Direct metal printing (DMP) 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 the material to selectively build up thin horizontal metal layers one after the other. This cutting edge technology allows for the production of dental next day RPD’s, crowns, bridges and implant bars.
DMP is a powerful 3D printing technology that is suitable for fast dental application cycles for production of RPDs, crowns, bridges and implant bars. This technology is applied to build up material in layers instead of removing it in different steps. The metal powder particles pinpointed by the laser quickly and fully melt so that the new material properly attaches to the previous layer, without glue or binder liquid. A powerful laser with high energy intensity operates in the inert area inside the machine. This guarantees that the dental metal parts being built exhibit a smooth surface.
