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 is a great option for printing complex assemblies, particularly print-in-place models. The underlying powder supports each layer, meaning you don't need supports and orientation does not matter. Here is a fun 3D printed vise made on the Fuse 1 . Fuse: https://bit.ly/3W4x0ZU | Formlabs

Advances in machinery, materials, and software have made SLS printing accessible to a wider range of businesses, enabling more companies to use these tools that were previously limited to a few high-tech industries. 3D Printer: Formlabs Fuse 1 Designed by Miranda Chapman | Formlabs
