Many manufacturers reuse leftover powder to maximize efficiency and control costs. Powder has a tendency to oxidize during each build cycle, negatively impacting part quality. In addition, oxidation can occur while powder is in storage and during sieving and certain powders can combust or explode when dispersed in air.
Gases are critical to efficiently produce high quality industrial 3D printed parts.
Rene Cooper, Additive Manufacturing Market Manager
“Gases are critical to efficiently produce high quality industrial 3D printed parts. Airgas can help you create an optimum environment during powder production, 3D printing, and post processing with the right gas in the best gas supply mode.
