Ultrasint PA6 MF
Ultrasint PA6 MF is a mineral-filled polyamide with excellent tensile strength, stiffness, thermal properties, and chemical resistance. This high-performance material is ideal for functional prototyping, particularly in the automotive industry, which requires a stiff material that has both high thermal resistance as well as chemical resistance similar to injection-molded PA6.

How Does Laser Sintering Work?
Laser Sintering is a laser-based technology that uses solid powder materials, typically plastics. A computer-controlled laser beam selectively binds together particles in the powder bed, by raising the powder temperature above the glass transition point after which adjacent particles flow together. As the powder is self-supporting, no support structures are necessary.
