Ī similar process was patented without being commercialized by R. The most recent patent regarding Deckard's SLS technology was issued Januand expired January 28, 2014. In 2001, 3D Systems, the biggest competitor to DTM and SLS technology, acquired DTM. Deckard and Beaman were involved in the resulting start up company DTM, established to design and build the SLS machines. Joe Beaman at the University of Texas at Austin in the mid-1980s, under sponsorship of DARPA. Selective laser sintering (SLS) was developed and patented by Dr. Production roles are expanding as the commercialization of AM technology improves. SLS (as well as the other mentioned AM techniques) is a relatively new technology that so far has mainly been used for rapid prototyping and for low-volume production of component parts.
It is similar to selective laser melting the two are instantiations of the same concept but differ in technical details.
Selective laser sintering ( SLS) is an additive manufacturing (AM) technique that uses a laser as the power and heat source to sinter powdered material (typically nylon or polyamide), aiming the laser automatically at points in space defined by a 3D model, binding the material together to create a solid structure. An SLS machine being used at the Centro de Pesquisas Renato Archer in Brazil.
