Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is a powder-based 3D printing technology that produces sturdy and versatile end-use parts and objects using nylon. It is used in prototyping as well as low volume batch production runs. Its ability to create complex geometries with superb ease, makes it an excellent choice for creating functional parts and components, giving infinite design freedom. The advantage of no support structures in this technology, makes it suitable for interlocking parts, moving parts, living hinges and other highly complex designs.
SLA 3D print engines and enable rigid, tough/durable, clear, casting, high-temp, composites and specialty materials to meet your application and product requirements. Rapidly 3D print prototypes, investment casting patterns, thermoforming molds, and more, and integrate with our software technologies to enable mass-custom manufacturing processes in your production line.
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a swift and efficient 3D printing technology that smoothly iterates designs using thermoplastic materials. It’s cost-effective and is applied for making parts that require the formation and visual validation. What makes FDM a great option is the durability of the materials it uses, the stability of its mechanical properties in the long term and the quality at the core. They are suitable for fine and functional prototypes, lasting manufacturing tools and parts.
