Manufacturing Company Introduces 100% Reused Powder for 3-D Printing

An industry leader in 3-D printing has created a 100% reused powder. The process, known as Bluesint PA 12, allows selective laser sintering waste (up to 70%) to be recovered so that it can be reused to print new parts. One of the main uses of this process will be prototype printing. The company has already undergone extensive beta testing, with one customer (a local non-profit) using the technology to help produce community shelters. As 3-D printing becomes more popular, the company believes manufacturers will be looking to reduce their environmental footprint.
