3D printer OEMWematter已经推出了最新的3D打印硬件，这是一种构建室内控制设备，旨在与该公司之前发布重力2021 3D打印机。
Dubbed Atmosphere, the device communicates with Gravity’s software to create a more stable thermal environment for SLS 3D printing to take place. The handy add-on reportedly results in increased part densities, improved surface finishes, and a healthy mechanical performance boost.
罗伯特•Kniola Wematter的创始人和CEO,解释了ns, “Some manufacturers solve the climate aspect with complicated infrastructure, others solve it with a gas tube, which entails a great safety risk. We have a stand-alone system that is safe for the user from a work environment point of view. It will be a safer alternative than, for example, just connecting a nitrogen generator.”
只需插入并播放
是一个模块化的即插即用设备,用户can get Atmosphere up and running by plugging it into a standard wall outlet and connecting it to a Gravity 3D printer. In a bid to ensure user-friendliness and product safety, Wematter has crafted the device so it does not require any additional ventilation or air compression equipment. Atmosphere’s frame measures 770 x 830 x 410mm and weighs 80kg in total.
它通过调节房间中已经发现的空气而起作用，并且不需要其他任何消耗物质即可运行。通过连接到重力深空软件在每个打印作业的开始时，气氛都会自动启动，并在没有用户输入的情况下实现其目的。
Kniola adds, “It is very fun to see, after several years of development, the results of our hard work and that the response from the market is so positive. Atmosphere will be another part of making our ecosystem scalable. Our customers will be able to modularly upgrade their equipment with the features that suit the company’s operations.”
气氛的好处
通过产生最小的热变化，气氛使用户能够增加其零件密度，而不会产生多组分的风险，从而构成融合。结果，印刷零件更耐用，粉末床中剩余的未插入材料的磨损较少，这意味着可以使用公司的惯性粉收集装置进行回收，并在不牺牲机械性能的情况下重复使用。当用白色聚合物粉打印时，由于缺乏变色，这也会导致零件。
In figures, this means a strain at break improvement of 70% when employing the help of Atmosphere with recycled powders. The company states that its latest piece of hardware is, therefore, an “important component in Wematter’s work for sustainable manufacturing”, as it serves to reduce the amount of raw powder consumed while promoting cost-effective production. Atmosphere will be available from spring of 2021 as an optional add-on for the Gravity 2021 3D printer.
3D打印机制造商也闯入办公室友好的SLS市场formlabs最近推出了它的第一个powder bed fusion 3D printer, the Fuse 1。Marketed as the world’s first benchtop industrial SLS machine, the system is aimed at engineers, designers, and manufacturers looking for high-quality functional prototyping and end-use production at a fraction of the cost of traditional SLS.
Elsewhere, atETH Zurich，最近使用了十名学生Sintratec的Worktop SLS技术设计和制造功能齐全电摩托车的原型。The project took just one year from concept to assembly and was reportedly motivated by environmental sustainability.
