The INSSTEK MX-Lab is a DED (Direct Energy Deposition) and material research machine designed specifically for advanced material development and research applications. It integrates Insstek’s DED technology with a versatile platform that enables scientists and engineers to experiment with various metal powders, alloys, and composite materials.
The MX-Lab is ideal for research institutes, universities, and industries involved in material science and metallurgy. It allows researchers to explore new materials, develop specialized alloys, and improve material properties through innovative DED processes. With precise control over deposition parameters, including laser power, powder feed rate, and scanning speed, users can fine-tune the material properties for specific applications.
This machine supports a wide range of metal powder materials, enabling users to experiment with different combinations and create unique material compositions. The MX-Lab is also used for multi-material deposition, gradient structures, and complex geometries, making it a powerful tool for material research, prototyping, and small-scale production.
The Insstek MX-Lab DED and alloy research machine is specifically designed for powder metallurgy research and material development. Its key features include:
- Simple System for Easy Entry into DED: The MX-Lab provides an intuitive and accessible system, allowing for easier adoption of Direct Energy Deposition (DED) technology, particularly for researchers and new users in material science.
- Focus on Powder Metallurgy Research: The machine is optimized for advanced powder metallurgy, enabling precise experimentation and development of new alloys and material properties.
- 3-Axis System & DMT Technology: Equipped with a 3-axis motion system and Insstek’s patented DMT (Direct Metal Tooling) technology, it provides precise and stable metal deposition, ensuring high-quality builds and complex geometries.
- Accurate & Stable CVM Powder Feeding System: The built-in CVM (Controlled Variable Method) Powder Feeding System delivers consistent and accurate powder feed, which enhances the stability and precision of material deposition.
- Hexa-Feeding System for Multi-Materials: The machine features a Hexa-Feeding System, allowing the use of multiple materials simultaneously. This enables multi-material research, including the creation of functionally graded materials (FGMs) and complex alloy compositions.
- LFM-1 Technology (Built-in): LFM-1 (Laser Focusing Mechanism) technology is incorporated into the system, enhancing laser focusing capabilities for improved accuracy during material deposition. This ensures precision in microstructures and better control over material properties.
