The most common metal 3D Printing technology is Selective Laser Melting (SLM). It is used for prototype creation and mass production. The range of materials used is wide, including steel alloys, nickel, cobalt chrome, aluminum, titanium, etc.
The end part has the same properties as the parts manufactured with other technologies. A laser sinters the metal powder together, creating the object layer by layer. Due to the constraints of the SLM process and the material's weight, SLM requires support structures for any overhanging features.
The surface finish of the sintered parts is rough and may require some post-processing, depending on your requirements. It is also common for machine parts to achieve fine tolerances and finish fine features, surfaces, and holes.
