In the evolving landscape of 3D printing, innovation is not only about perfecting end products but also enhancing the processes that support production. Xioneer, a leader in the manufacturing of soluble support materials for FFF/FDM 3D printing, is proud to announce a partnership with Polymaker, a renowned supplier of high-performance model materials. Together, we are working to revolutionize support removal solutions with our upcoming product series, the Typhoon.
Introducing the Typhoon Series: Next-Gen Support Removal Devices
Our new Typhoon series represents a leap forward in support removal technology. The Typhoon 30 and Typhoon 70 devices are engineered to streamline and enhance the support removal process, providing a fast, efficient, and reliable solution that meets the needs of modern 3D printing professionals.
A standout feature of these devices is their advanced, magnetic-driven impeller, designed to maximize agitation and ensure effective removal of soluble supports. To perfect this component, we explored countless geometric configurations, ultimately relying on the precision and flexibility of 3D printing to find the optimal design.
3D Printing and Material Selection: The Role of Polymaker's PPS-CF
When choosing the right material for our impeller, we needed something robust enough to endure exposure to heat, water, and chemicals without compromising durability or efficiency. Enter Polymaker's PPS-CF—a material that offers the perfect blend of strength and resistance. Polymaker’s high-performance PPS-CF material (a polyphenylene sulfide carbon fiber blend) has proven to be an ideal solution, allowing us to print highly precise, durable, and heat-resistant impellers that can withstand the demanding conditions inside our Typhoon machines. Together with our VXL 150 soluble support material, it is possible to print PPS-CF directly crystalline without the need for annealing, making it the perfect high-temperature combination.
The Power of Collaboration
This collaboration exemplifies how partnerships in the 3D printing industry can drive groundbreaking results. With Polymaker’s expertise in high-quality materials and Xioneer’s focus on advanced support solutions, we’re creating tools that make 3D printing smoother and more efficient than ever.
Moving Forward
The Typhoon series is set to redefine support removal. As we push forward with this development, we want to extend our thanks to Polymaker for their invaluable role in helping us realize our vision. With Polymaker’s advanced materials and our next-generation designs, we’re committed to setting a new standard for reliability and performance in the 3D printing industry.
Stay tuned for more updates as we bring the Typhoon series closer to launch. At Xioneer, we’re excited to keep pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in 3D printing!
