SLS 3D Printing Services in Chennai & Coimbatore
SLS 3D Printing in Rapid 3D Technologies uses a laser to fuse particles of plastic powder together, building parts layer by layer. This powder bed technology rivals injection moulding strength and mechanical properties for short production runs of parts. SLS technology in 3D Printing Services has hardly any printing limitations, giving freedom to design and print complex geometries.
SLS is a powder bed Fusion 3D printing technology. It uses a CO2 laser to fuse tiny bits of nylon powder, tracing the geometry of digitally sliced CAD models layer by layer, after which a re-coater deposits a new layer of powder and the build platform moves down one layer in height. The process is then repeated until the parts are complete.
(Selective Laser Sintering)SLS 3D printing service in Chennai
Looking for SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) 3D printing Company near you in Chennai? Rapid 3D Technologies is an exclusive and authorised SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) 3D printing company with advanced technological tool at an affordable cost.
How does SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) 3D printing works
In Coimbatore and Chennai , Rapid 3d Technologies Service provider offers you a SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) 3D printing is an additive manufacturing technology that uses a high power laser to sinter small particles of polymer powder into solid structure based on a 3D model at low cost with high standard quality in Rapid 3D Technologies.
Printing
In SLS 3D Printing, a laser selectively sinters particles of a polymer powder, fusing them together and building a part layer by layer. The materials used in SLS 3D printing are thermoplastic polymers that come in a granular form.
Cooling
After printing, the build chambers need to slightly cool down inside the print enclosure and then outside the printer to ensure optimal mechanical properties and avoid warping in parts. This can take a significant amount of time.
Post processing
The finished parts need to be removed from the build chamber, separated, and cleaned of excess powder. The powder can be recycled, and the printed parts can be further post-processed by media blasting or media tumbling.
High Accuracy
On-demand SLS 3D printing enables you to prototype your product using industrial quality materials. Prototype matches the production, Form Fit & Functions can be easily realized
Functional Parts
Strong and durable, SLS Nylon produces best in class working properties that can either be flexible or rigid depending on the geometry of the design
Low Volume Production
SLS is a viable production method for manufacturing parts in volume. This technology can be used as an alternative to injection moulding. Key benefits include no costs for tooling or alterations.
Applications of SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) 3D printing
