EOS M 290-2 AM System
EOS announces its newest member of the EOS M 290 family, the EOS M 290-2, growing the M 290 family of metal additive manufacturing (AM) systems to three, and setting a new productivity and quality standard for metal serial production.
Based on the time-tested EOS M 290 and developed through EOS’ AMCM group, the newest EOS M 290-2 system boasts two (2) 400-watt lasers with full-field overlap and is compatible with the existing EOS M 290 process parameter sets: same focus and beam quality. The dual head EOS M 290-2 laser set-up features:

The dual head EOS M 290-2 laser set-up features:
- Optimized laminar gas flow ensuring the comparability of material properties
- The familiar 250x250x325mm (9.85 x 9.85 x 12.8in) build volume
- A digital scanner with active cooling, up to 7.0 m/s (23 ft./s)
- Process quality and material library comparable to EOS M 290 single field
The EOS M 290 family
With varying market demands, the new EOS M 290-2 will be offered alongside the EOS M 290, as well as the recently introduced EOS M 290 1kW — developed for organizations that typically leverage copper and copper alloys for applications like heat exchangers and inductors.
An early adopter of the EOS M 290-2, Nordic-based AMEXCI piloted the new system and through the increased productivity of dual lasers, attained a 76% reduction in cost-per-part for the tested application against the original EOS M 290 build.
