. We will talk about this in this post.

Let's start with perhaps the most famous 3D printer SLM Solutions 280. At one time, this 3D printer blew up the metal 3D printing market. There is even a company in Germany called FITin which the 3D farm purely from these 3D printers.

The manufacturer completes the 3D printer with several types of lasers: 400/700/1000 W. Below are the specifications of the printer:

Printing technology

SLM - Selective Laser Melting of Metal Powder.
