Broad Material Compatibility
The S260 SLS 3D printer supports a wide range of high-performance polymer materials, including PA11, PA12, PA6X, PP, TPU, and reinforced composites. This allows the manufacturing of parts with tailored mechanical strength, heat resistance, and durability.
Seamless Integration with PPS
Combine the S260 with TPM3D’s Part & Powder Processing Station (PPS). The PPS largely prevents powder leakage and dust, and streamlines post-processing — shortening production time and reducing operating costs.
