Laser Sintering Facilities  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Laser sintering is an additive manufacturing technology with which components can be built in a materials layering process on the basis of digital 3D design data. The term “3D printing” is being used more and more as a synonym for it. Laser sintering is, however, unlike classic 3D printing, a professional manufacturing method that produces extremely accurate, mechanically highly robust, series-compatible components.
The process differs significantly from conventional erosive manufacturing methods. Instead of, for example, milling a workpiece out of a solid block of material or producing a component by injection or moulding, the additive method builds parts layer by layer out of finely powdered material. Different metals, plastics and composites are available in this form.
