Manufacturing

Laser-sintering is a technology for manufacturing end products. The flexibility inherent in this mode of manufacturing is ideally suited to implementing customer-specific requirements. All you need are 3D CAD data. These can be provided by the customer himself. As a result, you can serve niche markets with low volumes at competitive costs. Laser-sintering is independent of economies of scale. This liberates you from focusing on batch size optimization. Your focus can shift to current demand for a product customized to the specific wishes of the individual customer. With laser-sintering you no longer have to anticipate customer demand. You can manufacture when the customer wants you to – in extreme cases one piece at a time. Tool-less production with laser-sintering makes it possible to manufacture different products, one next to the other, in one single process. Since laser-sintering does not require lengthy lead times, you can respond to individual customer demand very quickly and cost-effectively.

This makes laser-sintering a viable manufacturing alternative.

Even if the customer's requirements change suddenly, you can react quickly and flexibly. For example, a customer demands a different shape for the product housing or he would like to integrate an additional function. With laser-sintering you can instantly address this customer demand. All you need is the adapted CAD data. As a result, you can react immediately to a change in customer demand, both in terms of quantity and product properties.
