SLS Powder

What is SLS powder?

Selective Laser Sintering uses a specific technology to print complete products from nylon. This is what 3D printing is all about. To achieve this, you need SLS powder. This works like this:

1. Placing SLS powder in the 3D printer: Placing the SLS powder in the 3D printer is the easiest part. Once you've done this, it's time to start the process.

2. 'Lay out' a layer of SLS powder: By starting the process, the 3D printer 'lays out' a layer of SLS powder. After this gets it ready, it's immediately time for the next step.

3. Fusing SLS powder with laser: The next step is that the 3D printer fuses the SLS powder with the laser. By doing this with the right precision, an end product is created layer by layer.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3: Steps 2 and 3 are successively repeated until the final product is printed in its entirety.

3D Printer SLS Powder

It is the 3D printer that glues the different layers together. Thus, the method with SLS powder ensures a very firm end result. This is one of the unique advantages of this method. A 3D printed object using Selective Laser Sintering is very strong. Moreover, they are very easy to edit. Think, for example, of applying a layer of lacquer, a coating or a specific color combination. Thanks to these advantages, we regularly see that SLS powder is used in the production of functional prototypes. The properties of the powder make it look representative.

Sinterit PA12 SLS powder is perfect for detailed objects and general prototypes

Sinterit PA12 Smooth is a type of SLS powder that is known for its specific good mechanical properties. This in combination with, for example, a very good surface resolution. This makes Sinterit PA12 Smooth perfectly suitable for use in environments with high temperatures. The heat-resistant capacities prevent deformation or damage from occurring. Something that can't exactly be used with a prototype, for example. Overall, the applications for Sinterit PA12 Smooth include prototypes, specific end products, highly detailed product parts, heat-resistant parts and parts that require good chemical resistance. Do you currently need Sinterit PA12 Smooth as SLS powder? Then this is an ideal time to make your move. You will be up and running with your 3D printer in no time. As a result of this order, you will soon discover why it is so widely used in the industry. The many benefits of high quality SLS powder speak for themselves!
