Abstract The Direct Metal Laser Sintering (DMLS) process for EOS is well established for the netshape fabrication of prototype and short series tooling for plastic injection molding and diecasting. At present, recent developments in the powders coupled with the durability of the materials are extending the reach of DMLS to the direct manufacturing of functional prototypes of powder metallurgical (PM) and cast components. This paper reviews the development of DMLS and its current and potential applications. (Edited abstract) 3 Refs. (Auth abstract) XX
