Uses for the MTT SLM Process include high quality metal parts for permanent medical implants, complex stents, hip joints, dental implants and bridges to exact details in titanium, stainless steel and cobalt-chrome alloys using CT or CAD data. Other applications are in direct tooling for sheet metal forming, pressure die casting, injection molds with conformal cooling and finite metal parts.

| º |
SLM builds high quality medical parts and tooling inserts from almost any type of metal powder: Stainless steel, tool steel, titanium, cobalt-chrome, aluminium and many other alloys.
|
| º |
Special and expensive proprietry metal powders are not required for the MTT SLM Process.
|
| º |
SLM offers a dense and homogeneous build up of medical components and tool cavities with up to 100% density depending on requirements.
|
| º |
SLM is fast and low cost because post processing such as heat treatment or infiltration of finished components is not required to improve the metal properties.
|
| º |
Same day process: produce the component (medical implant, insert, press or mold part) literally within hours. Fully automatic building process - parts overnight.
|
| º |
Produces tools and inserts with internal undercuts and channels for conformal cooling to improve injection molding cycle times and plastic part quality though improved cooling.
|
| º |
High resolution process to produce fine surfaces, dimensionally accurate, low heat generation so no distortion of thick or thin parts.
|
| º |
Quick building process - 5-20 cm³ dense steel per hour on average.
