ORIX Rentec has begun handling the “S310 Green Laser,” a 3D printer made by China’s BLT that can form pure copper.
The “S310 Green Laser” is a metal 3D printer that can form complex shapes from copper and copper alloys, which are difficult to process with a laser.
Unlike typical 3D printers equipped with red lasers, the S310 Green Laser is equipped with a green laser that can easily sinter and form metal powders with high light reflectivity.
It has become easier to process copper, which has a high thermal conductivity and was previously considered difficult to form with printers, and it is expected to be used more widely in research and development in the manufacturing industry, including electric vehicles (EVs).
