Les imprimantes 3D SLS de 3D Systems produisent des pièces thermoplastiques totalement fonctionnelles, avec la plus haute résolution et la meilleure qualité de surface de tous les procédés SLS. Les fabricants, de la conception industrielle aux appareils médicaux, en passant par les conduits d'aération et les dispositifs spécifiques aux patients, peuvent désormais gagner du temps, se libérer des tâches de conception et des contraintes économiques liées aux méthodes de fabrication traditionnelles en ABS, tout en maintenant un niveau de qualité élevé.

The production ready 3D printer for tough plastic parts.

The ProX™ 500 Selective Laser Sintering (SLS®) production 3D printer delivers superior parts with greater precision, durability and quality in a compact production-grade system that is easy to own and economical to use. Designed for the manufacturing floor, the ProX 500 produces ready-to-use functional parts and complete assemblies for a variety of aerospace, automotive, patient specific medical devices, fashion accessories, and mobile device use cases.

The compact ProX printer was developed in tandem with the revolutionary DuraForm® ProX material to produce smoother wall surfaces and injection molding-like part quality, with resolution and edge definition that surpasses existing alternatives. With over 80% material reusability, the integration of both new printer and material yields the most economical material utilization available.

The ProX 500 is equipped with 3D Systems’ latest print drivers, automated part nesting on the fly and optional, automated material handling module that streamlines production and recycling of materials for an optimal product every time.

The ProX™ 500 Plus SLS system continues to redefine production in industries such as aerospace, automotive, electronics, customized medical devices, consumer products and those needing rapid tooling. With the elevated production capabilities and repeatable results of the ProX 500 Plus, service bureaus and large manufacturing operations can rethink entire product and supply chain strategies for advanced product performance and lower total manufacturing costs.

The ProX 500 Plus delivers injection molding-grade parts without expensive fixed tooling for mass complex and mass customized production. Parts from ProX-series SLS printers exhibit long-lasting, fab-grade durability and functionality as well as smooth surface finish.

A key element of the ProX 500 Plus’s industry-leading engineering capabilities is the addition of two exclusive high-performance materials to the DuraForm ProX line:

• DuraForm® ProX™ GF is a glass-filled polyamide (Nylon) material formulated for added stiffness and temperature resistance. For parts that will undergo thermal stress or those that require high rigidity—like aircraft and automotive parts, complex housings and enclosures—DuraForm ProX GF is the go-to material.

• DuraForm ProX AF+ material is an alloy-filled polyamide (Nylon) with a realistic cast-metal appearance, extreme tensile strength and high heat deflection properties. This material is perfect for manifolds and similar under-hood automotive models in addition to jigs and fixtures—any end-use or working prototypes that simulate casted aluminum components requiring high force loading.

• DuraForm ProX EX, a Nylon 11 material that provides exceptional impact strength, increased durability and remarkable flexibility. Applications with snap-fit designs, thin-walled parts and other fine-featured models are at their most robust in DuraForm ProX EX.

The sPro™ 140 SLS Production Printer produces durable, mid-range (22 in/550mm long) high-definition plastic parts, using the broadest range of available materials.

With fully automated powder handling, recycling and material traceability, this manufacturing-ready system increases the output of your investment, ensuring maximum efficiency.

The sPro 230 production printer uses a state-of-the-art digital imaging system to accurately build large (up to 30 in/750 mm long), durable plastic parts in high-definition.

Profit from the fullest use of the broadest range of available materials with automated powder handling and material recycling and traceability.
