Laser Powder Bed Fusion Platform Designed for Safety, Ease of Use

Much of the difficulty and safety concerns with laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) 3D printing center around the challenges of dealing with metal powders. One Click Metal’s BoldSeries platform is engineered to be approachable for labs, universities, and small to medium manufacturers with no prior experience with 3D printing; a key aspect of that approachability comes from the powder handling capabilities of this system. One Click Metal originated as a spinout from laser technology specialist Trumpf. Turning center supplier Index is now a majority investor, and this video was shot in the Index booth during IMTS - The International Technology Show. Index is finding applications for LPBF among the components of its machines; one example shown in the video is a slider trolley used in barfeeders. Redesigning the assembled component for 3D printing resulted in a design that can be manufactured at 77% lower cost, with reduced risk of part failure.
