Additive manufacturing or 3D printing is a process of making three-dimensional solid objects from a digital file with complex shapes and unique properties. The 3D printed object is created by overlapping layers of materials. Each of these layers can be thought of as a thin horizontal cross-section of the temporary object. The materials most used in the field of additive manufacturing are grouped into three main families: ceramics, metals and poly.....Read more
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) of thermoplastic polymer powders is now a widespread additive manufacturing technique. It is found in a variety of applications from aerospace to automotive, consumer products to dental and medical materials. The SLS process of thermoplastic polymer powders allows to obtain parts or products with good mechanical properties. However, above all, it allows the production of complex shapes, high value-added that cannot.....Read more
