Processing aluminum alloys with Prima Additive's Powder Bed Fusion machines gives you the following benefits for your finished parts:

high thermal conductivity, high mechanical properties (strength and hardness), high electrical conductivity, good post-process finish, excellent resistance to corrosion and low density.

The main advantage of 3D printing aluminum is its lightweight.

Aluminum alloys that can be processed with Prima Additive machines:

  • AlSi10Mg
