TruPrint 2000 machine with powder preparation station

TruPrint 2000 with powder preparation station

The inert machine concept of the TruPrint 2000 with powder preparation station, provides extremely easy powder and parts handling under shielding gas. This is how the printed component is inertly unpacked directly in the machine with the integrated powder feeder. The excess powder is collected in the overflow bin. This is placed in the powder preparation station, to sieve the powder for reuse into the supply cylinder, under shielding gas. The powder circuit closes so the user does not come into contact with the powder.

Integrated powder feeder

After the LMF process, the finished component separates from the powder within the process chamber with the integrated powder feeder. The substrate plate size of 200 mm in diameter allows for simple and practical handling inside the machine. With this, the necessary periphery is limited to a minimum: industrial powder management with the powder preparation station.

Fullfield multilaser

The fullfield multilaser (2 x 300 W) enables exposure of all lasers in the entire build volume, which reduces production times per component. To achieve maximum precision, calibration of the multi-laser scan fields is performed fully automatically. Additionally, the 55-µm beam diameter allows you to achieve a very high surface quality and level of detail. The low degree of surface roughness also saves you the need for refinishing.

Melt pool monitoring

Deviations in the laser metal fusion process can be detected early on via sensors, and critical areas of the component can be seen. It's also possible to monitor all weld pools in parallel – this is especially helpful with the fullfield multilaser option. Melt Pool Monitoring reduces the effort required for the application and development of certified processes with verification requirements. Quality assurance is supplemented with Powder Bed Monitoring as well as the status data of the machine.

Amorphous metals

The TruPrint 2000 enables industrial processing of amorphous metals. These metals feature exceptional strength combined with high elasticity, corrosion resistance and biocompatibility. Wall thicknesses can then be reduced and bionic structures used in component design. This results in lower component weights and shorter production times. Image source: Heraeus AMLOY

Spine cages

The TruPrint 2000 allows you to always achieve premium component quality in accordance with the most stringent of medical standards. Surface roughness improves osseointegration between bone and implant. Additive manufacturing allows you to achieve a new level of design freedom, which enables additional functions. Additive manufacturing used for spine cages allows patients to heal faster and improves long-term stability.

Removable partial dentures (RPDs)

The small 55-µm beam diameter of the TruPrint 2000 laser allows you to achieve a very high surface quality and level of detail; this is a huge advantage for dental components. The low degree of surface roughness also saves you the need for refinishing.

Knee implant

With the small 55-µm laser beam diameter of the TruPrint 2000, you benefit from a level of detail which is ideal for medical implants such as the femoral component of a total knee replacement implant. This is due to additive manufacturing, which allows for the most intricate of lattice structures to be printed; osseointegration improves significantly.

3D-printed tool inserts for injection molding

Extremely delicate cooling channels such as those found in tool inserts with conformal temperature control can be printed using the 55-µm beam diameter of the TruPrint 2000. This improves cooling of the injection molding tool, which allows the cycle time for manufacturing gearwheels to be significantly reduced.

CMF implant - cranial plate

The TruPrint 2000 enables you to manufacture individual implants that meet the highest quality standards in a specialist production environment. High-precision components using the Ti6Al4VELI material can be printed cost-effectively within a very short time using an "on demand" system, also as series production when required.

Expansion sleeve

A printed expansion sleeve made of the amorphous metal AMLOY ZR01 (AMZ4) is lightweight, which is made possible by the material's high elasticity and strength, especially when compared to crystalline materials. Complex geometries can also be printed directly in a component, eliminating the need for single parts within an assembly. Created by Heraeus AMLOY

TruTops Print with Siemens NX software package

At the beginning of the process chain for additive manufacturing is the preparation of data for the 3D design and production program. As a development partner of Siemens, TRUMPF is now offering a consistent software solution with a standard user interface without interruptions in the system with the "TruTops Print with Siemens NX" software package. The intelligent process chain of the software solution offers a high level of process reliability, as the tools for the development, simulation, 3D printing, and NC programming for metal parts are integrated in a single system, meaning it is no longer necessary to convert data in STL. The TRUMPF build processor is also integrated in the software package for slicing and hatching the build jobs, as well as for parameter management. Save on time and costs with a clear workflow.

Multilaser

Increase your productivity with the multilaser option: two TRUMPF fiber lasers, each with an output of 300 W and a 55-µm beam diameter can expose simultaneously in the build area and generate up to 80% more parts in the same time with flexibility. As such, you can ensure that parts are available more quickly and maximize flexibility when processing customer orders. As every contour is exposed by a laser, no "seam marks" are created. With the fullfield multilaser you can achieve 100% overlap coverage. The Automatic Multilaser Alignment option automatically monitors and calibrates the multilaser scan fields to each other during an ongoing build job to ensure optimum quality of the multilaser components.

Powder Bed Monitoring option

You can automatically monitor the powder bed via an integrated camera in the TruPrint component chamber and the automatic image processing function. This means that you have a constant overview of the state of the component and can analyze the quality parameters layer-by-layer.

Melt Pool Monitoring option

Calibration options

Various options are available for your TruPrint to meet verification requirements. Laser power calibration, which is also for multilasers, focus position measurement and scan field calibration, enables you to measure, recalibrate when necessary, and document your measurement results.

Monitoring solutions for your additive manufacturing

The intelligent monitoring solutions from TRUMPF enable you to professionally monitor and analyze the LMF process on the TruPrint machines. As part of this, sensor-based data is recorded and processed. This offer includes solutions for the monitoring of processes (Melt Pool and Powder Bed Monitoring), conditions, and performance. The results of the monitoring can be seen directly on the HMI of the TruPrint machine. With the TruTops Monitor product, you also have full transparency across all your machinery, along with the option of remote access to the machines – either via the desktop or with mobile access via the MobileControl app.

TO PRODUCT

The inert machine concept of the TruPrint 2000 with powder preparation station, provides extremely easy powder and parts handling under shielding gas. The closed circuit means that contact with the powder is effectively avoided, and a high level of occupational safety provided. The material also does not degrade due to the minimal contact with oxygen.

Powder preparation station for easy powder handling

With the powder preparation station, new or collected powder from the overflow bin can be easily prepared for reuse. After the LMF process, the completed component is unpacked within the process chamber. The powder is collected using the integrated conveyor, for reuse, in the overflow bin. This is placed in the powder preparation station for sieving – it is sieved very quickly into the supply cylinder there. Weighing takes place automatically via the integrated scale. With this, the circuit is always inert and closed. The powder preparation station can be used for several machines from the TruPrint Series at the same time.
