TPM3D P360 Industrial 3D Printer

The TPM3D P360 is an industrial-grade selective laser sintering (SLS) 3D printer within TPM3D’s Performance series product line. This additive manufacturing system features a 60W COâ‚‚ laser that achieves scanning speeds of 15,000 mm/s. The P360 model implements 5 core industrial manufacturing processes: powder distribution, laser sintering, temperature control, layer formation, and build platform movement.

The P360 integrates a liquid crystal display interface for system operation, providing 3 primary control functions: parameter adjustment, process monitoring, and error management. The control system connects directly to Windows 10 operating software with STL file format compatibility, incorporating the Voxeldance Additive software that provides comprehensive pre-processing, post-processing, and system control functions. The printer offers TPM3D’s established safety features including built-in filtering systems, oxygen detection, and cooling modules that maintain precise CE-certified manufacturing conditions throughout the SLS printing process.

The P360 serves 6 specific industrial sectors: automotive, aviation, medical treatment, electronics, scientific research, and education. The printer produces functional components with minimum layer thicknesses of 60 microns and build speeds between 10–25 mm/h, achieving comparable production rates to larger TPM3D systems. For example, the P360 processes the same 4 material types as its S-series counterparts: PA11, PA12, PA12 GF, and TPU in multiple colors including black, white, and custom options. The P360’s industrial applications include production of large functional parts, R&D prototypes, functional models, and specialized equipment components that previously required traditional manufacturing methods, making it a direct replacement for small-batch injection molding processes under specific production requirements.

Print quality

The TPM3D P360 produces parts through its 60W COâ‚‚ laser system with a precise laser beam diameter of 0.25 mm. The printer builds layers between 0.06 mm and 0.2 mm thickness, with 0.12 mm set as the standard production resolution. For example, this resolution allows the production of functional prototypes with surface roughness values comparable to industrial parts, according to TPM3D’s technical documentation for their P series SLS industrial 3D printers. The laser operates at 15,000 mm/s scanning speed. The system achieves consistent build speeds between 10–25 mm/h, identical to the production rates documented for the P550DL model in TPM3D’s product documentation.

The P360 maintains strict thermal specifications with maximum operating temperatures of 230 °C for the powder bed and 160 °C for the build chamber. This thermal control system prevents part deformation through 3 specific mechanisms: uniform heat distribution, precise temperature maintenance, and controlled cooling. For example, the advanced thermal management enables production of parts with dimensional accuracy within ±0.1mm over 100mm distances, similar to specifications stated for other TPM3D Performance series 3D printers.

Materials

The P360 supports 4 primary material types: PA11, PA12, PA12 GF (glass-filled), and TPU in multiple colors. These industrial-grade powders perform optimally with the printer’s thermal management system that maintains precise temperatures of 230 °C for the powder bed and 160 °C for the build chamber. For example, the advanced thermal control system reduces part deformation risk by maintaining consistent bed temperature throughout the build process.

The P360 integrates active cooling technology into its material processing system, providing 3 distinct benefits: accelerated post-print cooling, improved thermal efficiency, and extended powder recyclability. This technology allows operators to immediately initiate cooling after print completion, significantly reducing production cycle time. For example, the advanced thermal control reduces deformation risk while enabling compatible materials to achieve their full mechanical properties even in large builds, according to technical specifications for TPM3D’s industrial printer line.

Build volume

The TPM3D P360 features a precision-engineered build chamber measuring 360 x 360 x 600 mm with an effective build space of 350 x 350 x 590 mm, providing exactly 72,275 cm³ of usable printing volume. The system accommodates 2 distinct production scenarios: manufacturing single large components up to 590 mm in height, and batch production of multiple smaller parts simultaneously. For example, the generous dimensions eliminate part segmentation requirements for automotive components measuring up to 350 mm in width, creating stronger finished products with 40% fewer post-processing steps compared to smaller build volumes. The system uses a smart single blade recoater, ensuring consistent layer formation across the entire 350 x 350 mm cross-section during production.

Printer controls and software

The TPM3D P360 operates through Windows 10 with a liquid crystal display interface designed for operator control. The system processes STL file formats exclusively and features 3 primary interface elements: display screen, control panel, and operation buttons. For example, the control interface maintains precise manufacturing parameters including 230 °C powder bed temperature and 160 °C build chamber temperature throughout the printing process. The control system enables manufacturing at scanning speeds of 15,000 mm/s while maintaining layer thicknesses between 0.06–0.2 mm, delivering industrial-grade precision as specified in TPM3D’s technical data sheets.

The P360 integrates VoxelDance Additive software for comprehensive processing control, providing 7 key functions: 3D model import, repair, orientation optimization, 3D nesting, slicing, hatching, and laser path planning. For example, the software’s efficient kernel algorithm significantly improves workflow efficiency compared to previous solutions, according to Zhao Luan, TPM3D Chairman, who described VoxelDance as offering "leading technology" during their strategic partnership announcement. The processing software handles multiple file formats including STL, while providing automated correction tools that increase production success rates through precise parameter control. This software integration creates a complete manufacturing workflow from design file to finished part, maintaining the printer’s material processing parameters and manufacturing conditions throughout the build process.

Look and feel

The TPM3D P360 features an industrial white exterior with gray trim accents. The main machine weighs 2756 lbs (1250 kg) and stands at 82.3 inches (2090 mm) tall with a footprint of 58.3 x 50.8 inches (1480 x 1290 mm). Featuring a compact design for an industrial-grade solution, the P360 integrates 4 key components into a single operational unit: main build unit, control unit, breakout station, and nitrogen generation system, creating a complete production environment that occupies 30% less floor space than systems requiring separate components.

TPM3D Powder & Part Processing Station(PPS)

The P360’s built-in nitrogen generator eliminates the need for external gas supply infrastructure, reducing installation complexity and operating costs. This integration supports 3 specific safety features: automated oxygen detection, internal filtering, and precision thermal control systems. The system achieves CE certification compliance through TÜV testing, meeting the EU’s industrial safety standards.
