Production Printing
Additive Printing Makes It All Possible
GE Dual Concept Laser Direct Metal Printer
At BasTech, we’re Making the Future by bringing 3D Direct Metal Production Printing (DMP) and prototyping directly to our customers. With additive manufacturing, we build highly complex or organic geometries parts quickly and cost-efficiently.
Direct Metal is an additive manufacturing technology that builds high-quality complex metal parts from 3D CAD data. In the machine, a high-precision laser is directed to metal powder particles to selectively build up thin horizontal metal layers one after another. This cutting-edge technology allows for the production of high-quality metal parts not possible using traditional subtractive or casting technologies.
