Why Choose SLS Laser Sintering

NW Rapid Manufacturing’s SLS selective laser sintering process has many benefits over conventional manufacturing processes.

  • Laser sintering is the most durable and robust of all 3D printing technologies. The performance of parts made from laser sintering is most similar to those made using conventional manufacturing practices. Materials include nylons and composites as well as castable patterns and flexible parts.
  • Just a few parts or a few hundred can be created overnight , on demand. The process lends well to lean practices and just-in-time ordering thus reducing inventory cost and overhead.
  • The consolidation of assemblies into a single part can save labor time and cost as well as reduce the opportunity for error and complications in the quality process.
  • Turning complex assemblies in to single parts can also allow integration of features that are otherwise not possible.
