Fuse Sift
The Formlabs Fuse Sift is a safe, efficient powder recovery system for the Fuse 1 or Fuse 1+ SLS 3D printers.
This all-in-one station combines part extraction, powder recovery, storage, and mixing in a single free-standing device. Fuse Sift enables the ability to produce functional parts at an industry leading 30% powder refresh rate, with unlimited cycles. This means you can print with up to 70% recycled powder.
Fuse Sift will dispense and mix used and new powder automatically so you can reduce waste and control your powder supply.
Features
|
Compact, enclosed system. A negative air pressure system keeps powder inside while enabling open access and easy clean up
|
|
|
Low waste. 30% material refresh rate means you can print with up to 70% recycled powder. Fuse Sift’s sieve filters out particles to be remixed with new powder and reused in future prints
|
|
|
Automatic powder mixing. Fuse Sift will dispense and mix used and new powder automatically so you can reduce waste and control your powder supply
|
|
|
Nonstop printing. Reduce downtime by transferring modular build chambers and powder cartridges between the Fuse 1 and Fuse Sift for a nonstop, cyclical workflow.
