Using SLS technology, Seattle 3D Printing produces nylon parts for engineering, manufacturing, and end-use applications, supporting projects from one-off prototypes to larger production quantities.
SLS technology provides good dimensional accuracy and strong mechanical properties while producing complex geometries without support structures. It can create features such as internal channels and lattice structures that are difficult to manufacture with many traditional methods.
Ideal Applications
– Jigs & fixtures
– Tooling
– Replacement parts
– End-use components
– Low-volume production
– Functional prototyping
– Custom manufacturing
– Complex part consolidation
SLS is well suited for functional prototypes, manufacturing tools and fixtures, and end-use parts. It produces durable components with complex geometries for a wide range of engineering and manufacturing applications.

With SLS technology, a high-powered laser selectively fuses powdered material layer by layer to create durable, highly accurate parts. After each layer is sintered, a fresh layer of powder is spread across the build area, and the process repeats until the part is complete.
