Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) is an additive manufacturing technology that produces metal prototype and production parts in a matter of hours. DMLS utilizes a variety of metal and alloy materials to create strong durable parts from 3D CAD data without the need of tooling. Metal parts built with this technology have the design versatility of layer additive manufacturing while possessing the mechanical properties and appearance of metal materials.

DMLS is an accurate technology that is excellent at reproducing fine feature detail. This technology is ideal for smaller prototypes, high-temperature applications, custom medical and dental parts, aerospace components and tough functional prototypes.

DMLS Advantages

  • Creation speed and accuracy
  • Strong and durable
  • Fine feature detail

DMLS Applications

  • Functional Prototypes — Tough prototypes that can be used for functional tests
  • High-Temperature Applications — Quickly manufacture parts that can withstand high heat
  • End-Use Parts — Low-volume production without tooling expense and lead times

DMLS Industries

  • Medical Instruments
  • Dental
  • Aerospace
  • Automotive
  • Surgical Implants

  • SolidView
    SolidView® software allows you to view, rotate, measure and communicate design intent with non-CAD users—starting with our free 3D CAD viewer—SolidView/Lite.
  • Prototypes
    PolyJet™ & SLA® provide accurate concept models and master patterns in record time. Complete in-house finishing capability for production-like prototypes.
  • SLS & DMLS
    SLS® produces rugged Nylon 11 and Nylon 12 prototype and production parts. DMLS utilizes metal and alloy materials to create strong metal parts without tooling.
  • FDM
    FDM (fused deposition modeling) produces both prototype and production parts from ABS plastic, polycarbonate, and Ultem materials.
  • CNC
    CNC prototypes, parts and master patterns are ideal in applications where the material property or size requirements make other prototyping techniques unsuitable.
  • Cast Urethane
    Cast Urethane (a proprietary advanced casting technology and advanced formula polymers) produce strong pre-production and short-run production components.
  • Composites
    Composites (fiber reinforced plastic) technology produces large, rigid, accurate panels with excellent strength-to-weight ratio and surface finish.
  • Tooling
    Tooling from Solid Concepts provides quick-turn tooling options for Chinese tooling & production, export tooling from China, and domestic tooling, all with domestic project management.
  • Molding
    Molding from Solid Concepts brings you the best of both worlds by providing Chinese pricing and lead times along with Solid Concepts quality and domestic project management.
