What is SLS 3D Printing?
Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is an advanced 3D printing technique tailored for producing end-use components. In this method, a laser precisely fuses polymer powder particles, layer by layer, to construct parts. SLS creates functional plastic items with uniform mechanical properties, making

Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) Materials
PA 11 Black (PA 850) provides ductility and flexibility without sacrificing tensile strength and temperature resistance. These characteristics make PA 850 a widely used general-purpose material for functional and moving parts.
Primary Benefits
- Highest elongation at break of all additively manufactured nylons
- Uniform deep-black color that showcases features and provides a clean appearance
PA12 Black has all-around great mechanical properties and chemical resistance and is ideal for functional parts and prototypes.
Primary Benefits
- Highly isotropic mechanical properties
- Economical material choice
PA 12 White (PA 650) is a go-to material for general-purpose applications like functional and end-use parts. PA 650 is the strongest of the unfilled nylon materials and it is slightly stiffer than PA 11 Black.
Primary Benefits
- Economical material choice
- Strength and stiffness
PA12 Mineral-Filled (PA620-MF) is a 25% mineral fiber-filled PA powder. The fiber content significantly increases stiffness and HDT (up to 363 °F). It is a good material option when stiffness and high temperature resistance are important requirements.
Primary Benefits
- Highest stiffness of all additively manufactured nylons
- Temperature resistance
PA12 40% Glass-Filled (PA614-GS) is a PA powder loaded with glass spheres that make it stiff and dimensionally stable. This material is an ideal candidate for parts that require long term wear resistance properties. Due to the glass additive, it has decreased impact and tensile strengths compared to other nylons.
Primary Benefits
- Long-term wear resistance
- Increased stiffness
Polypropylene Natural offers chemical resistance properties that are top among the SLS and MJF material offerings. This tough and durable, yet flexible, material offers resistance to most acids and is a low weight material option.
Primary Benefits
- Chemical resistance
- Durable, low weight material
TPU 70-A is a white thermoplastic polyurethane that combines rubber-like elasticity and elongation with good abrasion and impact resistance properties. The rubber-like quality of this material make it ideal for seals, gaskets, grips, hoses, or any other application where excellent resistance under dynamic loading is required.
Primary Benefits
- High elongation at break
- Flexibility

Applications for Selective Laser Sintering
Concept Models
The speed and flexibility of SLS printing allow product developers to rapidly produce tangible representations of their designs during the iterative development process.
Rapid Prototyping
SLS prototyping enables the creation of fully operational prototypes, incorporating moving parts, and can also produce complete assemblies in a single process.
Direct Digital Manufacturing
The precision and reliability of Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) make it an optimal method for producing substantial quantities of either uniform or custom-designed parts.
