The Chinese OEM has demonstrated its copper and copper alloy 3D printing, claiming it has overcome the challenges associated with copper’s low absorption and high reflectivity for red laser-powered additive manufacturing.
See how BLT is expanding metal 3D printing beyond aerospace, creating consumer goods and even manufacturing internal components for its new S1025 large-format printer.
Farsoon’s Beam Shaping Technology dynamically forms laser spots into various shapes, enhancing printing quality and efficiency, while delivering part densities exceeding 99.95%.
The technology, which was first presented at the Shanghai additive manufacturing event in 2023, can now be configured to double the laser capacity with 32 × 500W fiber lasers.
The company also suggests the update will deliver enhanced surface finish on downfacing surfaces, allowing manufacturers to create tooling components that go 'directly to moulding with even fewer post-processing requirements'.
