PostProcess Technologies

PostProcess® continues to advance additive manufacturing support removal with the new DEMI X 520 for Resin Removal™. As the industry’s only full-stack solution, it extends the PostProcess Submersed Vortex Cavitation™ portfolio by introducing our new Axial Flow Technology™ combined with our game-changing chemistry and customized AUTOMAT3D® software.

Customized Software Controls

Resin removal software and features guide users through processing requirements, including time, temperature, and agitation for their particular application. These tailored experiences create a seamless, efficient, and error-free operation.

Hardware Innovation and Fixtures Ensure Optimal Resin Removal & Safety

The DEMI X 520 for Resin Removal offers new hardware features to deliver unparalleled consistency.

• Automated parts lift protects parts from over-exposure to chemistry and contributes to operator safety.
• Specific resin removal fixtures ensure optimal part processing regardless of processing parts directly on the build platform or batch processing off-platform.
• Axial Flow Technology ensures uniform chemistry exposure to finish parts.

Additive-Formulated Chemistry for Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) Free Processing

The DEMI X 520 for Resin Removal Solution features a combination of PLM-403-SUB detergent used in the hardware, followed by a rinse step in a sample of AUX-400-RINSE with provided sample container.

• Enhances safety for employees thanks to higher flashpoints vs IPA (53°F / 11°C):
  • PLM-403-SUB Flashpoint: 220°F / 104.4°C
  • AUX-400-RINSE Flashpoint: 102°F / 38.8°C
• Biocompatible PLM-403-SUB detergent ensures effective resin removal, with most cycles completed in >10 minutes.
• AUX-400-RINSE as a final rinse step eliminates the need to use IPA in your resin removal workflow.

PostProcess’ proprietary Volume Velocity Dispersion (VVD) technology, a series of high volume and flow jet streams spraying bidirectionally coupled with a perpendicular linear motion for mechanically assisted support removal, ensures fast cycle times with virtually no damaged parts. Because of the high-volume (200 GPM), low-pressure system (35 PSI), parts feel a powerful yet gentle, all-encompassing flow of detergent that also keeps the part in place. Once applied, the constant force felt by the part reduces the risk of damaging parts. One result of the bi-directional jetting action is the part remains stationary and avoids any potential collisions that a circulation tank may subject parts to damage.

By combining our proprietary AUTOMAT3D® software program with precisely controlled energy and exclusive additive formulated detergents, the BASE delivers consistent, hands-free support removal for 3D printed parts. Our solution accelerates your operations with features like intelligent cycle time programming, customizable settings, one-touch repeatability with recipe storage, and pre-programmed preventative maintenance schedules.
