Stratasys is collaborating with AM Solutions, a brand of the Rösler Group, to launch Stratasys PowderEase TI, a 3-in-1 post-processing solution for the Stratasys H350 SAF powder-bed printer. The new post-processing system drives towards important customer milestones, including shorter time to finished parts, more efficient powder use, and the ability to handle the outcome of multiple printers at one time with a single T1 system. Manufacturing of the PowderEase T1 will take place at the German location of AM Solutions.

PowderEase T1 combines multiple post-processing steps into a single, streamlined unit, simplifying workflows, reducing operational costs and improving overall productivity for users. Advantages include: 3-in-1 functionality (automated powder breakout, retrieval and dosing); scalable efficiency (a single system can serve up to six H350 printers); time savings (up to 50 minutes of time savings per build compared with manual processes); powder utilisation (maximises powder retrieval and efficiency); and consistent and ready to use parts with each build.

“Working with AM Solutions, we’re poised to deliver significant advancements that will benefit our customers and simplify work routines on the production floor,” says Birk Ploennigs, director of SAF product management at Stratasys. “This solution will allow customers to use Selective Absorption Fusion technology for the manufacture of parts, taking production efficiency to a new level.”

David Soldan, head of AM Solutions, adds: “The key focus of the partnership between Stratasys and AM Solutions is the delivery of maximum value and to establish additive manufacturing as a primary production technology. Automated post-processing, which ensures cost-effective, high-quality, consistent results, is crucial to this objective.”
