What is SLS 3D Printing
SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) uses a high-power laser to selectively fuse layers of powder material based on 3D CAD data. The unsintered powder provides natural support, eliminating the need for additional support structures.
SLS offers excellent design flexibility, good mechanical properties, and is ideal for functional prototypes, complex parts, assembly components, and small to medium batch production.
