Frequently Asked Questions: DMG Mori LASERTEC 12 SLM

How much does the DMG Mori LASERTEC 12 SLM cost?

The price estimate for the DMG Mori LASERTEC 12 SLM is uncertain: we have no price for it that we can cite and no estimate we can stand behind, so we give no figure. Configuration, tooling, automation and installation move the final price substantially. A specific price can be requested at https://machinetoolindex.com/machines/dmg-mori-lasertec-12-slm#price; the request is passed to DMG Mori or an authorised dealer.

How large a part can the LASERTEC 12 SLM build?

The build volume is 125 × 125 × 200 mm (4.9 × 4.9 × 7.9 in) in X, Y and Z. Several different designs can be built side by side in one job, but nothing larger than that envelope fits. The LASERTEC 30 SLM, at 325 × 325 × 400 mm (12.8 × 12.8 × 15.7 in), is the larger machine.

What laser does the LASERTEC 12 SLM use?

A fibre laser, with 200 W as standard and 400 W optional. DMG MORI describes the sources as application-specific. The focus diameter is 35 µm (0.0014 in), and the minimum layer thickness is 20 µm (0.0008 in).

How long does it take to change material on the LASERTEC 12 SLM?

DMG MORI states a contamination-free change between different materials in under 2 hours. That works because each rePLUG powder module is dedicated to one material and contains its own closed powder cycle, so the powder circuit is exchanged as a unit when the alloy changes.

Can third-party powders and custom parameters be used?

Yes. DMG MORI describes the LASERTEC 12 SLM as an open system: all machine settings and process parameters can be adjusted individually and the material supplier can be chosen without restriction. The optional rePLUG RESEARCH powder module is intended for material and parameter development on the series machine.

Does the powder have to be refilled during a build?

No manual refilling is required during the process, according to DMG MORI, because the powder reservoir is large. The duo filter system also allows a filter to be changed without interrupting the process, and powder recycling is integrated in the closed material cycle.
