To determine scan velocity (in./sec.) on an SLS Sinterstation 2000, you can use the following formula:
scan velocity = SS / (5461.25 x 270 x 10-6) = SS x .678
where:
SS = scan size (your GUI setting)
5461.25 = resolution (scanner units per inch)
270 x 10-6 = Step Period (fixed at 270 (s)
Hope this helps.

Hi all
Does anyone know how I can find the scan speed for the laser
in the sls machine? Is it material dependent? Is this value
specified in the software, or must I stand by the machine and measure
it?
Thanks
Rosemary Gault
