Technology
AlSi₁₀Mg is a lightweight, high-strength aluminum alloy designed for industrial 3D printing using SLM and DMLS. With 90% aluminum, 10% silicon, and magnesium, it offers an excellent strength-to-weight ratio, perfect for precision-engineered, load-bearing metal parts.
Renowned for its corrosion resistance, thermal conductivity, and heat tolerance, AlSi₁₀Mg ensures dimensional accuracy, CNC machinability, and supports TIG/MIG welding. It's also non-magnetic and heat treatable, ideal for functional prototypes, custom tooling, and technical assemblies.
At LAYERX, we provide high-precision AlSi₁₀Mg 3D printing services in Dubai for custom metal parts, low-volume manufacturing, and rapid prototyping with fast lead times and superior quality.
