Industrial 3D PrintingTechnologies

Selective Laser Sintering uses a laser to fuse thermoplastic powder layer by layer, creating parts without support structures.

SLS produces high-strength thermoplastic parts with complex geometries and exceptional isotropic properties, making it ideal for functional prototypes and end-use parts. The ability to print complex internal geometries without supports enables innovative designs that would be impossible with traditional manufacturing methods.
