Everything you need to know about Selective Laser 3D Sintering
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) uses the “sintering” technique in which a powdered raw material is heated and compressed simultaneously to form a solid, specific mass. Sintering works by compressing the powdered raw material through a combination of heat and pressure. Although sintering does not outright melt the powdered raw material, it applies just enough heat for the atoms to separate and diffuse together once more. Benefits of using Selective Laser 3D Sintering Selective Laser 3D Sintering , also known as, SLS 3D printing, or simply as SLS, is the go-to method for batch production of customized components and rapid prototyping. This technique has found incredible use in industrial-scale applications thanks to its reliability, precision and faster production process. Let’s take a look at some of the express benefits of using Selective Laser 3D Printing technique in manufacturing: 1 – No support structures are needed One of the major benefits of using SLS 3D printing is th
