The simple and affordable way to dye SLS parts. The 3DChimera team originally built this system for in-house use to meet the demands of our service customers who needed parts dyed black. Due to unprecedented demand, we have refined the system to offer to anyone looking to dye SLS parts quickly and easily.
One Touch Operation
The 3DC SLS Dye Kit come pre-programmed with the ideal temperature, flow rate and time to dye PA12 parts. After the initial setup, you simply drop in your parts, hit start and walk away...the system does the rest! When the cycle is complete, you remove your parts and place on the drying rack.
For parts large and small!
The internal tank dimensions are 11.5 x 19.5 x 6in for some huge SLS parts! For smaller parts, the stainless steel basket works great with a diameter of 6.3in and a height of 5.3in.
How does it work?
The SLS dye mix is combined with water and heated to a precise temperature, which helps to relax the polymer strands of nylon to permanently absorb the dye. After the process is complete, parts are left to dry and the dye remains in polymer.
