Print quality

The AM3D Fast 180 SLM 3D printer can sinter layers with a minimum thickness of 20 micron that can be further adjusted to the user’s needs. Equipped with two 500W lasers (single laser operation available) as well as a powerful yet stable optical system with a maximum scanning speed of 7 m/s, the machine ensures high accuracy up to 0.05 mm, which results in richly detailed printed items.

With the Fast 180, you can create unique models of complex geometries unachievable with traditional materials and simplify the manufacturing process by directly printing your final design in metal instead of producing wax castings.

 

Materials

The AM3D Fast 180 SLM system works with a wide selection of metal powders with different properties that suit various applications. The machine is fully compatible with titanium, stainless steel, cobalt-chrome alloy, aluminum alloy, nickel alloy, etc. This lets the printer build both top-quality prototypes and end-use parts without any issues.

 

Build volume

The AM3D Fast 180 SLM 3D printer is engineered with a compact forming space of 7.1 x 7.1 x 3.9 inches (180 x 180 x 100 mm). It lets one print small to medium items as a whole, without splitting them into several parts, or smaller objects in batches. This makes for sufficient production speed and effective material usage.

In terms of dental manufacturing, the machine is capable of producing ~300 teeth in 5 hours or 30 dentures / frameworks in 6 hours.

 

Printer controls and software

The AM3D Fast 180 SLM 3D printer can be operated via an attached touch screen with a clear and user-friendly interface.

The Fast 180 SLM system is supplied with the independently developed multifunctional FastFab software. Featuring a well-organized layout with various tools and parameters, it provides streamlined workflow, straightforward controls, and step-by-step operation throughout the whole 3D printing process. Overall, the FastFab allows the machine to be effortlessly set up in just 5–10 minutes.

Thanks to the built-in camera, operators are able to easily monitor the printing process without the risk of laser radiation and control the machine remotely.

In terms of slicing, the AM3D Fast 180 3D printer comes with the manufacturer’s FastLayer software solution created for dental and industrial precision design. The program provides a variety of tools for complete layout and path planning with a single click. It also contains printing parameter databases for various metal materials, self-developed precision parameter libraries for dental cobalt-chromium and titanium alloys, and a wide range of customizable parameters. 

To improve user experience with the Fast 180, there are regular logs that record all printing process data for easy check-ups. In addition, one can boost print quality with the Help service by means of timely analysis and troubleshooting.
