Beyond boundaries: discover SLS potential

From drones and fashion to environmental innovation and research labs — Sinterit’s open SLS ecosystem unlocks endless possibilities. Wherever design freedom, precision, or independence are needed, Lisa X and Suzy deliver

Expanding possibilities: other fields of use for SLS 3D printing



SLS 3D printing is no longer confined to a specific niche. Thanks to its design freedom, material strength, and open devlopment potential, it enables advanced applications that fall outside traditional manufacturing or prototyping categories. These “other fields” are where innovation thrives — and Sinterit solutions are built to support them.

Experimental & open-ended research



Lisa X, with its open parameters and advanced software, empowers experimental workflows in materials, physics, biomechanics, and structural design. Researchers can tweak sintering settings, test new powder blends, or validate radical part geometries — all in-house and on-demand. Whether it’s lattice studies, bio-inspired structures, or student research projects, Lisa X provides a flexible platform that scales with curiosity.

Functional tooling for specialized industries



SLS also proves valuable in low-volume or custom tool creation for specific industries like food packaging, art restoration, energy, or robotics. Need a sensor casing with unique mounting? A jig that fits a hand-built device? SLS enables one-off precision manufacturing where no standard part fits the job.

Wearables, fashion & product customization



For companies exploring the intersection of fashion, ergonomics, and technology, SLS opens new territory. Designers can prototype or produce custom-fit wristbands, wearable tech housings, even conceptual pieces that merge art and function — without mold constraints or design limitations.

Eco-conscious production & HP Used strategy



SLS is inherently more sustainable than subtractive methods — and with Sinterit, you can go even further. Our printers are designed for high powder reusability, minimizing waste with every print. Through HP Used (rejected MJF powder), customers can either reuse their own powder no longer suitable for MJF or buy used powder from others — giving materials a second life and significantly reducing environmental impact. In an era where sustainability matters, this is a real competitive advantage.

What excites me most about SLS is how often it’s used in ways we never predicted — aerospace teams printing custom air ducts, universities testing meta-materials, or sustainability-focused companies creating zero-waste models with HP Used. SLS isn’t locked into one industry — it’s a tool for people who build, test, and rethink what’s possible. That’s why we keep the system open and flexible — to make sure it grows with the ideas of our users. With Lisa X, even experimental workflows become production-ready. Every week we hear a new use case — and that’s exactly the point.

…sky’s the limit with Lisa X



Lisa X isn’t just a printer — it’s a platform for engineering freedom. Whether you’re developing tomorrow’s aerospace system, experimenting with zero-waste production models, or building solutions not yet imagined, SLS gives you the precision and agility to get there faster. And with the growing network of Sinterit users sharing materials, settings, and ideas — you’re never innovating alone.

FAQ – advanced & unconventional SLS use cases

Can SLS be used for drone development and aerospace applications?

Yes. SLS is widely used in UAVs and aerospace for lightweight, high-strength parts like enclosures, ducts, and functional prototypes that must withstand vibration, airflow, or mechanical stress.


What is HP Used and how does it support sustainability?

HP Used is a powder reuse and exchange strategy that lets you reprocess your own used MJF powder or source already-used powder from others. It’s an eco-conscious way to reduce material waste and embrace circular manufacturing.

Is SLS suitable for experimental research or material testing?

Definitely. Lisa X supports open parameters, enabling researchers to modify sintering settings, develop new powder blends, and run complex test geometries — all in-house and repeatably.

Can artists or designers use SLS for functional or conceptual pieces?

Yes. Artists and product designers use SLS to create detailed, one-off pieces or customized series — all without molds or tooling. The design freedom is perfect for limited editions or experimental shapes.

Is it possible to use SLS for tooling or jigs in non-industrial sectors?

Absolutely. Many service teams, museums, and labs print one-off holders, fixtures, or protective parts — tailored to very specific tasks, devices, or objects.

Do I need to use only certified materials for non-standard applications?

Not necessarily. While certified powders are important for regulated industries, open-parameter platforms like Lisa X allow safe experimentation with verified materials under your own testing protocols.

Can SLS be used for 3D printed fashion or wearables?

Yes. Designers can create ergonomic shapes, ventilated structures, and expressive geometries with durable nylon materials like PA12, PA11 or TPU— suitable for wearables, straps, or conceptual apparel.

Is SLS too advanced for non-engineering use cases?

No — Sinterit systems are easy to use even for small teams or creative professionals, especially with our guided software, pre-tested profiles, and automation-ready workflows.

How do I know if SLS is right for my niche application?

If you value design freedom, mechanical performance, and independence from suppliers — SLS is likely a great fit. Let’s discuss your use case and see what’s possible.

Is there a limit to how SLS can be used?

Not really. With the right setup, materials, and creativity — there’s almost no limit to what can be built. That’s why we say: with Lisa X, sky’s the limit.

Pricing

Below there are approximate costs for some example models.
Be aware that the quotation assumes that there is only one piece printed. In SLS technology, the cost per part will be much lower with a higher number of elements printed at once.
