AM MODULE III
The AM-MODULE III is an integrated pre-focusing beam deflection unit specifically for use in additive manufacturing. Thanks to its dust-tight housing and integrated collimating optics, the AM-MODULE III is the ideal deflection unit for use in industrial production.
In additive manufacturing, efficiency of the production line and AM equipment is the key to success. The goal is to keep the costs per part as low as possible and thus remain competitive with existing manufacturing methods. To achieve this, all aspects of the AM machine are trimmed for high exposure speeds and high reliability at the same time. After all, when a machine is down, it doesn’t earn money.
This is precisely what we kept in mind when designing the AM-MODULE III. A dust-proof housing and manufacturing in an ISO Class 7 clean room allows the use of more powerful lasers. In addition, the spot can be adjusted dynamically in diameter using the integrated zoom function without losing image quality. As a result, fine structures are exposed with high resolution and large areas can be filled with an enlarged spot diameter at constant power density and scanning speed. This makes additive manufacturing a real competitor to existing manufacturing methods and it can be used for a wide range of applications.
Combined with the integrated design and the resulting high reliability in the industrial production environment, this increase in performance enables AM users to take the next step: The step from rapid prototyping to additive production!
