What will happen if the laser power in an SLS machine is set too low during printing?
medium📝 Analysis Q4 of 15
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand laser power role in SLS
The laser must provide enough energy to fuse powder particles.Step 2: Analyze low power effect
If power is too low, particles won't fuse, causing weak or incomplete parts.Final Answer:
Powder particles will not fuse properly -> Option CQuick Check:
Low laser power = Poor fusion [OK]
Quick Trick: Low laser power means weak fusion in SLS [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Assuming overheating occurs
- Thinking powder melts fully
- Confusing cutting with sintering
