The advantages of selective laser sintering

A thermoplastic material
Powder laser sintering (SLS) is a 3D printing technology that consists of manufacturing parts by agglomerating particles of material. The materials used are generally thermoplastics or metals in the form of 50 micron powder.
The powder is agglomerated by successive stacking of layers of about 0.1 mm thick. On each layer, the material is transformed by a laser beam which brings the necessary energy to reach the fusion point.
Technical parts
without support
Laser sintering allows to obtain technical materials able to resist mechanical and thermal constraints.
In addition, you will be able to print very complex shapes since no support is used during the manufacturing process, the manufactured parts resting on the unprocessed powder bed.
Prototype, tooling, small series in laser sintering
Given its characteristics, powder sintering is particularly used to manufacture functional prototypes, models, tools, and even serial parts.
The materials available for powder sintering are: PA, PAGF and flame retardant PA powder
Our powders for laser sintering
PA powder (SLS)
Polyamide (nylon) is a resistant thermoplastic material for physical tests and functional use in real conditions. Used for powder sintering printing, it is very suitable for the production of mechanical parts for prototypes, small series or tooling. This material is USP Class VI compliant, and compatible with autoclave sterilization. It has good chemical resistance and low moisture absorption.
PAGF powder (SLS)
Polyamide (nylon) is a resistant thermoplastic material for physical tests and functional use in real conditions. Used for powder sintering printing, it is very suitable for the production of mechanical parts for prototypes, small series or tooling. This material is USP Class VI compliant, and compatible with autoclave sterilization. It has good chemical resistance and low moisture absorption.
Flame retardant PA powder (SLS)
Polyamide (nylon) is a resistant thermoplastic material for physical tests and functional use in real conditions. Used for powder sintering printing, it is suitable for the production of mechanical parts in the aeronautical, automotive and electrical industries. This material has a good thermal stability and allows to limit the propagation of fire in case of fire, it has obtained the JAR 25 certification, the aviation acceptance criterion. Its chemical resistance is good.
