Metal 3D Printer
Metal 3D printers build metal parts layer by layer from digital geometry; the selected report distinguishes laser- and electron-beam melting equipment and other listed processes.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Metal 3D printer, also called metal additive manufacturing, can produce metallic products through three - dimensional and printing technology. Now it is widely used in automotive industry, aerospace industry and medical industry. Metal 3D printer works by laying down metal powder. A high powered laser then melts that powder in certain precise locations based on a CAD file. Once one layer is melted, the printer will place another layer of metal powder on top, and the process repeats until an entire object is fabricated.
