Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) uses a CO2 laser to sinter (fuse) powder based materials together, layer-by-layer, to create a solid prototype. SLS can build highly complex parts with a wide variety of materials.
The key advantage of SLS is its ability to produce functional prototypes with production-like qualities and premium low ash casting patterns for the production of metal parts.
