Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)

  • Description

    Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) uses a laser to sinter powdered material, binding it together to create a solid structure.

  • Features

    No Need for Support Structures: SLS can produce complex geometries without the need for support structures, allowing for more design freedom.

    High Strength and Durability: Parts exhibit high mechanical strength and durability, making them suitable for functional and load-bearing applications.

    Broad Material Selection: Ability to use a wide range of materials including polymers, metals, and ceramics.

    Ideal for Functional Parts: Suitable for producing parts that need to withstand mechanical stress and high temperatures.

  • Materials Used

    Polymers (e.g., nylon), metals, and ceramics.

  • Applications

    Aerospace components, medical devices, consumer products, and functional prototypes.

  • Advantages

    High strength and durability, no need for support structures, and complex geometries.
