Why 500°C preheating?

The benefits for you

With our TruPrint 5000 and 500°C preheating option on the substrate plate, you always have control over the temperatures in the process chamber. Homogeneous heat distribution, which specifically prevents stress in the component, reliably achieves optimum printing results for your application. And works in series production too.

Higher quality production

Lower residual stresses measurably increase component quality, especially with Ti64. At the same time, you benefit from having greater design freedom and a very robust production process.

Processing a wider range of raw materials

Be it H11 or H13, our preheating option enables you to process a much wider range of materials and achieve improved component quality.

Less post-processing

The preheating function means that component production requires fewer support structures saving you not only material but also time and costly post-processing.

Reliable series production

Industrial-grade printing with the TruPrint 5000 and the preheating option 500°C for series production. The tried and tested exchangeable cylinder principle can also be used in combination with high preheating temperatures.

3D-printed component with the 500°C preheating option

Do you want to get large components without cracks or delamination defects from a 3D metal printer? With the TruPrint 5000 and the 500°C preheating option, you can print components made of Ti64, H11 or H13 in high quality and cost-efficiently – with no rejects or material waste.

Component printed without 500°C preheating

Large components made of Ti64, H11 or H13 often have cracks, stresses and delamination defects caused by too rapid cooling during the LMF process. Consequently, the components are unusable.

Industries that particularly benefit from preheating

Some materials, e.g. Ti64, H11 or H13, are common in certain industries and are ideal for 3D printing with 500°C pre-heating, especially when producing larger components.

Printing titanium

Components in the aerospace, medical and energy sectors are sensitive, high precision and challenging. They therefore especially benefit from flawless 3D printing using 500°C preheating.
