Product catalog summary
Product Overview
The document provides a brief on the Sapphire and Sapphire 1MZ printers by Velo3D, which offer a comprehensive metal additive manufacturing solution. These printers are part of a highly integrated production system that includes Flow intelligent print preparation software and Assure quality monitoring and control software.
Key Features
  • SupportFree Manufacturing: The printers can handle complex geometries, including low angle prints down to zero degrees and high aspect ratio structures up to 3000:1, without the need for supports.
  • Build Volume: The standard build chamber is 315 mm in diameter and 400 mm in height, with an option for a 1000 mm height configuration.
  • Dual Lasers: Equipped with dual 1kW lasers for faster printing.
  • In-situ Metrology Sensors: These sensors provide visibility into the quality of each layer, with no need for external calibration instruments.
  • Environmental Control: Features include low ppm O2 operation, active humidity monitoring, and high-efficiency spatter removal.
Qualified Materials
The printers are compatible with a range of materials including Nickel alloys (Inconel 718, Inconel 625), Hastelloy, Copper (GRCop-42), Titanium (Ti-6Al-4V), and Aluminum (F357, Scalmalloy).
System Features
  • Laser and Optics Fidelity: Includes run-time and one-click optics calibrations and self-cleaning laser windows.
  • Powder Bed Uniformity: Utilizes a non-contact recoater and per-layer 3D powder bed height mapping.
Applications
The printers are designed for production-level additive manufacturing, capable of producing high-performance heat exchangers and assemblies with exceptional quality.

PRODUCT BRIEF Sapphire and Sapphire 1MZ Printer To Learn More Visit velo3d.com [email protected] Headquarters 511 Division Street Campbell, CA 95008 European Technology Center Am Technologiezentrum 5 86159 Augsburg, Germany Velo3D provides a revolutionary metal end-to-end additive manufacturing solution enabling designers to build parts they need without design or quality compromises. The Velo3D intelligent solution is not just a printer, it is a highly integrated production system driven by our underlying SupportFree manufacturing process. The solution includes our Flow intelligent print preparation software, your choice of a Sapphire printer, and our Assure quality monitoring and control software. The Sapphire family of printers are next generation laser powder bed fusion metal AM printers capable of printing complex geometries including low large inner diameters up to 100 mm, and support free free-floating parts previously thought impossible. 315 mm 12.40 in angle prints down to zero degrees, high aspect ratio structures up to 3000:1, Sapphire Printer Family Configurations The Sapphire and the Sapphire 1MZ For higher volume production parts see our new Sapphire XC printer Development & Production-Level Additive Manufacturing Enabling SupportFree Geometries Low angles down to zero degrees enable previously impossible geometries and significantly less post processing. Large inner diameters up to 100 mm enables manifolds, volutes and crossovers. The standard build cylindrical chamber of 315 mm diameter by 400 mm height is now available in a 1000 mm height configuration for taller parts. Both feature dual 1kW lasers for faster printing and our proprietary non-contact recoater to reduce the risk of part collisions, further enabling support free builds. Sapphire prints leak-free vertical tubes with wall thicknesses down to 300 microns, as tall as 400 mm. It can print low angle pins, down to 15 degrees, as small as 450 microns. Vertical pins can be printed as small as 150 microns. High aspect ratios, up to 3000:1, enable high performance heat exchangers and assemblies to be produced with exceptional quality. Contact Velo3D for more details or to schedule a tour and demo. In-situ metrology sensors enable visibility into the quality of every layer of the build. Calibration requires no external instrumentation, enabling runtime and one-click optics calibration. Continuous powder handling and inert powder unpacking are included.
