HLH Prototypes LTD: A Leading Provider of Direct Metal Laser Sintering Services for Various Industries

Do you need to make a metal prototype or end-use part quickly and cost-effectively? HLH Prototypes Ltd. can help you with its direct metal laser sintering (DMLS) 3D printing service. Laser-based additive manufacturing technology uses powdered metals (such as tool steel, aluminum, titanium, copper, and stainless steel) and carefully sinters them one layer at a time. This process can realize highly complex geometries that would be more expensive or challenging to make with other 3D printing technologies.

If you’re familiar with selective laser sintering, DMLS works similarly. The only difference is the type of materials for building your parts. HLH Prototypes also offers SLS 3D printing if you require functional and durable plastic prototypes with complex shapes. Both processes can print parts without requiring support structures, and this helps save time and money by avoiding excessive post-processing.

Why use DMLS?

Many customers rely on HLH Prototypes Ltd. to make functional metal prototypes and end-use parts with complex features and shapes. One of the benefits of direct metal laser sintering is it can craft complex geometries, making it useful for parts that must show more detail over being structurally sound. Moreover, it fulfills projects that require part consolidation or weight-saving applications.

Additionally, HLH Prototypes can modify its DMLS 3D printing process to accommodate low-volume production cost-effectively and quickly. This is why the company is the go-to additive manufacturing partner of many medical, aerospace, and automotive product designers, engineers, and companies.

Alternative to conventional manufacturing methods

DMLS 3D printing can be a cost-effective and quicker alternative for complex parts that can be more expensive or time-consuming to make with casting or machining. Plus, it can deliver the mechanical properties necessary for aerospace parts without compromising design freedom. HLH Prototypes has extensive experience delivering fully functional DMLS 3D-printed prototypes and parts, including production tools, rigid housing, spare parts, ductwork, and insert and mold tooling.

Get design tips from the experts.

Direct metal laser sintering usually doesn’t require support and post-processing. However, some parts that require tight tolerances, threads, and holes might still need it for smoother, high-quality results. If you’re unsure about this, don’t hesitate to engage the experts at HLH Prototypes for advice.
