BLT BLP-S500

Bright Laser Technologies (BLT) is China's leading metal additive manufacturing equipment company, publicly listed on the Shanghai STAR Market. The BLP-S500 features a 500mm³ build volume with 4 x 500W lasers — the largest and most productive laser powder bed fusion system from a Chinese manufacturer. At $400,000–$800,000, it competes with EOS M 400-4 and SLM Solutions NXG XII 600 at significantly lower cost. BLT holds AS9100D aerospace certification and supplies 3D printed titanium and nickel superalloy parts to China's aerospace and defense industry, including components for the C919 commercial aircraft and Long March rocket program. BLT's vertically integrated approach — manufacturing both the printers and the metal powders — provides cost and quality control advantages.
