MaterialNote
SUS304A kind of general stainless
SUS316Stainless steel with improved corrosion resistance from SUS304
Maraging steelIt is a material that achieves high strength and high toughness by adding Co, Mo, Ti, Al, etc. to 18% nickel steel.
Ti6Al4V (64 titanium)Lightweight, high strength and highly corrosion resistant, it is widely used in medical, chemical and aerospace fields, but its machinability is no so good. inferior.
Inconel 718A nickel alloy that has good material properties even at high temperatures and is suitable for high-temperature applications such as gas turbines.
Stellite6It is a material with high hardness and excellent wear resistance, which is mainly composed of cobalt. Only surface cladding is supported.

Samples

LAMDA's manufacturing samples

One of the largest titanium samples processed in additive manufacturing in Japan,with a height of 1,430 mm.

Different materials such as Inconel and stainless steel can be deposited on steel base material.

Complicated shapes such as Tokkuri, which is a bottle of Japanese sake, can be manufactured using 5-axis indexing.

Hollow gear-shaped sample
