Expanded materials for rapid manufacturing

An expanded range of materials can now be employed with Concept Laser's LaserCUSING process, which first appeared in 2000.

New developments in materials mean that the range has been expanded to include a finer quality variant of stainless CL20 ES (1.4404) providing additional improvements in component surface finish.

The original titanium powder CL40 TI, based upon the alloy Ti6A14V, is complimented by a high purity version CL41 TI, which meets the strict requirements of ASTM standard F136 for surgical implants and further expanding the potential for direct components made from titanium.

Also, part of the ongoing development in the materials field is the introduction of a new class of cobalt-chrome based alloys. Developed as part of a working relationship between Concept Laser and Dentaurum, alloys CL110 CoCr and remanium star CL open up a host of potential applications within the dental, medical and prototype fields.
