What is the main material state used in Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) to build objects?
ALiquid resin
BPowder
CSolid sheets
DMetal wire
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand SLS material usage

    SLS uses a laser to fuse powdered material layer by layer.
  2. Step 2: Identify the correct material state

    The process starts with powder spread on a bed, not liquid or solid sheets.
  3. Final Answer:

    Powder -> Option B
  4. Quick Check:

    Material state in SLS = Powder [OK]
Quick Trick: Remember SLS fuses powder, not liquid or solid sheets [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES
  • Confusing SLS with resin-based 3D printing
  • Thinking it uses solid sheets like laminated methods
  • Assuming metal wire is used directly
