DED Laser Head Configurations

The head designed for high productivity applications, allows to reach a deposition rate up to 100 cm3 / h. Inside it boasts a system patented by Prima Additive that allows you to adjust the size of the laser beam in real-time. In this way, depending on the applications, precision or productivity can be preferred depending on the needs of the individual application or component area.

Laser head equipped with a very high precision nozzle. Allows you to create walls as thin as 1 mm. With this configuration you will be able to create subtle features with which to customize components or to create large parts with very high precision and with an excellent surface quality, comparable to that obtainable using Powder Bed Fusion technology.

With this configuration it is possible to create an inert atmosphere around the deposition area. Thanks to the creation of a shielding gas around the molten puddle, highly reactive powders such as titanium or aluminum can be processed in total safety without the need to inertize the entire working chamber of the machine, thus making the processing of these materials easier and sustainable.
