DMLS Inserts…
Traditionally, cooling channels cannot be made along with the product geometry, so the cooling efficiency is limited.
Conformal Cooling
Design – Case Study
Conformal Cooling is an effective way to shorten cycle time and improve product quality. The precise temperature control on the tool means significant time saving and reduction of production costs.
Reduction up to 43%
Our equipment
EOS – M 290
Production Volume (mm) 250x250x320

- Process compliance Report.
Conformal cooling
Using DMLS technology
- By using DMLS technology it is possible to produce complete conformal cooling circuits.
- An adequate temperature transfer is the main goal of conformal cooling, allowing heating circuits to follow the geometry of the part.
CAE Analyses
Getting the best solution
The flow analysis allows the optimization of cooling channels by eliminating hot spots in areas that were inaccessible by the conventional system.
- It is possible to calculate the Reynolds number.
