Selective laser sintering (SLS), developed and patented at the University of Texas at Austin in the mid‐1980s, is an additive manufacturing technology used to produce three‐dimensional physical objects, layer by layer, from computer‐aided design models. Lasers are generally classified into four different types based on the physical nature of the active medium used: solid‐state lasers, gas lasers, semiconductor lasers, and liquid dye lasers. SLS process can be further divided into two different mechanisms or approaches termed indirect and direct SLS. In direct SLS mechanism, a metallic or ceramic powder is sintered without adding any polymeric binder. SLS parameters can be classifiedaccording to geometric parameters, laser parameters, or material properties. Hatch spacing, scanning strategy, and layer thickness are considered typical geometricparameters. Laser parameters can be divided into scanning speed, laser power, and beam size. Laser parameters can also include pulse parameters such as pulse length and the number of pulses pertime unit.
