Plastic 3D printer LSAM

SLMindustriallarge-format

Large industrial additive manufacturing machines that print and trim on the same machine. Standard LSAM closed configuration These are near net shape additive manufacturing systems that offer both print and trim on the same machine. They are configured with a fixed table, high walls and a moving gantry or gantries. Doors on each end enclose the machine so they can be built to meet European CE requirements. The model number 1010, 1020 and 1040, denote the table size in feet 10'x10', 10'x20' and 10'x40'. Model numbers 1520 and 1540 denote the table size in feet 15'x20' and 15'x40'. Although Thermwood is routinely building LSAMs in 40 foot lengths, even longer machines are possible, although nothing longer than 40 feet has been built to date. The 1010 has a single control with both the print and trim heads mounted on a single moving gantry. It can both print and trim but not at the same time. The 1020 and larger machines have dual controls and dual gantries, one for print and one for trim. With these machines, it is possible to print one part on one end of the table and trim another on the other end at the same time. Machines 1020 and larger can be equipped with a Vertical Layer Print System, allowing parts to be printed on a moving vertical table that are as tall as the machine table is long. LSAM MT open configuration This machine is configured with both a print and trim head on a single fixed gantry mounted over a moving table. Like the 1010 above, this system can both print and trim, but not at the same time. The moving table is 10'x12' with a 10'x10' working area.
