Praxiseinsatz der LaserCUSING-Technologie im Formenbau und weiteren Anwendungsgebieten

Selective Laser Melting is an additive manufacturing process which is used for the manufacture of mould and die inserts for plastics injection moulding or lightmetal diecasting processes with conformal cooling channels, low series production parts (e.g. individual implants, motorsport components etc.) or functional prototypes. This presentation gives an overview of new applications and ongoing research projects in the fields of tool and die making via selective laser melting (e.g. die forging, press hardening), adaptronic components, medical implants (e.g. patient-specific implants or implants with structured surfaces) and design components.
