选择性雷射烧结设备全球市场定义
选择性雷射烧结 (SLS) 是一种 3D 列印技术,采用粉末床融合製程来建构三维实体模型。 SLS 使用高功率雷射来硬化弹性体或尼龙材料的小颗粒,并将它们黏合成三维结构层。在 SLS 机器中,雷射光束从 CAD 图纸中收集模型的详细座标,然后根据要求添加粉末层。每完成一层,就将表面再次撒上粉末,并重复该过程,直到模型完成。
该技术的主要优点是它不需要其他一些印刷技术所需的支撑结构来防止设计在生产过程中崩溃。此外,消除破损风险使得列印复杂的内部组件和零件成为可能。例如GPS产品的原型开发、香水瓶设计、洗衣机和洗碗机的外部机身设计。
选择性雷射烧结设备的全球市场概况
预测期内,政府对 3D 列印的投资增加可能会促进选择性雷射烧结设备市场的成长。世界各国政府正在采取多项措施并投入大量资金来加速 3D 列印的普及。例如,在英国,政府已发放约550万美元用于3D列印。在德国,官员们提议设立一个新部门来推动该国在 3D 列印和工业 4.0 等新兴技术领域的发展。
中国国家增材製造创新中心已拨款1.32亿美元用于3D列印领域的研发。此外,该国还计划在小学安装 3D 列印机。因此,预测期内政府对 3D 列印的增加投资可能会促进选择性雷射烧结设备市场的成长。此外,对高速生产的需求不断增长也可能促进预测期内选择性雷射烧结设备市场的成长。传统上,製造用于重型机械大规模生产的模具、夹具、固定装置和其他工具成本高且耗时。
随着 3D 列印的引入,这个过程发生了彻底的改变,使得工具製造能够在更短的时间内、更经济高效地在现场完成。此外,製造商可以从 3D 列印中获益,因为它有助于快速成型,从而实现按需製造而不是大规模生产和仓储。将 3D 列印纳入系统可以使製造更快、更便宜。因此,对高速生产的需求不断增长可能会在预测期内促进选择性雷射烧结设备市场的成长。然而,零件收缩可能会在预测期内抑制选择性雷射烧结设备市场的成长。
在 SLS 中,用于形成 3D 原型的材料是粉末形式,通常由尼龙材料製成。这些粉末材料被转变成原型,然后收缩。这种收缩问题是由多种因素引起的,包括所使用的粉末类型、加工过程中使用的雷射的功率水平以及所使用的冷却程序。收缩不是对称发生的,并且可以发生在身体的任何部位。此问题会降低印表机製作的原型的品质。因此,零件收缩可能在预测期内成为选择性雷射烧结设备市场成长的阻碍因素。

Global Selective Laser Sintering Equipment Market Definition
Selective laser sintering (SLS) is a type of 3D printing technology employed in the powder bed fusion process used for building a three-dimensional solid model. In SLS, a high-powered laser is used to harden and bond small grains of elastomer and nylon materials into layers in a three-dimensional structure. In SLS equipment, the laser beam collects detailed coordinates of the model from a CAD drawing, and as per the requirement, a powder bed is added. Once the layer is finished, again, the surface is powdered and this procedure is repeated until the model is completed.
The major benefit of this technique is it does not need the support structure that several other printing technologies require in order to prevent the design from caving in during production. Moreover, it allows the building of complex interior components and parts by eradicating the risk of damage. SLS equipment is extensively used in prototyping and functional prototyping of consumer electronic devices-e.g., developing prototypes for GPS products; designing perfume bottles; designing washing machines and dishwasher exterior bodies, among others.
Global Selective Laser Sintering Equipment Market Overview
Increasing government investments in 3D printing may contribute to the growth of the Selective Laser Sintering Equipment Market, during the forecast period. The governing authorities across the globe are taking numerous initiatives and investing an immense amount to lift the adoption of 3D printing. For instance, in the UK, the government issued approximately USD 5.5 million for 3D printing. In Germany, the governing authorities suggested forming a new department that may work for the development of the country in the domain of emerging technologies such as 3D printing and industrial 4.0.
The National Additive Manufacturing Innovation Centre in China designated USD 132 million for R&D in the field of 3D printing. Moreover, the country also has the objective to install 3D printers in elementary schools. Thus, increasing government investments in 3D printing may contribute to the growth of the Selective Laser Sintering Equipment Market, during the forecast period. In addition, increasing demand for faster production may contribute to the growth of the Selective Laser Sintering Equipment Market, during the forecast period. Conventionally, the manufacturing of tools such as molds, jigs, fixtures, and other such tools used in the mass production of heavy equipment was expensive and time-consuming.
This process is changed completely by the implementation of 3D printing, as the tooling can be done cost-effectively on-site in lesser time. Moreover, the manufacturers can get the advantage of 3D printing as it helps in rapid prototyping and enables on-demand manufacturing instead of mass production and storage in the warehouse. Manufacturing can be faster and cheaper with the incorporation of 3D printing into the system. Thus, increasing demand for faster production may contribute to the growth of the Selective Laser Sintering Equipment Market, during the forecast period. However, the shrinking of parts may be a restraining factor for the growth of the Selective Laser Sintering Equipment Market, during the forecast period.
In SLS, the material used to form the 3D prototype is in powdered form and is usually made of nylon material. These powdered materials after being converted into prototypes get shrunk. This issue of shrinkage is compelled by various factors such as the type of powder used, the power level of the laser used in the process, and the cooling procedure used. The shrinkage does not occur in a symmetric manner, it can occur in any part. This issue can reduce the quality of the prototype made by the printer. Thus, the shrinking of parts may be a restraining factor for the growth of the Selective Laser Sintering Equipment Market, during the forecast period.
