CNC Speedform Purchases a Second Sinterstation Pro SLS System

3D Systems announces that CNC Speedform has purchased a second Sinterstation Pro 230 SLS System to help meet the growing demand for its Selective Laser Sintering parts manufacturing services.

With their large build-volume capacity, the Sinterstation Pro 140 and 230 Systems use reliable, intelligent technology to transform computer aided design data into ready-to-use, accurate and durable three-dimensional plastic parts. The Sinterstation Pro series has short warm-up and cool-down periods for faster machine turnaround times that result in considerable total cost of ownership savings and a competitive edge.

In addition to superior throughput and utilization, the large part-sizes that can be produced on Sinterstation Pro 140 and 230 Systems are unmatched by any other competitive product on the market. These systems produce parts with high accuracy, excellent resolution and smooth surface finish, and are suited for use in short-run Rapid Manufacturing applications in the aerospace, automotive and motor sport industries. The Sinterstation Pro System, coupled with 3D Systems new DuraForm EX Plastic, delivers quality parts without expensive molds and long lead times that have the quality of injection-molded parts.

These benefits were attractive to Karl-Heinz Mers, chairman of CNC Speedform, when his company purchased its first Sinterstation Pro 230 SLS System last summer. With that system, the German company was able to respond quickly and effectively to the growing needs of its customers. Having had such a good experience, CNC Speedform recently decided to purchase a second Sinterstation Pro System.
