DIRECT METAL LASER SINTERING
Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) alternatively known as Direct Metal Laser Melting (DMLM) is a 3D printing technology where lasers sinter a variety of powdered metal materials creating prototypes layer by layer. It is optimal for parts with intricate geometries and thin wall sections which cannot be produced with other metal manufacturing methods.
ARRK’S DIRECT METAL LASER SINTERING SERVICE PROVIDES CUSTOMERS WITH THE ABILITY TO PRODUCE COMPLEX METAL PROTOTYPES
This additive manufacturing process is best suited for producing complicated metal prototypes and is great for use in medical, mobility products, aerospace, and defense related applications because of its ability to produce very fine features. DMLS bypasses the standard metal prototype limitations of CNC and investment casting. Parts produced using the technology are strong and dense, making them ideal for field testing and engineering evaluation.
FUNCTIONALITY TESTING
DMLS will provide you with a superior strength to withstand rigorous testing
HIGH QUALITY
Provides high quality metal prototypes with outstanding accuracy
FINISHING EXPERTISE
Services including media blasting, polishing, and painting to match final product

DESIGN ADVANTAGES OF DIRECT METAL LASER SINTERING
- 3D Printing’s maximum design flexibility allows you to streamline metal component design to include part consolidation. This reduces assembly by welding speeding up prototyping and production reducing time to market.
REACHING PART PERFORMANCE GOALS
- DMLS provides the opportunity for design optimization. It can build hollowed geometries and open lattice to replace solid structures within a part with the goal of maximizing performance while minimizing material and weight.
OUR EXPERTISE AND MATERIAL OPTIONS IN YOUR PROTOTYPES
- ARRK offers different material options Stainless steel, Aluminum, Inconel, Titanium, Cobalt Chrome, with our DMLS. We believe in combining the newest, latest, and greatest technologies with master craftsmanship to bring your products to market quickly and economically.

TESTIMONIALS
ARRK is my go to prototyping supplier when I want a high quality prototype delivered on time. I know I will get a prototype that has the look of a release ready product and I will get it on the promised delivery date. I frequently get compliments on ARRK built parts for their fit and finish. The conversation typically starts with “Is this a prototype or actual part?” The conversation ends with “ Where did you get that done?” In fact, the parts are of such high quality that I have to frequently remind people that they are prototypes so be careful with them!
EngineerMedical Device Manufacturing Company 
In the nearly 30 years of developing products there is only one company we go to now to “partner” with on our product development; ARRK Product Development Group. We know we can count on their quality, experience, ability, skill and turnaround time which is essential to our success. ARRK is more of a partner in this process than a company that just delivers parts. They advise and consult with us as we go along the development process. We can count on them to deliver what they promise without any excuses. ARRK plays an instrumental part in our success.
Sr. Engineering ManagerDesign and Engineering Company
ARRK consistently meets constrained schedules to deliver top quality models each time. Their customer service is second to none in the passion and commitment to ensure the customer’s requirements are met. Their overall level of excellence remains the reason that they are our primary source for rapid prototyping.
