Machines
Laser Powder Bed Fusion (LPBF) technology is one of the most widespread metal additive manufacturing (AM) technologies. A metal part is formed layer-upon-layer, as the laser power selectively melts the metal powder layer by layer. LPBF AM technology solves some of the difficulties/limitations in traditional manufacturing processes and is particularly suitable for metal parts with complex geometry, internal micro-tunnels, and special structure designs.
ET Additive is an official distributor of LPBF metal AM machines made by Aconity3D in the markets of the Czech Republic and Slovakia. Aconity3D offers several standard 3D printing machines, which cover a wide range of needs. On top, the machines can be modified easily by Aconity’s modular platform and therefore enable tailor-made additive manufacturing solutions.
