The iSLM400D/Q is a high-productivity industrial metal additive manufacturing system built on Selective Laser Melting (SLM) technology, designed for demanding serial production and large-part applications. With a generous 400 × 350 × 400 mm build volume and optional dual (iSLM400D) or quad (iSLM400Q) 500W fiber lasers, it delivers unmatched throughput—up to 50 cm³/h—while maintaining >99% part density and exceptional mechanical integrity.

Engineered for industries such as aerospace, power generation, automotive, and precision tooling, the iSLM400D/Q enables direct fabrication of complex, end-use metal components without tooling or intermediate steps. Its advanced features include:

Multi-laser synchronization with dynamic scan field stitching for seamless large-area builds
Precision recoating system supporting layer thicknesses from 20–100 µm
Intelligent inert gas management (argon/nitrogen) with real-time oxygen control
High-speed galvanometer scanners with spot sizes adjustable from 60–200 µm
Full digital workflow: Forgecise’s iSLM control software + 3dLayer slicing platform for automated support generation, nesting, and job monitoring
Broad material compatibility: certified for 316L stainless steel, AlSi₁₀Mg, Ti6Al4V (TC4), CoCr (MP1), MS1 tool steel, IN718 superalloy, QCr1 copper, and more

Backed by Forgecise’s global service network and engineering support, this system redefines scalability in professional metal 3D printing.
