Abstract

During the selective laser sintering process, the sintering behavior between powders is mainly affected by thermal effect. There are a large number of process parameters influencing the variation of temperature and molten pool, of which the laser density and scanning speed play a crucial role in determining the performance of the parts. In this paper, the effects of laser density and scanning speed on the precision and strength of polyamide 6 selective laser sintering parts were systematically investigated. The results show that with the increase of energy density, the positive dimensional deviation of the parts in three directions increases gradually, and the tensile strength increases at beginning and then decreases. When the laser power and scanning speed were changed, the tensile strength of the parts varied between 5.62 MPa and 58.74 MPa.
