Metal additive manufacturing integrates comprehensive technologies such as powder bed laser fusion, metal binder jetting and laser cladding. MPBF™(Metal Powder Bed Fusion), as used by EPLUS 3D metal 3D printers, follows the principle of the proven PBF technology for almost 30 years, and is now the standard in metal 3D printing for direct industrial production. The MPBF method is primarily applied for manufacturing in demanding industries such as aerospace, automotive, dental, healthcare, tooling and machinery. Those industries demand uniform part quality with high performance properties like those achieved by conventional casting or forging processes.
