Additive Manufacturing Support Material Removal

Additive manufacturing surface finishing has reached a new level with the VCN process. All other additive manufacturing post-processing support removal systems deliver fluids to remove 3D printing resins from the outside of a part, then wait for swirling fluid, ultrasonics, dunk-and-drain, or spray to move the fluid from the part. Tight areas, tortuous paths, dead-end spaces, and deep internal locations all prevent mechanical external mechanisms from removing hidden resins that either need hours or days to dissolve and diffuse from the part, or that are never removed and can cause part failure. Vacuum ensures that all areas are reached by preventing trapped air from isolating resin from the solution, and the VCN process continuously removes resin and replenishes the spent solution for rapid surface cleaning. The fast process prevents long-term exposure of parts to harmful solutions and keeps your parts within the intended high tolerance.

The video shows the removal of resin from 3D-printed parts. The unit in the field removes excess resin with the part still on the build plate. The process is done in 2 minutes to prevent the solvent from dissolving the parts’ structure.
