Metal 3D Printers

Metal

Professional desktop 3D printers are compact, table top, easy-to-use systems in the price range of $3,000 to $15,000. This differs from hobbyist desktop 3D printers, which typically retail anywhere from $200 to $3,000 and have minimal features, limited material capabilities, are generally harder to use, and are less reliable.

Professional desktop 3D printers vary in material offerings. Some are open-source material systems (meaning you can print with just about any third-party plastic filament), while others are closed with more limited material options.

Professional desktop 3D printers can also offer a variety of upgraded features, including: heated build chambers, material management, auto-bed leveling, dual-extrusion, variable nozzle diameters, precision mechanics, and high-speed extrusion heads.

This opens up countless use-cases for using professional desktop 3D printers, such as for prototyping, manufacturing end-use parts, creating custom forms and molds, and for building tooling, jigs and fixtures. Professional desktop 3D printers are used in industries like aerospace, automotive, architecture, education, healthcare and manufacturing.

DM Studio System 2

Unlike laser-based systems that selectively melt metal powder, the Studio System extrudes bound metal rods—similar to how an FDM printer works. This eliminates many of the safety requirements often associated with metal 3D printing while enabling new features like the use of fully closed-cell infill for lightweight strength.
