ProX® SLS 6100
Integrated SLS technology for production quality at a prototyping price. Produce tough, durable nylon parts with uniform 3D mechanical properties, fast build speeds and a low total cost of operations.
- 100W CO₂ laser with ProScan™ DX high-speed imaging
- Fully automatic powder handling and recycling
- 3D Sprint® software included
Larger Build Volume Capacity
Faster build times than other SLS printers in its price point, with high-performance nesting and high-density capability that deliver 25% more usable build volume capacity.
Lower Total Cost of Operations
Automated production tools, high throughput, 95% material efficiency and repeatability — combined with a competitive purchase price — deliver 20% lower total cost of operations versus similar printers.
Limitless Possibilities with Tool-Less Manufacturing
Eliminate Tooling
Direct production from a CAD file removes the cost and time of tooling and fixtures.
Streamline Workflow
Skip extensive programming and fixturing, freeing up machinists and cutting part counts.
Increase Agility
No tooling means lower overhead and greater economies of scope.
Design for Function
Print complete assemblies as one part — improving function, reducing cost and increasing reliability.
Fully Automatic Powder Handling
The MQC system automatically blends, recycles and delivers powder to the printer, with continuous sifting and filtering and maintenance-free material transport. Hands-free 7.5 kg material bottles keep operators away from loose powder.
- Single or dual MQC configurations, serving one or two printers
- Automatic blending, recycling and delivery of powder
- Continuous sifting and filtering
- Closed material system for consistent quality and less waste
