SLS Selective Laser Sintering
No supports needed — functional parts printed directly. Xinda's nylon powder laser sintering forms complex cavities, lattices, and overhangs in one build, with part strength close to injection-molded parts, ideal for functional validation and low-volume delivery.
Process Overview
SLS Selective Laser Sintering
SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) builds parts by laser-sintering nylon powder layer by layer; the powder bed supports itself, so no extra support structures are needed.
- Support-free forming: self-supporting powder prints complex cavities and overhangs directly
- Nylon functional parts: PA12/PA11 strength allows direct assembly and functional testing
- High batch efficiency: large powder bed prints dozens of parts per run, ideal for low volume

SLS Laser Sintering Technical Advantages
SLS (Selective Laser Sintering) uses high-energy lasers to sinter powder layer by layer, enabling complex geometries without support structures. Xinda uses nylon PA12, PA11, and other materials for high-strength, heat-resistant parts suitable for functional testing and end-use applications.
SLS parts have a fine powdery surface texture. Post-processing options include sandblasting, dyeing, and infiltration strengthening. Ideal for functional prototypes, assembly verification, and low-volume end-use parts.
