A developer of automated post-printing solutions for additive manufacturing (AM),
PostProcess Technologies recently demonstrated the effectiveness of its DEMI 4100 automated resin-removal system when paired with a
Stratasys Neo800+ stereolithography (SLA) 3-D printer, with global customers in automotive, industrial, and service bureaus reporting ‘measurable improvements in throughput, consistency, and safety’ and the automated removal of resin in under 10min.
Sean Schoonmaker, director of operations at
Stratasys Direct Manufacturing, said: “We are leveraging the PostProcess DEMI 4100 automated cleaning system alongside the Neo800+ printer to streamline our SLA post-printing workflow. The ability to precisely control key parameters such as time, temperature, and agitation ensures consistent, repeatable results while minimising exposure to harsh chemicals. The DEMI 4100 has also significantly enhanced the cleanliness and safety of our production environment.”
Optimising AM workflowAdam Pawloski, Stratasys’ vice president of manufacturing solutions, said: “The Neo800+ printer delivers high-precision SLA printing for superior part quality and production efficiency; and by integrating the DEMI 4100 into the recommended post-processing step, customers can optimise their AM workflow to new levels of speed, safety, and sustainability.
“Stratasys customers demand reliability and efficiency throughout the additive workflow. By recommending the PostProcess DEMI 4100 solution as part of the AM workflow, our Neo series customers are streamlining their end-to-end solution.”
Dean VonBank, PostProcess Technologies’ ‘chief experience officer’, added: “The combination of the Neo800+ printer and our DEMI 4100 system delivers a compelling end-to-end workflow for SLA users, bringing proven efficiency and safety to their process. The DEMI 4100 unlocks a scalable, safe, and sustainable solution that complements the precision and throughput of the Stratasys Neo800+.”
