High-throughput 3D metal printer
The ProX DMP 320 direct metal 3D printer is optimized for producing complex, chemically-pure titanium, stainless steel, or nickel super alloy parts.
With a high-precision fiber laser and a large build volume designed for production manufacturing, the ProX DMP 320 has exchangeable manufacturing modules that support rapid material change or replenishment, allowing manufacturers to keep pace with demanding production cycles and enabling efficient powder recycling.
The printer comes in two configurations, one optimized for titanium and one optimized for stainless steel and nickel super alloys. Centralized maintenance management, reduced argon gas consumption, and serial manufacturing workflow support combine for competitive operating cost advantages.

High-performance chamfer mills
Helical’s line of high performance chamfer mills (HPCMs) introduces a helically fluted design for free cutting and enhanced part finish. Engineered for increased running parameters, the chamfer mill saves time, increases metal removal rates, and improves longevity. Helical stocks HPCMs in 60°, 90°, and 120° angles, and 3- or 5-helical flutes. For extended tool life and cutting edge durability, all HPCMs have Helical’s APlus coating, designed for use in ferrous materials (up to 55Rc) and titanium.

Enhanced machine simulation software
Vericut 8.0 enhancements increase the ability of manufacturing engineers to analyze, optimize, and document CNC programming and machining. Intelligence gathered from the cut part and the machining process is applied for higher accuracy and efficiency. It simulates many types of CNC machining including drilling and trimming of composite parts, waterjet, riveting, robots, mill/turn, and parallel kinematics. It operates independently, but can also be integrated with CAM systems.
