3 unusual facts about Selective Heat Sintering


Selective Heat Sintering

Selective Heat Sintering (SHS) is an Additive Manufacturing technique used for low volume production and prototyping of models and components.

•

SHS works by using a thermal printhead as opposed to a laser in Selective laser sintering to direct heat to layers of powdered thermoplastic.

•

Because unused powder can be reused, there is little waste when compared to Subtractive Manufacturing methods.
