SINTRATEC S2
The compact and expandable SLS system
With Sintratec S2, the new scalable compact system, you can turn your ideas into reality within a short period of time, layer by layer, at high speed. The modular SLS production system can be expanded as needed, and adapts perfectly to your needs. Harness previously unimagined potential in professional prototyping and optimize your applications.
The processes of material preparation, printing and depowdering are integrated in a closed and semi-automatic system, which is new and unique in the field of selective laser sintering.
MODULARLY DESIGNED AND SELF-CONTAINED
The Sintratec S2, the affordable all-in-one solution, allows you to minimize downtimes and beneft from cost-effective operation. You can carry out a material change within a short period of time and tedious cleaning processes are a thing of the past.
The selective laser sintering system consists of the Laser Sintering Station (LSS), the Material Core Unit (MCU) and the Material Handling Station (MHS). Together these modules make up a uniquely self-contained process system for additive manufacturing.
Once high-quality SLS printing in the Sintering Station is completed, the printed objects are then conveniently and cleanly depowdered in the Handling Station. The ingenious Material Core Unit allows you to easily switch from one print material to another and reduce downtimes. Thanks to the modular system design you can expand your SLS machinery as needed.
SINTRATEC S2 LASER SINTERING STATION (LSS)
The Sintratec Laser Sintering Station’s cylindrical printing volume means you get consistent and homogeneous printing results. You can follow your print job live at any time and evaluate the surface of the individual printed layers in real time with the integrated high resolution camera. The precise laser scanning system enables improved repeat accuracy and fast printing processes. The sophisticated heating system gives your SLS parts a high-quality surface finish.

SINTRATEC S2 MATERIAL HANDLING STATION (MHS)
You no longer need additional equipment to reprocess used print material into ready-for-printing material – and it’s all thanks to the efficient screening and mixing function in the Sintratec Material Handling Station. The freely accessible work area with an air filtration system gives you a clear view of the object to be depowdered and allows for a clean working environment.
- No additional tools needed to screen the print material
- High visibility when depowdering the parts
- Touchscreen-based operation

SINTRATEC S2 MATERIAL CORE UNIT (MCU)
The mobile Sintratec Material Core Units with an integrated powder mixing function ensure convenient powder handling. Several units allow you to increase the material variety and reduce downtimes.
- High level of process reliability
- Integrated multi-zone heating for build cylinders
- Two internal powder tanks for quick layer change
- Integrated re-coating system (coordinated to powder)
