Abstract:

As a key technology of rapid prototyping and manufacturing(RP&M), rapid manufacturing of metal parts is a target of RP&M. Introducing selective laser sintering(SLS), an important branch of RP&M, this paper gives a new method oriented on low-power SLS system to fabricate metal parts. With this kind of technology, the mixture of metal and polymer powder is sintered first to get green part, then, after debinding and metal infiltration, dense parts are gotten. In the end, influencing factors of this technology are analyzed. At the same time, some applications are given.
