FAQ
LP-400 Dual Questions
Answers to common questions about the LP-400 Dual.
Roughly double the build rate thanks to the two overlapping lasers, though actual throughput depends on part geometry and how many parts you nest per build — our applications engineers can estimate cycle time on your specific parts.
Yes, both machines share the Layerion Forma control and material parameter library, so a process qualified on the LP-250 transfers directly rather than requiring requalification from scratch.
Typically 14-16 weeks build-to-order given the dual-laser optical system; we confirm your exact ship date once your configuration and material qualification needs are finalized.
Yes — we can quote a complete workflow including stress-relief heat treatment, support removal and finish machining on critical surfaces alongside your printer purchase.

metal powder-bed fusion printer
LP-250
The LP-250 is Layerion's entry metal 3D printer, using a single 500W fiber laser to fuse metal powder layer by layer inside a Ø250 x 325 mm build chamber. It's the platform Tollaston recommends for shops printing their first titanium, stainless or tool-steel parts — internal lattice structures, conformal-cooled mold inserts and complex geometries that traditional machining can't produce economically or at all. An inert argon or nitrogen atmosphere holding oxygen below 100 ppm keeps reactive metal powders like titanium safe to process, and Layerion's Forma control manages exposure strategy without requiring a metallurgy background to get a first print right. We pair every LP-250 with build-file training so your team owns the process end to end, not just the button-press.
