Overview
The Shop System™ introduces high quality binder jetting to an entirely new market of machine shops, which can now cost effectively print small end-use metal parts with unparalleled speed and productivity.
Unparalleled productivity
The Shop System™ is designed to effortlessly amplify your shop’s output. Dramatically increase your capacity without additional headcount or labor hours.
Superior print quality
Produce fully dense, customer-ready parts with superior surface finish and resolution than laser-based systems.
Easy to use & operate
Designed with the modern machine shop in mind. Achieve superior parts than laser-based systems at a fraction of the cost.
During each layer, the printer spreads metal powder across the build bed, and precisely jets a binding agent to bond loose powder and define part geometry. Layer by layer, metal powder and binder is deposited until the entire build volume is packed with bound parts and surrounding loose powder.
Depowder
Once an entire build is complete, the build box is removed and placed in a powder station for bulk and fine depowdering—with the help of a hand-held air pick. All loose powders are removed from the parts and recovered via a built-in powder recycling system with powder sieving.
Sinter
Depowdered parts are placed onto trays in a shop-safe, high-throughput furnace for batch sintering. With an external gas hookup, temperatures reaching 1400ºC, and the ability to process high-strength binders, the Shop System™ furnace is able to deliver quality and reliable sintering in a shop-friendly format.
Materials
The system is compatible with powders from traditional powder metallurgy processes including stainless steels, tool steels, and super alloys. Get started quickly with a turnkey, end-to-end solution. Shop System features Desktop Metal™ engineered powders and processing parameters, optimized to deliver exceptional part quality, and ensure part-to-part repeatability.
