ES Technology to showcase selective laser melting parts

12/05/2009 00:00:00

As well as producing bespoke laser marking systems, ES Technology is also the sole UK distributor for Concept Lasers’ LaserCUSING selective laser melting systems.

LaserCUSING, a phrase coined by Concept Laser, is a process which involves the fusion of a metallic powder by a scanning laser to produce complex and intricate three-dimensional components. The subsequent layer by layer construction of the part makes it possible to design and manufacture components which would otherwise be impossible or impractical to produce by traditional machining methods. This process is was initially pioneered for the mould tool manufacturing industry, however other market segments such as Formula 1, medical device, aerospace, automotive, die-casting and academic institutions have also benefited from this unique process.

LaserCUSING® can be used to make a wide range of parts including final production components, inserts for injection moulding tools and inserts for pressure die casting. ES Technology Limited will have several examples of complex finished components, produced in materials such as steel, aluminium and titanium.
