In SLS 3D printing, the unused powder serves as support material during the printing process, eliminating the need for additional supports and enabling the production of highly intricate and complex designs. Additionally, the unused powder can be recycled and prepared for the next print job, helping to reduce material waste. It is recommended to maintain a refresh rate that matches the packing density of the build chamber to achieve optimal waste reduction. The parts in the video were printed on

SLS 3D printing technology creates durable, rugged, and highly accurate parts in materials that are already familiar to industrial customers, like nylon and TPU. The Fuse 1 30W can deliver minimum feature sizes of 0.2 mm consistently, and create complex, organic shapes without any supports, making post-processing easier while enabling new geometries. Finally, SLS 3D printer build chambers are self-supporting, so drone manufacturers can print multiple builds at once, stacking the components on to
