Eplus3D EP-M450 — Technical data

Name: Eplus3D EP-M450
Brand: Eplus3D

The EP-M450 is the entry model of the Atlas Line, with which Eplus3D addresses large one-piece components. Its build volume measures 450 × 450 × 550 mm including the build plate, and exposure is by one, two or four fibre lasers of 500 W, optionally 700 or 1,000 W. The manufacturer quotes up to 140 cc/h in theory, a Z repeatability of ±5 µm, a recoater working in both directions, powder refilling without stopping and back-flush filtration with a very long service life. According to the manufacturer page the system is decidedly massive, with a footprint of almost 5.9 × 3.6 m and around 12 t.

When buying a used EP-M450, dismantling, transport and installation are a cost block of their own, as dimensions and weight call for crane and heavy-load logistics. Technically, the number and hours of the lasers, the condition of the scanners and protective glasses, filter history and the function of the powder refill system count. A trial build with tensile specimens from several areas of the build field proves uniformity. Also clarify whether the Siemens NX integration, EPHatch licence and parameter packages are transferred.

3 · Have parts printed

Not worth your own machine? We produce your parts – request from the LayerByLayer 3D printing service.

Buy or have it printed? For small or changing quantities, having parts printed is often cheaper than your own machine. If you regularly fill many build jobs, your own machine pays off.
