[QUOTE="RPD Josh, post: 372362, member: 28967"] You are close but a little off on the process there. You print the metal by laser welding the metal powder then throw that entire puck in the oven (supports have to remain on) and its between 800-1100 c for 15-60 minutes. then remove supports and do the normal finish polish process. The annealing oven is relieving the built up stresses from the rapid heating and cooling of the print process and without supports in place the partials would warp and distort. The oven temp needs to be pretty high for partials with a relatively rapid cool for flexibility where as bars and copings need a slow step down similar to zirconia. If you ever have any questions on the process we print a ton here at GPS Digital RPD and I am always willing to talk about the process or help if your having an issue with your printer. [/QUOTE]
