Metal 3D Printing Series Introduces Industrial Speed, Performance for Mold Production
Xact Metal introduces the XM300G family of mid-size metal printers at affordable prices, especially tailored for customers starting their entry into metal 3D printing.
Aiming to bring affordable metal 3D printing to small- to medium-sized companies and decentralize metal 3D printing, Xact Metal announces the launch of the XM300G series of affordable mid-size metal 3D printers.
According to Juan Mario Gomez, CEO of Xact Metal, the XM300G series is ideal for printing high quantities or large parts where print speed is critical. Based on the XM200G multi-laser printer platform, Gomez adds that the series is another example of how Xact Metal continues to combine the requirements of metal powder-bed fusion and advanced technology for high-performance additive manufacturing (AM). XM300G is priced at a MSRP of $200,000 dollars.
The XM300G family is a single-, dual- or quad- independent laser system with 100% overlapping print zones. A large 300- × 300- × 350-mm build volume, upgradable to 300 × 300 × 450 mm, a selection of 400W or 700W fiber lasers and an interchangeable build platform to reduce printing cycle time, makes the XM300G well-suited to support a wide variety of industries — aerospace, automotive and general manufacturing — and AM applications, particularly for customers starting their entry into metal 3D printing, including product development, manufacturing, research, education and producing molds.
Xact Metal says it has already received orders for the XM300G. Shipments are scheduled to start Q3 2023.
