Detailed Description
AconityLAB
AconityLAB uses a laser beam to selectively melt an area of metal powder based on a 3D model of a component, then repeating it layer by layer until the final geometry is obtained.
The machine is unique in that it is reconfigurable, both in terms of software and hardware. This enables the user to have complete freedom and control over the various processing parameters they can use, as well as the ability to change the machine components.
The ACONITYLAB is a truly modifiable lab system which can either be equipped with process monitoring tools, vacuum option or high-temperature preheating of up to 1200 ̊C. Its build volume is Ø 170mm x H 200mm.
The AconityMINI
The AconityMINI uses a laser beam to selectively melt an area of metal powder based on a 3D model of a component, then repeating it layer by layer until the final geometry is obtained.
The machine is unique in that it is reconfigurable, both in terms of software and hardware. This enables the user to have complete freedom and control over the various processing parameters they can use, as well as the ability to change the machine components.
The AconityMINI is an entry-level laboratory system with a build volume of Ø 140mmx H 200mm and is designed for efficient material research. It can be equipped with a preheating device, process monitoring or changed laser configuration.
