New Additive Manufacturing Equipment
Automatically Transfers Metal Powders for 3D Printing,
Screens and Blends Virgin Material with Used – Booth #1108
Volkmann PowTReX Advanced Recovers Used Metal Powder for Reuse
Bristol, PA: 3D printing equipment manufacturer Volkmann USA, Bristol, PA (https://www.volkmannusa.com), has introduced the PowTReX Advanced. Developed to promote and streamline the reuse of invaluable metal powders, the new PowTReX Advanced enables 3D printing companies to automatically transfer virgin metal powders from containers, extract used powder from 3D printers, screen to a desired particle size, and blend the used powder with virgin material in an adjustable ratio for reuse. The contained system allows material previously discarded as waste to be reused as viable metal powder for direct savings on material costs while safeguarding workers from potentially toxic exposure and protecting the material from contamination.
The latest in the company's PowTReX series of metal powder transfer and recovery systems, the PowTReX Advanced expands on the Standard PowTReX unit, which pioneered the automated transfer and recovery of metal powders for 3D printing, and the PowTReXi, which creates a contained, inert gas environment for conditioning the powder for printing. The self-contained metal powder handling systems are proven in conveying and recovering aluminum, stainless steel, titanium, copper, and other reactive and non-reactive metals, with screening throughputs ranging from 300 – 500 kg/hr.
The Standard PowTReX system is to be shown at Volkmann's booth #1108 at Rapid + tct booth from May 17 – 19, 2022 in Detroit, Michigan. Presentations may be scheduled at the booth in advance by calling 609.265.0101.
