Benefits of the Selective Laser Sintering Technique for 3D Printing to Propel the Global SLR Technology Market

Published: Apr 2020

The Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) technology market is anticipated to showcase a significant growth rate during the forecast period. SLS is an additive production technique that uses a high powdered laser to sinter or solidify a powdered material that makes 3D printing of metal parts possible. SLS additive manufacturing technology is highly used to create prototypes in a broad spectrum of industries including automotive, aerospace, healthcare, and others owing to the advantages that it offers. Therefore, the benefit of using SLS to produce 3D printing of the required object is a major factor to promote the growth of the global SLT technique market.

The benefits of using the SLS technique include no additional requirement for the support structure, rapid building process, offers greater adhesion layer, ideal for dyeing surface, and offers mechanical properties of Nylon & Polycarbonate parts. At the time of the laser sprinting, all the hollow spaces get automatically filled with the unused powder, thus making SLS prints self-supporting. Hence, it leverages the designers with a huge degree of designing freedom. This printing made the modeling of objects with large hollow spaces, overhanging features, and very thin features quite easy. As this printing is mainly done by the use of the nylon powder it only requires very tiny exposure of laser to the object which is to be sintered, therefore making it fats building process of 3D printing.

Moreover, the SLS printing technology has been well known to offer 3D printing with a very strong layer of adhesion to the printed object owing to its characteristic of having virtually isotropic mechanical properties. The objects printed with the SLS printing technology have almost equal tensile strength, hardness, and elongation of an object in all the directions. The objects that are printed with this technology become naturally porous making them very prone to intake by moisture and other liquids. These properties of the SLS printing technology make them suitable for the purpose of the coloring parts post-printing, as dyeing by the use of the hot bath process becomes has become much more effective with the use of this technology. 

However, the objects that are printed with the use of SLS printing technology are required to have the waterproofing finishing before the exposure of the object to the high moisture conditions. 3D Systems Inc., EOS GmbH, Prodways Group, Ricoh Co., Renishaw plc, ExOne Co., FARO Technologies, Inc., Formlabs GmbH, Proto Labs, Sculpteo, Stratasys Ltd., SLM Solutions Group AG, Materialise NV, and so on are the key market operating in the global SLS technology market.
