Aurora Labs is bringing its futuristic 3D printing technology to the fore through the development of its market-leading “Rapid Manufacturing Printer One”, or “RMP1”. The RMP1 3D printer uses a process called “direct metal laser melting”, that can print more than a single layer at a time, which the company has trademarked as “Multi-layer Concurrent Printing”. This printer is the stuff of the future – it literally melts metal powder and builds a product or part from the ground up.
