SLM 1.4540 (15-5PH)

Generic Family: Steel - Powder Metal - Stainless - Precipitation HardeningSupplied by: SLM Solutions GmbH
Material Structure
Components produced by SLM® in steel show a homogenous, dense structure. Due to the particularity of the SLM® building process, levels of hardness can be achieved which cannot be equalled by conventional heat treatment methods. Through post treatment, components can be brought to the condition required.
