SLS – Production Parts – SPM-3D

Additive Technology: SLS

Selective Laser Sintering

Selective Laser Sintering is a self-supporting powder process that enables a variety of design and print strategies to increase part performance and boost print productivity.

Description

Selective Laser Sintering uses a high-power laser to fuse small particles of plastic powder. The high accuracy and consistency of SLS makes it ideal for high quality production parts.

Strengths

Supportless printing allows for complex geometries, fine features and undercuts. Parts produced with SLS have excellent mechanical characteristics, with strength resembling that of injection-molded parts.
