e–MELT® Benefit #5, Powder feeding from below
Freemelt’s unique machine design features a “push-feed” powder delivery system, where the powder is fed to the recoater from below. This smart setup enables the use of a wider range of powder types, including non-spherical powders, and not just traditional spherical ones.
The result? Greater flexibility, access to more cost-efficient powders, and expanded supply chain options.
Watch the video below to experience Freemelt’s innovative powder-feeding mechanism.
