Abstract Electrically conductive channels were created using conductive carbon cement (CCC) by a simple non-contact continuous deposition method on sintered DuraForm (TM) Polyamide parts. The deposition system consisted of a drive circuit, a Micro Inert Solenoid Valve (MIV), a nozzle head and two liquid material reservoirs. Effect of CCC/solvent ratio, speed of deposition head and sintering condition of the Polyamide base material on the electrical properties of the conductive channels were investigated. The paper will then go on to discuss how these results relate to potential applications of Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) components with electrical property. Keywords: SLS; electrically conductive channels; non-contact deposition (Auth abstract) [References: 8] XX
