3D Printer Selective Laser Sintering EOS Formiga P100

3D Printer Selective Laser Sintering EOS Formiga P100:
Performance:
    - minimum feature width: 500 microns
    - laser beam positioning accuracy: 50 microns
    - maximum build volume: 200 mm x 250 mm x 330 mm
    - minimum layer thickness: 100 microns
    - laser beam scanning beam: maximum 5 m/s
    - vertical build speed: minimum 10 mm / hour

The 3D Printer based on selective laser sintering is placed in a specially designed and arranged room. It is used for production of different structures, at normal and at mili-scale.
