Additive Manufacturing Overview

Product catalog summary
Overview of Additive Manufacturing: Metal Solid & Porous 3D Printing
Key Advantages: The document highlights the benefits of 3D printing (3DP) in creating parts with uniform flow due to the lack of density gradients. It allows for consistent pore size distribution and the ability to print complex geometries that are impractical with conventional methods. This includes the capability to print both solid and porous media in one part, avoiding secondary operations like welding and sinter-bonding.
Build Features & Tolerances - Metal: The build volume for metal parts is specified as 9.7” x 9.7” x 11.0”. Materials include 316L Stainless Steel, Titanium, and other alloys. The resolution for solid features is +/- 0.01”, and for porous features, it is +/- 0.02”. Porosity ranges from 1 to over 100 microns, with density consistency of +/- 0.07-0.1 g/cc.
Flow-DP Performance: 3DP media offers higher flow due to the absence of density gradients, which is beneficial for integrated filter hardware and complex porous shapes.
Build Features & Tolerances - Polymer: For polymers, the build volume varies from prototypes (15.7” x 11.8” x 11.8”) to production (18.0” x 18.0” x 32.0”). Materials include PEEK, PEKK, PEI, Nylon, ABS, and Polyethylene. Porosity is 100 microns and larger, with various pore shapes available. Surface finish ranges from 200 to 600 Ra µin as printed.
Early Stage Developments: The document mentions developments in polymers and ceramics, including alumina flow control components.
About Us: The company has a 60-year track record, serving demanding customers like NASA and Medtronic. It boasts the largest installed base of porous metal filters and fluid controls globally, with a wide selection of metal alloys for extreme conditions.
Application Expertise: The company offers expertise in gas and liquid filtration, flow control, mixing, heat exchange, and more, with applications spanning integrated components to large-scale process systems.
