As a leading-edge system for Additive Manufacturing, EOSINT M 280 is the perfect solution for direct, cost-efficient manufacturing of high-quality metal tool inserts, prototypes and end products. Its high level of productivity and ergonomic periphery make the system ideal for the economical and batch-size optimised additive manufacturing of components throughout all phases of the product lifecycle.

EOSINT M 280 is based on the innovative DMLS (Direct Metal Laser Sintering) system by EOS. It produces components by means of Additive Manufacturing – fully automatically, without tools and based directly on three-dimensional CAD design data. For this purpose it is equipped with a 200 W or 400 W fibre laser which melts fine metal powder and builds up the product layer by layer. Constant monitoring of the process ensures that all components are produced in excellent, reproducible quality. This method allows you to create products with extremely complex geometries including elements such as free-form surfaces, deep slots and coolant ducts.

• Additive Manufacturing of products from CAD data by means of Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS)
• For each material you can choose between optimised surface and productivity using the EOS parameter sets

• High level of beam quality and performance stability with a 200 W or 400 W fibre laser
• Monitoring of all levels during the construction process based on EOSTATE reports
• High quality achieved in all components

• Simple integration in existing production environments
• A wide range of materials can be processed – from light alloys through to high-grade steels, tool steels and superalloys
• Modular, upgradable solutions, for example with IPCM-M or M 280 Comfort Power Module

• Low-dust, ergonomic working conditions
• Minimum requirements in terms of set-up conditions
• Data can be processed conveniently at the workplace

Laser Measurement Kit

Companies are increasingly using additive manufacturing in serial production. This is why it is becoming more and more important to ensure the quality of the construction process. The necessary information is provided by the Laser Measurement Kit: it monitors production and measures laser output before and after the construction process. Results are reported via the EOSTATE 1.2 Quality Assurance Module.

Comfort Powder Module

The EOSINT M 280 Comfort Powder Module is a new element of IPCM-M material management for EOSINT M 280 laser sintering systems. The module allows convenient handling of the powder in the closed process chamber. This minimises the risk to users of coming into contact with the material.
