Additive manufacturing in series production

Ready for series production - under the right conditions

In certain sectors, such as medical technology, aviation or motorsport, additive series production is already a reality. The decisive factor here is not so much the volume, but the combination of design freedom, customisability and short delivery times.

One example of an industrial solution is the DMP Flex 350 Dual system from 3D Systems. The metal 3D printing machine works with two lasers and therefore achieves significantly higher construction speeds while maintaining high component quality. Its potential is particularly evident in the small series production of complex metal parts.

According to the manufacturer, the DMP Flex 350 Dual is ideal for the production of components made of titanium, Inconel or stainless steel, e.g. for aerospace components or medical implants. The closed powder handling also ensures a safe and stable production process.

Economical from 1 piece

Thanks to intelligent process control, automated powder handling and minimal set-up effort, additive manufacturing now also offers economic advantages in series production, especially for complex or multi-variant components. The quantity plays a subordinate role: customised series can be realised from the first batch - quickly, reliably and reproducibly. With systems such as the DMP Flex 350 Dual, components can not only be designed, but also specifically optimised for 3D printing. A real competitive advantage in modern manufacturing.

Conclusion:

Additive manufacturing has arrived in series production. Machines such as the DMP Flex 350 Dual make it possible to produce high-quality metal parts economically and flexibly - from individual items to small industrial batches. Investing today lays the foundation for future-proof production processes.
