Magnum also provides prototype parts in SLS. The materials used in SLS can be rigid or rubber-like with flexibility.
Most materials provide up to 90% of what the actual production piece would be in terms of material properties and functionality. This means that SLS parts can actually be put into a real application.
The SLS process uses a CO2 laser to selectively sinter plastic or metal powder into a solid object. The resulting prototypes closely represent the physical properties of the final production part. Magnum's SLS rapid prototypes are ideal for prototyping applications involving:
-Functional testing
-Form & Fit Packaging
-High-temperature components
-Snap fits
-Living hinges
-Design Aides
