The Snapmaker laser 3D printer is not designed to print metal, primarily because of the limitations of the laser module. The laser module used in the Snapmaker printer is typically a low-power diode laser, which is not strong enough to cut through or melt metal materials.
Metal materials typically require high-power lasers or specialized laser technologies, such as fiber lasers, to cut or melt them. The Snapmaker laser module is primarily designed for cutting and engraving materials such as wood, acrylic, leather, and cardboard. Printing metal using traditional 3D printing techniques such as FDM or resin printing requires specialized metal filaments or resins, which are typically more expensive and difficult to...

Metal materials typically require high-power lasers or specialized laser technologies, such as fiber lasers, to cut or melt them. The Snapmaker laser module is primarily designed for cutting and engraving materials such as wood, acrylic, leather, and cardboard. Printing metal using traditional 3D printing techniques such as FDM or resin printing requires specialized metal filaments or resins, which are typically more expensive and difficult to work with than standard filaments. As a result, metal printing is not commonly done on most consumer-grade 3D printers, including the Snapmaker.
