Solukon launches software for intelligent depowdering of 3D printed parts
Summary
To remove excess powder from complex internal structures, SPR-Pathfinder uses the build job’s CAD file to calculate the ideal motion sequence in the Solukon system. The algorithm-based SPR-Pathfinder calculates the ideal motion sequence for the most complex geometries, finding the best path to allow the powder to flow out of the part completely. “It is very important to us that the widest possible customer base can benefit from our software from the moment it hits the market,” stated Andreas Hartmann, CEO and CTO at Solukon. The AM team in Berlin manufactures hot gas parts in series using AM and has been employing a Solukon SFM-AT800-S for its depowdering needs for the past two and a half years. “With SPR-Pathfinder, we can depowder in series without any manual programming,” stated Julius Schurb, Project Leader for IDEA at Siemens Energy.
