SLM Solutions Group has received an order by MAN Energy Solutions (“MAN ES”), a leading technology solutions provider and a subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group, for an NXG XII 600. The powerful 12-laser Selective Laser Melting system is well suited for the energy sector as it can meet the needs for a broad spectrum of robust, highly stressed applications that call for stringent mechanical properties.
It was in the air, and now it’s official. TRUMPF has acquired the joint venture with SISMA in Italy completely which means the German company’s additive business will now focus on the medical and dental businesses as well.
The system is particularly suitable for prototype development and small-series production. Typical areas of application for such components printed with DELO materials include the automotive and microelectronics industries, as the materials are highly resistant to temperature and media and have properties similar to those of high-performance plastics.
