3D Metal Printer for Precision Components
The Coherent CREATOR 3D metal printer provides all the advantages of laser additive manufacturing. The system can easily and quickly produce parts in almost every conceivable geometric configuration, even those which are unobtainable using traditional manufacturing techniques – and all without the need for additional tooling.
The system utilizes a construction chamber with an innovative coating concept enabling accelerated and smooth operation resulting in 30% faster manufacturing speed compared to other systems on the market.
At the heart of the system is a 250 W fiber laser with high beam quality and excellent performance stability. This delivers consistent process conditions and facilitates the production of parts at high spatial resolution and with high component density.
In addition, CREATOR works directly from your CAD files, and using its own internal 3D printing module integrates with the supplied APP SUITE CAD/CAM software.
CREATOR offers an unmatched combination of speed, part quality, economy, and ease-of-use. It’s a stand-alone system that can easily be integrated into a wide variety of environments, and used by designers, engineers, and production-line personnel.
