AM Solutions: Automated Powder Supply in Polymer 3D Printing

Share:

AM Solutions adds the "Powder Management System" (PMS) and the "Direct Feeding System" (DFS) to its systems for powder handling in SLS-3D printing. Both solutions automate the recirculation of processed polymer powder into the printing process, thus supplementing the existing "D1" systems for unpacking and "F1" for screening, mixing and conditioning the powder.

The "DFS" is designed to supply a single EOS SLS printer. The powder is transported immediately from a "polybox" to the pressure system via a permanently installed pipeline. The maximum transport distance is up to 15 meters.

The "PMS" can supply up to four EOS SLS printers. Two "polyboxes", each with a useful volume of 180 liters, enable a continuous supply of material. If one container is empty, the system automatically switches to the second. atmosphere recirculation and filter methodology also minimize dust contamination.

The “PMS” has already been deployed at EOS under production conditions. According to AM Solutions, the "DFS" has been running to around ten months together with an EOS "P3 Next" in internal production.

Both systems are commercially available and will be showcased at Formnext 2026.
