We've been working with another company on something even more
advanced. Their direct metal printer works exactly like an inkjet
printer except that the "ink" is molten stainless steel. We designed
the induction heated melting chamber that rides on the X-Y arm.


Do you have to run the printing process in an inert gas atmosphere?
