LPM 3D Metal Printing: Precision Built for Die Casting

The LPM325 is a state-of-the-art laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) system that creates ultra-durable dies directly from metal powder. Designed for die makers who demand high precision and reliability, the LPM printer enhances tool life and reduces costly production downtime.

More Shots Per Die – Extend Your Production Runs

Traditional die-making methods struggle to create durable dies, reducing the number of shots before a mold needs to be replaced. With SVM Powder, dies built with the LPM325 withstand extreme heat and wear, lasting up to 130,000 shots in aluminum die casting—nearly 3X longer than conventional materials like stainless steel.

Reduce Warpage, Improve Cooling, Boost Performance

Our LPM metal 3D printer enables conformal cooling—a game-changer for die cast molds. By integrating cooling channels closer to the part, heat dissipation is optimized, reducing thermal stress, minimizing warpage, and improving cycle times.

SVM Powder:

H13 Performance, Optimized for 3D Printing

SVM High-Performance Powder is engineered specifically for metal additive manufacturing. Designed to match H13 tool steel properties, it delivers superior hardness, thermal resistance, and longevity—perfect for the extreme conditions of die casting.
