DMLS is an additive manufacturing process that enables the printing of complex metal parts directly from 3D CAD data. Using a high-energy laser to sinter powdered metal under computer control, the material is bound together to create a solid structure layer by layer. This process is net shape and allows for the creation of highly customized and complex parts without any additional cost.
LongPan's new rule-based design for DMLS aims to streamline the manufacturing process for metal parts, enabling efficient production, and reducing costs. The company has focused on identifying specific design rules that can be applied to DMLS, allowing for a more accurate and efficient process.
The new design rules developed by LongPan are based on several critical factors that impact the DMLS process, including material properties, part complexity, and feature shape. By analyzing these factors, LongPan has developed guidelines for designing parts that are optimized for DMLS.
"We are always looking for ways to improve our manufacturing processes," says a spokesperson from LongPan. "The development of this rule-based design for DMLS is a significant step forward, enabling us to produce complex metal parts at a lower cost and faster turnaround time."
The rule-based design developed by LongPan has already been successfully applied to several projects across various industries. Its implementation has resulted in decreased lead times from design to production, improved part accuracy, and reduced production costs.
"By simplifying the manufacturing process through efficient design, we can pass on the cost savings to our customers while maintaining the highest levels of precision," adds the spokesperson.
LongPan is committed to providing high-quality machined parts to industries, including the automobile, medical, and railway sectors. With the development of the rule-based design for DMLS, the company aims to offer even more advanced manufacturing capabilities to its customers.
The new DMLS design rules are expected to have far-reaching impacts on the manufacturing industry, enabling the production of more intricate and customized metal parts that are both cost-effective and efficient.
LongPan's commitment to innovation is evident in its adoption of advanced manufacturing technologies and its investment in developing new design rules for DMLS. With its focus on quality and efficiency, LongPan is poised to continue leading the way in providing high-precision machined parts to industries around the world.
