Process Data Sheet

EOS Aluminium AlSi10Mg for EOS M 300-4 1kW | 80 μm

EOS M 300-4 1kW - 80 µm - TRL 3

Process Information Metal

1kW process with very high build rate to meet casting requirements. Low angle buildability and new supporting strategy enable low effort post processing.

Main Characteristics:
→ High productivity process with 1kW-laser
→ Buildability up to 20° angle
→ Easier to remove support strategy
→ Reduction in post processing
→ Good surface roughness

Typical applications:
→ General engineering components and parts subject to high loads
→ Casting parts
