PROCESSING OPTIONS Additive Manufacturing Many companies are producing 3D printed parts from high-performance polymers for specialized aerospace, medical and industrial applications. These materials can be 3D printed using selective laser sintering (SLS) and fused filament fabrication (FFF).

PolyOne also will present an update to the unique 3D-MID (three dimensional molded interconnect device) manufacturing technology it highlighted at its stand during Fakuma 2014. By collaborating, PolyOne and selected developers have succeeded in establishing a time- and cost-saving means to produce the 3D-MIDs serving as heat sinks in LED lighting, which could prove an alternative to the complex printed circuit boards now fairly ubiquitous in these applications.
