Achieve cleaner, more consistent downward-facing and low-angle surfaces by reducing support contact and improving control over critical overhang regions.

Choose more efficient part orientations and position components closer together on the build plate. Higher nesting density helps increase the number of metal parts produced in each build.

Print less non-functional support material to lower powder consumption, reduce scrap and support more sustainable metal additive manufacturing.

Reduce time-consuming support removal and associated manual labour to shorten post-processing, accelerate production and improve overall lead times.

Manufacture complex internal features and previously impractical geometries, including cooling channels, fluid passages, enclosed structures and low-angle overhangs.

Reduce support-driven design constraints and make LPBF build preparation easier. Proven support-reduction strategies help users prepare successful builds with less specialist DfAM expertise.
