AM Solutions Shares Early Results of EOS Partnership

The two companies are combining their expertise and have been developing solutions to automate post-processing. 

EOS and AM Solutions entered into a partnership with a goal to optimize the process chain in selective laser sintering printing.

EOS and AM Solutions, a company invested in industrial post-processing solutions have a common goal: to advance the additive manufacturing process chain in the selective laser sintering sector. To achieve this, the two companies are combining their expertise and have been developing solutions to automate post-processing. 

“We have been working together intensively over the past year and have already made great progress,” explains David Soldan, Head of AM Solutions - 3D post processing technology. He is referring to two machine concepts that are being developed specifically, but not exclusively, for the new generation of EOS P3 NEXT polymer printers.

Two innovative post-processing solutions for greater efficiency

In addition to an unpacking solution that automatically, economically and reproducibly depowders parts and minimizes powder contact for the operator, an innovative 2-in-1 solution will be available that screens and mixes the powder. This system combines both process steps in a single machine to save space and costs. It employs a unique process to create a high-quality mixture of used and new powder. The mixing ratio can be tailored to specific needs, and it is capable of producing small batches. The first printing results from EOS have been very promising.

Both companies express their satisfaction with the current project status. “The collaboration with EOS is extremely constructive and based on partnership. In our view, the two machine solutions will prove to be real game changers,” says David Soldan. Fabian Krauß, Head of Product Management Polymer Solutions at EOS adds: “AM Solutions' technology is a perfect complement to the EOS P3 NEXT. As a result of this collaboration, our customers will have an end-to-end production solution that streamlines their production workflow and allows them to grow at their own pace.”

Debut at this year's Formnext

The current development status and further information will be presented to interested trade visitors for the first time at Formnext 2024 at the AM Solutions booth in Hall 11.1, booth E41. Directly across at booth D41, EOS will present the associated printer solution for the first time in the form of the new EOS P3 NEXT system.
