Eplus3D has announced the release of the EP-M400 to add a new metal 3D printer to its quad laser range. The new machines are designed for increased productivity as well as faster, more cost effective industrial production and are available in single, dual or quadruple laser configurations.
The EP-M400 features a 405 x 405 x 450 mm standard build chamber. Through its wind farm design and multi-laser scanning strategy, the company says it is able to ensure high standards and consistency of component performance while achieving production efficiency.
According to Eplus3D, EP-M400 is capable of using nickel-based alloys, tool steels, die steels, aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, copper alloys, etc. The system also comes in an open system format, which the company says allows customers to customize and tweak parameters to develop a "dedicated application parameter package."
The company says the EP-M400 is tailored for customers looking to expand their large metal printing operations as well as those beginning to dabble in the technology.
The new system is based on the EP-M650 and EP-M1250 multi-laser families, the latter of which has been announced as a finalist for the 2023 TCT Award in the Hardware - Non-Polymer Systems category.
Launched in November 2022 ahead of Formnext, the Nine Laser EP-M1250 printer features a build volume of 1258 x 1258 x 1350 mm and is compatible with titanium, aluminium, martensie-aged steel and stainless steel, as well as nickel base and chromium-cobalt alloys.
Eplus3D will be on display May 2-4 at Booth #4653 of RAPID + TCT 2023 at McCormick place, Chicago, IL.
