Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) 3D Printing at Connexus
At Connexus, SLS 3D printing stands as a core capability in our manufacturing suite, delivering precision, flexibility, and efficiency across a range of industries, including aerospace, automotive, and medical. Our advanced equipment, including EOS P 396 and 3D Systems ProX SLS 6100 machines, allows us to produce intricate, high-strength parts with top-tier accuracy, meeting both prototyping and end-use requirements.
How SLS Technology Works
Our SLS process involves a high-power CO2 laser that selectively fuses polymer powder layers based on CAD models, allowing for complex geometries without support structures. With a build resolution as fine as 0.1mm per layer, our setup achieves both high detail and consistency. The process also leverages an inert nitrogen environment to reduce oxidation and ensure durability in each build.
Material Options
- Connexus offers an array of SLS-compatible thermoplastics suited to diverse applications:
- Nylon PA 12: Known for its excellent mechanical properties—toughness, tensile strength, and impact resistance—ideal for prototyping and end-use parts.
- Glass-Filled Nylon PA 12: This reinforced material provides enhanced stiffness and thermal stability, suitable for functional parts in demanding environments.
- Alumide (Nylon PA 12 filled with aluminium): Combines lightweight properties with metallic appearance, offering a unique option for lightweight, aesthetic parts.
- Flame-Retardant PA 2241 FR: Ensures fire resistance, making it a safe choice for aerospace and electronics.
- Flexible TPU: Offers elasticity and resilience, perfect for components requiring flexibility, such as gaskets and seals.
Material Options
Our SLS parts can undergo various post-processing steps to meet functional and aesthetic needs. Options include media tumbling, dyeing, bead blasting, and vapor polishing, enhancing surface finish, colour, and durability.
