TPU
As a strong, wear-resistant and elastic material, SLS TPU opens up new application opportunities. Thanks to its wide processing window and the complete recyclability of the powder cake, it is a natural choice for series production. Elastic parts made of this material have both high strength and high wear resistance, and are widely used in many fields such as footwear, sports equipment, pipes, seals, and prosthetics.
