Revolutionize Manufacturing with SLM®280 PS: Precision Solutions for Serial Production
Enhance your manufacturing capabilities with the
SLM®280 Production Series. Engineered for precision and efficiency, this powerhouse metal 3D printing system is ideal for industries requiring high-quality metal components at scale. With its customizable solutions and seamless integration into existing workflows, the SLM®280 PS empowers you to meet the demands of today's dynamic market with confidence.
Utilizing a patented multi-laser scan strategy, the SLM®280 PS minimizes soot interference, alters layer stitching, and ensures results with the same density and mechanical properties as single-laser builds, guaranteeing consistent and reliable outcomes in every print.
Featuring a build plate 25% larger than standard mid-sized machines, the SLM®280 Production Series accommodates more parts per build, making it a high-power, multi-laser machine tailored for production-oriented additive manufacturing, boosting productivity and throughput.
The SLM®280 PS provides a patented laminar gas flow that creates a clean process environment, increasing quality throughout the entire build. Powder transport, sieving, and storage are contained within an inert gas atmosphere, maintaining powder quality and ensuring superior part quality.
The permanent filter module of the SLM®280 PS traps soot and condensate particles from the process gas stream in a sintered plate filter. Waste material is coated with an inhibitor, dropped in a bin for dry disposal, while clean gas returns to the process chamber, improving uptime and reducing maintenance costs.
The SLM®280 PS features closed-loop powder handling, increasing safety and maintaining material quality throughout the printing process. This innovative system ensures that powder is contained and managed safely, minimizing contamination risks and guaranteeing consistent part quality.
The patented multi-laser scan strategy of the SLM®280 PS ensures consistent results with the same density and mechanical properties as single-laser builds, minimizing variability and ensuring reliable outcomes.
With a build plate 25% larger than standard mid-sized machines, the SLM®280 PS maximizes productivity by accommodating more parts per build, making it ideal for high-volume manufacturing applications.
Featuring a patented laminar gas flow, the SLM®280 PS creates a clean process environment throughout the build, enhancing quality and minimizing contamination risks.
The production-geared permanent filter module of the SLM®280 PS improves uptime by trapping soot and condensate particles from the process gas stream, reducing maintenance downtime and ensuring continuous operation.
By purging waste material from the filter with gas and dropping it in a bin for dry disposal, the permanent filter module of the SLM®280 PS reduces costs associated with filter replacement and maintenance.
Closed-loop powder handling in the SLM®280 PS increases safety by containing and managing powder throughout the printing process, minimizing contamination risks and ensuring operator safety.
The closed-loop powder handling system of the SLM®280 PS maintains material quality by preventing contamination and ensuring consistent powder properties throughout the printing process.

Partnering with Nikon SLM Solutions has equipped us with unparalleled technological support, enabling us to expand into new markets beyond our traditional scope...These advanced SLM®280 PS systems empower us to enhance our operational efficiency and cater to the intricate needs of the aerospace industry.
Howco, Director of Additive Manufacturing
Our medium-term goal is to position ourselves as an innovative 3D printing supplier in Central Europe. With the targeted expansion of our machine park, we can further expand our competence. With the two new Nikon SLM Solutions machines, we will be able, in particular, to produce metal parts and prototypes in medium to high volumes even more effectively and precisely. We can serve more materials within the shortest possible time thanks to the new machines. The recent very high demand for our 3D printing services has made the purchase inevitable.
M&H CNC GmbH, CEO
We have selected Nikon SLM Solutions as they were proposing the best technical option on Aluminum, but also because some of our previous validated parts have been already produced on their machines. Nikon SLM®'s technical team additionally has provided us and our applications an amazing support for the implementation of this new project.
Wabtec AM US, Head of Additive Manufacturing
Partnering with Nikon SLM Solutions has enabled us to innovate and develop functional copper inductors. Their technology and eagerness to collaborate have been key to our success.
Tucker Induction Systems, Owner
The decision to partner with Nikon SLM Solutions was easy in 2016. Nikon SLM Solutions was the only AM company solely focused on metal AM and they have continued to be a leader ever since. They pioneered bi-directional recoating, multi-laser systems and their current production series machines have been a game changer. The production series machines provide everything we need. Automated and closed loop powder handling reduce labor costs while ensuring safety and maintaining the highest possible alloy properties. The improved gas flow and permanent filter system ensure we can run 24/7 without any decrease in part quality. Nikon SLM Solution’s partnerships with industry leading companies guarantees that BDL will benefit from continued research and development across all levels of metal AM. Thus, enabling our mission.
