With the EOS M 400-4, EOS Introduces Its Biggest and Fastest System for Direct Metal Laser Sintering
CHENNAI, India, August 30, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
The new system shatters the boundaries of manufacturing with regards to productivity,
industrialization and part qualityÂ
EOS, the global technology and quality leader for high-end Additive Manufacturing (AM)
solutions, introduces its highly innovative system for Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS)
at the IMTS show in Chicago (Sept. 12-17). Designed for industrial applications, the
ultra-fast, quad-laser system expands the EOS DMLS offering by building on established EOS
technology, yet taking it to the next level in terms of productivity, part quality and
scalability to meet manufacturing requirements.

Andreas Graichen, Group Manager, Finspang Additive Manufacturing Centre of Competence,
Siemens Power Generation Services states: "We chose the EOS M 400-4 system to bring our AM
activities to the next level: from a small scale, single laser unit to a larger scale,
multiple laser unit. By using a wider building platform, with the higher productivity it
provides, and pairing it with a new handling system, new thinking in gas turbine design
can be brought into the industrial workshop." And he adds: "The Additive Manufacturing
technology provides us with the speed and efficiencies needed to progress in the energy
industry's fast-moving digital environment. And as such makes Siemens a unique player in
the field of highly efficient power generation technologies."
Dr. Adrian Keppler, Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) at EOS ads: "Following our strategy
to establish the Additive Manufacturing technology for production in all industries we
have developed this pioneering DMLS system. The EOS M 400-4 is a perfect addition to our
industrial systems portfolio. It shatters the boundaries of manufacturing as it meets the
most demanding requirements of our industry partners in terms of efficiency, scalability,
usability and process monitoring." And he continues: "As the system offers a modular
platform designed for industrial 3D Printing, it can easily be integrated into existing
production environments and the customer set of future innovations."
Building on the trusted EOS metal AM benchmarkÂ
The EOS M 400-4 expands the high-performance offerings of DMLS systems. It offers a
large building volume of 400 x 400 x 400 mm and is equipped with four 400 Watt lasers
operating independently in 250 x 250 mm squares each including an overlap of 50 mm. The
exceptional beam and power stability ensures highest DMLS part quality. The system builds
on the well-established and validated process of the EOS M 290 technology. It takes
innovation to the next production level as it quadruples productivity. As such it is the
perfect choice for those Additive Manufacturing applications that need an up to four
time's faster production of metal parts.
New EOS ClearFlow process gas management systemÂ
As part of the EOS M 400-4 system, the patented EOS ClearFlow process gas management
technology ensures optimal and consistent processing conditions. It distributes the
process gas in an intelligent way to avoid interference of the lasers with side products
of the melting process. In addition, the integrated industrial-grade, recirculating filter
system with its long filter lifetime significantly reduces operating times and expenses.
Intuitive software, improved usability, EOSTATE Monitoring Suite Â
Usability and workflow on the EOS M 400-4 have been designed to meet demanding
production requirements. The intuitive software offers workflow flexibility and
efficiency. The system is easily operated via a touch screen and a task-based graphical
user-interface. The extensive EOSTATE Monitoring Suite ensures compliance with the
requirements of industrial production: it enables monitoring of the powder bed, of a
variety of parameters as well as the laser power. Data Preparation and calculation is
separated from the building process: the file prepared at desk is transmitted via the
network. The system focusses entirely on building parts.
Material and process portfolioÂ
Initially, the materials EOS NickelAlloy HX as well as EOS MaragingSteel MS1 will be
available for the EOS M 400-4 and more materials follow soon. Parameters can be modified
to meet individual application requirements using the EOS ParameterEditor.
