Overview
The DMP Factory 350 is a metal powder-bed fusion printer for production, offered with one, two or three 500 W fiber lasers at 1070 nm. The single- and dual-laser builds have a 275 x 275 x 420 mm build volume; the triple-laser build changes the shape to 350 x 350 x 350 mm, trading height for a larger plate.
The Factory name refers to powder handling. The table lists integrated automated sieving and powder conveyance under inert atmosphere, so powder is recovered, sieved and returned without operators opening containers. For reactive alloys such as titanium and aluminium, keeping the powder under inert gas between builds protects its condition, and it shortens the turnaround between jobs.
The listed material range is wide: aluminum, titanium, stainless steel, maraging steel, cobalt-chrome, nickel alloys, tungsten, niobium (C-103) and copper alloys. Layer thickness is adjustable from a minimum of 5 um, with 30, 60 and 90 um as typical settings; thicker layers build faster, thinner ones give finer surfaces and detail. Accuracy is listed as +/- 0.1-0.2% with 100 um minimum, and repeatability as 60 um (3 sigma) in X, Y and Z. Builds are prepared in 3DXpert.
The machine is 2,370 x 2,400 x 3,470 mm and weighs 4,200 kg. Height is the figure to check against the building. These are the listed figures and have not been matched to a current GF page.

Strengths & Limitations
Strengths
- One, two or three 500 W fiber lasers on one platform
- Integrated automated sieving and powder conveyance under inert atmosphere
- Wide material list including tungsten, niobium (C-103) and copper alloys
- Layer thickness adjustable from 5 um, typically 30, 60 or 90 um
- Triple-laser build of 350 x 350 x 350 mm for larger plates
Limitations
- The 350 x 350 x 350 mm volume needs the triple-laser build; single and dual are 275 x 275 x 420 mm
- The machine is 3,470 mm high, so ceiling height and access must be checked
- Accuracy of +/- 0.1-0.2% with 100 um minimum means functional faces usually need machining

Frequently Asked Questions
01
275 x 275 x 420 mm with one or two lasers, and 350 x 350 x 350 mm with three. The triple-laser volume is wider and deeper but lower, so tall parts may still need the 420 mm build height of the smaller plate.
02
One, two or three 500 W fiber lasers at 1070 nm. More lasers share the scanning of each layer, which shortens build time on a full plate; the triple configuration is also the one with the 350 x 350 x 350 mm volume.
03
The listed materials are aluminum, titanium, stainless steel, maraging steel, cobalt-chrome, nickel alloys, tungsten, niobium (C-103) and copper alloys. Check that a qualified parameter set exists for the exact alloy grade you need.
04
The table lists integrated automated sieving and powder conveyance under inert atmosphere. Powder therefore stays protected between builds, which matters most for titanium and aluminium, and operators do less manual powder transfer.
05
Accuracy is listed as +/- 0.1-0.2% with 100 um minimum, and repeatability as 60 um (3 sigma) in X, Y and Z. Holes, sealing faces and bearing seats are normally machined after printing to reach tighter limits.
