Selective Laser Sintering (SLS)

How It Works

Infrared laser sinters powdered plastics into a solid structure one layer at a time.

Why SLS?

  • Tough Engineering Plastics
  • Materials for Functional Testing or Small Batches
  • Difficult Geometries Such as Interlocking or Moving Parts
  • Impact Resistant
  • High Temperature
  • Flexible
  • Flame Retardant
  • Chemical and Dirt Resistant
  • Design Verification: Form, Fit and Function
