Eplus3D EP-M150 — Technical data

The EP-M150 is the smallest metal powder-bed system from Eplus3D of Hangzhou and now belongs to the Flex Line. It was introduced in May 2019, still under the Shining 3D name, as a compact system for dental laboratories, medical technology and jewellery, with a round build area of about 150 mm diameter and 120 mm height and a 200 or 500 W fibre laser. The current manufacturer page describes a larger version with Ø 150 × 200 mm, one or two lasers of 500 or 700 W, a 40–70 µm focus and a three-phase supply. It is intended for small, fine parts such as crowns, implants or material trials with little powder in circulation.

When buying used, first establish which generation it is: early units run on 220 V, newer ones need 380 V, and the type plate also shows the number of lasers and their power. Check laser hours, protective glass, filters, recoater lip and chamber seals, as the manufacturer specifies no more than 100 ppm residual oxygen. For units from the Shining 3D era, it should be confirmed that Eplus3D provides service, spare parts and software updates.
