Low volume manufacturing

SLS is an interesting and cost-effective alternative to injection moulding. With the EOSINT P700 machine which has a large build area, a series of small pieces can be built in one single laser sintering process. This dramatically decreases the price, as the cost of an SLS part depends on the volume of powder it takes to build it and not by an initial investment in an injection moulding tool. Moreover, series of SLS parts are available in a few days. So no need for high start-up investments, no long lead times to produce a mould and injection mould the parts, no difficulties in complex parts.

.MGX often uses selective laser sintering to produce design and trend objects. Unique, personalised designs are built as once-only products or in a small number of copies. The process of selective laser sintering offers more freedom in terms of design and shape than traditional production techniques.
