What is Stainless Steel 316L?

Selective Laser Melting [SLM]

This advanced metal 3D printing

process builds parts layer by layer by fully melting metal powder with a high-powered laser. It allows for the production of complex, high-precision components with excellent structural integrity, making it

ideal for intricate and demanding designs.

Stainless Steel 316L

is commonly used in SLM due to its outstanding corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and thermal stability. Its low carbon content also makes it highly weldable and

reduces the risk of cracking or deformation during processing.

Parts produced with SLM using 316L

are ideal for demanding applications in industries such as aerospace, medical, marine, and chemical processing,

where both performance and reliability are critical.

Accuracy

Accuracy 0.50 mm + 0.5%

For example: a product with dimensions of 50x50x100 mm can be ±0.5% with a lower limit of ±050 mm (±0.020″) bigger or smaller in any direction.

Protection

IP protection is what most people are worried about when it comes to 3D printing because we get orders in which we have to copy the original design precisely.
