Why Optonics?
Affordable solution
To go from prototyping to production, traditional manufacturing options like injection molding are too costly, and professional SLS machines are priced out of reach for small businesses, universities, and hobbyists. Optonics bridges this gap with an affordable SLS solution, enabling durable and precise low-volume manufacturing at a fraction of the cost.
Built-in annealing chamber
We incorporated an annealing chamber into our printer inspired by recent research which shows that annealing significantly enhances the mechanical properties of SLS-printed parts. By integrating this process, we deliver up to 59% higher tensile strength, 52% smoother surfaces, 11% decreased hardness, and 50% reduced wear rates - ensuring parts that are both precise and built to last.
