SLM Solutions-3D Printing
As an optics-laser engineer, I was one of the Engineers responsible for manufacturing optical and laser holders such as F-theta scan lens, CW fiber laser, and Galvo scanner. After finishing the SLM machine, we could print samples.
Selective laser melting (SLM) is a specific 3D printing technique, which utilizes high power-density laser to fully melt and fuse metallic powders to produce near net-shape parts with near full density.
I aligned the initial set-up for checking the optic & laser part of SLM.
