EOS P 500
Plastic Laser Sintering on Industrial Scales
Build rate of up to 6.6 l/h with a packing density of 5%
Lowest price per part on the market
Automation-friendly platform with standardized software interfaces
Reduced Costs
The innovative layering system, which applies and compacts the material at up to 0.6 m/s, and the two powerful 70-watt lasers reduce the costs per part by more than 30%.
Diversity of Materials
The system processes high-performance plastics, enabling maximum diversity of materials. Application and material development are supported by open software interfaces and user-friendly tools.
Automation
The system is intuitively controlled by EOSYSTEM. Software integration in CAD systems, e.g. NX™ by Siemens, is provided by EOSPRINT 2, and a connection to ERP systems is provided by EOSCONNECT. Automated interfaces and optimized accessories reduce the cycle time and guarantee operational build times lasting several days.

3D Printed Molds and Tools
Reduce Cycle Times, Increase Cost-Efficiency
Why using additive manufacturing to produce 3D printed molds and tools? As an industrial production method, the 3D printing process of additive manufacturing offers enormous design and manufacturing freedom. The most complex of shapes can be designed and produced in the highest quality, quickly and cost-efficiently, even for small batch sizes. In this way, the process provides a solution to a tooling challenge faced by many tool and mold makers:
In many industries, producing specialized tools and parts is one of the most resource-intensive manufacturing processes. Conventional processes are typically expensive, time-consuming and technically very challenging. The 3D printing process with EOS metal materials is the answer.

3D Printing in Practice
Housings for Electronic Components
Having a stable housing protects the interior. Robust cases are often essential, especially for sensitive electronics. They need to be strong and properly sealed, while also fitting as closely as possible, and they need to be manufactured quickly enough to achieve short production cycles. However, with the injection molding process, manufacturing housings with these properties is only viable in very large series productions.

Additive Manufacturing for Sports Articles
To remain competitive, the sports equipment industry is increasingly turning away from classically mass-produced items. With new ideas for product improvements, businesses are approaching their goal of optimizing “athletes and their equipment” as an integrated system.
