BLT-A160

BLT-A160

Description

The BLT-A160 from Bright Laser Technologies is a compact yet high-performing metal additive manufacturing system engineered for small-parts batch production. With a 160 × 160 × 200 mm build volume, dual-laser configuration, and aerospace-grade stability, it offers a powerful solution for dental labs, medical device manufacturers, and small-format industrial parts suppliers.

The A160 supports a wide range of materials—titanium alloys, cobalt-chromium, stainless steel, and superalloys—making it well-suited for complex geometries and demanding applications like dental stents, crowns, and micro-mechanical components. With up to 2×500W lasers and build speeds up to 30 cm³/h, it delivers high-throughput production with tight dimensional accuracy.

This system is designed with real-time process monitoring, variable-speed synchronized recoating, and exclusive software options tailored to dental workflows. Its tool-free substrate design and low power requirements maximize uptime and ease of use, while multiple safety interlocks, inert gas handling, and ATEX-referenced safety standards ensure consistent, safe operation.

Whether you’re scaling up digital dentistry or looking to increase the efficiency of small-parts AM production, the BLT-A160 offers reliable performance, low maintenance, and flexible deployment—all in a compact footprint.

BLT-S450

The BLT-S450 is Bright Laser Technologies’ flagship solution for industrial-scale metal additive manufacturing—combining precision, throughput, and intelligent automation to meet the demands of modern manufacturing environments.

Built upon a mature platform, the S450 features a 450 × 450 × 500 mm build envelope and scalable multi-laser configurations (up to 8×500W), enabling high-volume part production at speeds of up to 200 cm³/h. Whether for aerospace, energy, tooling, or automotive applications, it delivers consistent quality and repeatability across a wide range of materials, including titanium alloys, superalloys, and tool steels.

Engineered for continuous, safe operation, the S450 integrates a closed-loop powder circulation system, long-life filtration, and inert gas protection, reducing material waste and operational costs. Its intelligent modules—including deep learning-based powder spreading correction, real-time recoating detection, and process traceability—ensure consistent part quality while minimizing manual intervention.

With a focus on operational efficiency, the BLT-S450 supports advanced software (BLT-BP, BLT-MCS, Magics) and integrates into automated production lines with options for powder handling, sieving, and supplying systems. Certified to ISO9001/14001/45001 standards and compliant with global safety norms, the system is optimized for long-term industrial deployment.

For manufacturers seeking to scale metal AM with high efficiency, lower cost per part, and production-ready reliability, the BLT-S450 delivers a future-ready solution.

BLT-S210

The BLT-S210 is Bright Laser Technologies’ compact, intelligent metal additive manufacturing system purpose-built for R&D, universities, and small-batch innovation. Compact in size yet rich in capability, it is trusted by academic institutions and research facilities seeking to explore advanced materials and novel AM applications.

With a build volume of 160 × 160 × 200 mm and support for a broad spectrum of materials—including titanium alloys, cobalt-chromium, tantalum, tungsten, silver, and copper alloys—the S210 is engineered for flexibility in material experimentation. It features ultra-fine oxygen control (≤10 ppm possible), variable laser configurations (up to 2×500W), and high-temperature preheating (up to 350°C) to support complex metallurgy.

Its modular, open-layout design enhances operability and ease of maintenance, while smart functions like real-time monitoring, powder spreading control, and temperature field mapping bring industrial-grade traceability to research-scale builds. Safety remains paramount with multi-level interlocking, customizable glove box integration, and compliance with CE, FDA, and ATEX design standards.

Supported by BLT’s advanced software suite (BLT-BP, BLT-MCS, Magics), the S210 allows researchers to precisely control every step of the build process—empowering material innovation, biomedical prototyping, and process development in a safe, efficient, and customizable environment.

If your focus is on discovery, development, or micro-batch part validation, the BLT-S210 is the tool engineered to support your ambition with accuracy and confidence.
