- Process and Materials
- SLS fuses small particles using laser, while SLM melts metal powder
- SLS works with various materials including plastics and metals
- SLM requires higher temperatures and energy input
- Strength and Applications
- SLM produces stronger parts with superior mechanical properties
- SLM is ideal for aerospace, medical implants, and automotive parts
- SLS is better suited for rapid prototyping and small-scale production
- Technical Characteristics
- SLS uses unfused powder as support structure
- SLM creates fully dense parts without support structures
- SLM offers better surface finish and precision
- Cost and Efficiency
- SLS is more cost-effective for desktop printers
- SLM provides higher print speeds but higher costs
- SLS requires post-processing steps for improved properties
