This lecture covers the principles of Selective Laser Sintering and Melting (SLS-M), where parts are built layer by layer from metallic, polymeric, or ceramic powder consolidated by a laser beam. It explains the distinctions between different SLS(M) processes based on binders and core particles, advantages like easy material recycling, and applications in prototyping, small series production, and customized parts.
