The plastics used in Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) have a higher thermal expansion when compared with other materials. Therefore, it is important to know how the dimensions of an SLS part change at different temperatures during the build and during use. The higher the thermal expansion coefficient, the more prone are the parts to warpage or curling and the build-up of residual stresses. Learn more!
Das geforderte mechanische und dielektrische Eigenschaftsprofil von Elastomerwerkstoffen wird durch die Auswahl des geeigneten Polymers, Füllstoffs und der Additive für den Anwendungsbereich erreicht. Während ihrer Lebensdauer unterliegen elastomere Werkstoffe in Reifen-, Dichtungs- und Automobilanwendungen einer ständigen Veränderung. Lesen Sie mehr über die Möglichkeit zur Überwachung der mechanischen Eigenschaften von Elastomerwerkstoffe während der Anwendung.
If the extraordinary events of 2020 have taught us anything, it is that collaboration and teamwork are the best foundation for success. That is why we, NETZSCH Analyzing & Testing, and the NETZSCH Group, are pleased to be stepping up our cooperation with Malvern Panalytical.

We took your questions related to common 3D printing issues and categorized them into what we call 3D printing myths – common concerns and sometimes misconceptions of this industry. Today, Dr. Natalie Rudolph explains how analytical devices can detect and identify the volatiles in such fumes released during 3D printing and gives important tips on what to pay attention to when printing with a 3D printer at home.
This year, NETZSCH will again participate in various round robin tests. Learn more about why round robin tests can be interesting for you and how you can participate in the round robin tests of the Kunststoff-Institut Lüdenscheid in Germany.
NETZSCH nimmt in diesem Jahr wieder an verschiedenen Ringversuchen mit Kunststofffokus teil. Erfahren Sie mehr darüber, warum Ringversuche auch für Sie interessant sein können und wie Sie an den Ringversuchen des Kunststoff-Institut Lüdenscheid teilnehmen können.
Additive Manufacturing (AM) encompasses a variety of technologies suitable for producing components from liquid, solid or powder feedstocks. Selective Laser Melting (SLM), a powder-bed fusion process, has become a commonly used AM process for rapid prototyping and component manufacturing using metals, alloys and, to a lesser extent, ceramics. Learn more about SLM, suitable materials and how to optimize input parameters for improved product quality using Thermal Analysis.
