Modeling in the Course of Selective Laser Sintering for Coated Sand

Numerical simulation model for the thermal process of selective laser sintering of powders was presented to predict the sintered width and depth in selective laser sintering. The factors of the material thermal physical properties varying with the temperature and the un-uniformed distribution of laser intensity across the beam diameter had been taken into account in the computation model. The process of coated sand laser sintering was formulated by the method of finite element. The results show that the predicted sintered width and depth accord with the measured value and the model can be used to estimate the sintered area in selective laser sintering.
