Metal printing with LPBF
Manufacturing with Laser Powder Bed Fusion
At Primary, we laser powder bed fusion to produce metal components. Our LPBF machine prints steel parts with material properties comparable to wrought steel.
The process uses uses inert gas, metallic powder, and a laser to melt layers into a solid, single metal part.
Post-processing like annealing or heat treating is typically required.
Advantages
Production-grade metal components
Complex shapes
Part size and weight reduction
Properties comparable to wrought metals
