Your largest parts at your highest volume
This is the one machine in the range that pairs the full 16.54 inch envelope with four lasers. Build your largest components at up to 400 cubic centimeters an hour, on a plate that goes to 39.37 inches tall with the XL configuration.
Bring outsourced parts back in-house
Large components sourced from a casting house or a specialty supplier arrive on someone else’s schedule. Producing them yourself puts the lead time, the revision cycle, and the quality record inside your own building, which matters most on the parts you currently wait longest for.
Keep expensive powder in circulation
Fully automated closed-loop powder handling collects, sieves, and returns unfused powder to the supply, so material that never became part of a build goes back into the next one.
