The SLM 280 & SLM 500 Pump/Gas Blower Upgrade from Langer Engineering is designed to enhance the gas flow efficiency, system reliability, and overall performance of your Selective Laser Melting (SLM) machines. This upgrade optimizes the argon or nitrogen flow, ensuring a stable and uniform gas environment inside the build chamber, which is critical for achieving consistent part quality and reducing soot accumulation during printing.

By replacing no longer supported or discontinued, outdated or underperforming pumps and gas blowers, this upgrade significantly improves gas circulation, enhancing the removal of process byproducts and ensuring a cleaner build environment. Poor gas flow can lead to porosity, oxidation, and inconsistent melt pools, negatively impacting final part quality. The upgraded system provides higher airflow capacity, better filtration, and more precise control, resulting in improved powder spreading and laser stability throughout the print job.

Langer Engineering’s solution includes a thorough evaluation of the current gas flow system, professional installation of high-efficiency pumps or blowers, and system calibration to meet optimal operational parameters. This upgrade not only extends the service life of your machine but also reduces downtime, maintenance frequency, and operating costs.

Designed specifically for SLM 280 and SLM 500 systems, this upgrade ensures seamless integration with your existing setup, delivering enhanced print reliability, reduced defects, and improved productivity for high-performance metal additive manufacturing applications.
