DMG MORI’s LASERTEC 30 SLM US additive manufacturing machine helps aerospace manufacturers advance part production.

Redefining the footprint of additive manufacturing is the DMG MORI LASERTEC 30 SLM US, featuring several key advancements to deliver successful additive manufacturing in the aerospace industry. First, it addresses the growing demand for additive technologies in the U.S., as the LASERTEC 30 SLM US is designed, developed, and manufactured in the U.S. at DMG MORI Manufacturing USA in Davis, California, reducing supply chain concerns while keeping service support and spare parts within N. America.

Ensuring advanced technology of the machine delivers the success users require. Several key advancements support this. First is Adaptive Beam Control enabling dynamic changes to laser power, laser speed, and laser beam profile. Next, the system offers discrete powder tracking for critical industries so manufacturers can track the lot of material used and the amount of time the material has been cycled. Plus, contactless recoating improves the freedom and independence of powder spreading. Additionally, the LASERTEC 30 SLM US features best-in-industry production cost by using an optional innovative hybrid toolpath strategy that dynamically changes between laser beam profiles using a 1 x 1,000W programmable laser.

DMG MORI LASERTEC 30 SLM US machines offer additive manufacturing of highly complex components and parts – ideal for use in the aerospace market where a range of geometric features are found on various parts. Offering an envelope of 300mm x 300mm x 300mm, the LASERTEC 30 SLM US supports precision building of workpieces with programmable 80µm and 240µm laser beam sizes.

As companies struggle to find qualified workers, user-friendliness is key. CELOS – the app-based user interface – offers a simple software solution that covers everything from CAM programming and process parameter calculation to machine control tasks.

The machine has a 100% open system, making it simple to customize all machine settings and process parameters. Additionally, there aren’t restrictions on selecting material suppliers. Finally, the LASERTEC 30 SLM US offers seamless data transfer, enabling pre- and post-processing on high-precision DMG MORI milling centers.

DMG MORI provides solutions for the entire process chain – from the initial drawing to the finished workpiece – reinventing metal production for aerospace manufacturing.
