e–MELT® Benefit#3 ProHeat® preheating for fine and smoke-sensitive powders
e–MELT® benefit #3, Fine and smoke-sensitive powders can be used, thanks to patented ProHeat® preheating technology.
Freemelt introduces a new era in Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion (E-PBF) with its patented preheating technology, ProHeat® . This innovation allows for charge-free heating of the powder bed, effectively preventing smoke during the build process, and enabling the use of powders smaller than 45 micrometers, thus bridging the gap between E-PBF and Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF).
By utilizing the ProHeat® technology, we also eliminate the need for expensive high‐purity gases such as helium or argon.
Watch this video to see ProHeat® preheating in action, captured in the complete E-PBF layer sequence, including recoating, preheating, and melting.
