3D printing technologies:
SLS, SLA and SLM

Bring your boldest projects to life with precision, speed and flexibility.

Innovative technologies for precise results

With the development of 3D printing technology, manufacturing processes are changing dramatically, providing new opportunities for plastics and metals processing. The three leading technologies – SLS (Selective Laser Sintering), SLA (Stereolithography) and SLM (Selective Laser Melting) – offer significant advantages over traditional manufacturing.

SLS – Selective Laser Sintering

SLS is a technology that uses a laser to sinter a powdered material, usually plastic, to create a finished object.

Flexibility in design

Allows the creation of complex geometries without the need for additional tools.

Minimum waste

Residual dust can be recycled for future use.

High resistance

The parts produced by SLS are robust and wear resistant.

SLA – Stereolithography

SLA is a method that uses a UV laser to cure a liquid photopolymer layer by layer.

Exceptional precision

Provides high resolution and detail.

Smooth surface

Finished parts require minimal post-processing.

Suitable for prototypes

Ideal for creating visual and functional prototypes.

SLM – Selective Laser Melting

SLM uses a powerful laser to melt metal powder, layer by layer, to form a solid metal part.

Manufacture of complex metal parts

Allows the creation of parts that are virtually impossible to make using traditional methods.

High mechanical strength

The parts are comparable or even superior in strength to traditionally machined metal products.

Reduced weight

Allows optimization of the structure to achieve lighter components.
