VoxelMatters AM Post-Processing Focus 2024 eBook | VoxelMatters

Post-processing. The last—but certainly not least—stage of additive manufacturing. Post-processing is often seen as one of the final hurdles to making additive technologies truly scalable and industrially viable. However, incredible advances have been made in recent years to further automate various post-processing steps, which have contributed to minimizing the labor involved in finishing prints, as well as reducing the time and costs of post-processing. 

In this AM Focus eBook, we are honing in on the latest trends and advancements in post-processing for metal additive manufacturing in particular. We’ll start by highlighting the companies at the cutting-edge of metal post-processing technologies, such as those with solutions for powder and support removal, sintering, quality control and more. From there, we’re spotlighting Solukon’s latest powder removal solution which was engineered to meet the growing demand for medium-sized metal parts. The publication also includes a detailed look at the innovative FAST/SPS spark plasma sintering technology, which is transforming the consolidation of ceramic and metallic powders, and exclusive insights into a new research initiative out of NC State that is increasing the automation and efficiency of post-processing machining and measurement for metal prints.
