A laser beam, which will be deflected by a galvo scanner, melts the poweder locally and creates after cooling down a layer of hard material. Afterwards the baseplate drops by the amount of the layer and powder will be distributed again.

The mode of operation is very similar \u2013 while for SLM metallic powder and on SLS plastic powder is being used.
