Features

Fuse Blast is your go-to solution for efficiently post-processing SLS 3D-printed parts. This user-friendly, automated cleaning and polishing system seamlessly integrates into the Fuse Series ecosystem, making it a valuable addition to your workflow.

 

One of the standout features of Fuse Blast is its ability to clean an entire build chamber of printed parts in just 30 minutes, significantly reducing labour time and cost. This time-saving aspect allows for more productive post-processing activities and a quicker turnaround for your projects.

 

For those seeking an even higher level of finish quality, the optional Polishing System provides a smooth, semi-gloss, and dye-ready surface finish. This added feature ensures that your results are consistently professional and ready for the next steps in your project.

 

Fuse Blast simplifies and accelerates the post-processing of SLS 3D-printed parts, making it an efficient and cost-effective choice for professionals looking to streamline their operations.

 

Why Choose Fuse Blast?

 

Finished Parts in 15 Minutes
Automated routines can post-process an entire build chamber in as little as 15 minutes. Passive filtering helps reduce media saturation and extend media lifespan, cutting overhead costs.

Consistent Results
Pre-programmed settings ensure consistent results, while manual mode lets you adjust to specific part requirements.

Professional Quality
Enjoy clean-to-the-touch parts with an in-line ionizer that prevents dust and media from re-settling. The Fuse Blast Polishing System creates smooth, semi-gloss, scuff-resistant, and dye-ready finishes for your SLS prints.

Streamlined Post-Processing
Fuse Blast integrates smoothly with the Fuse ecosystem, automating post-processing to reduce labor time by 80%.

 

 

 

Can I post-process my parts with the Fuse Blast only, without the Fuse Sift?

Fuse Blast simplifies part cleaning, even without prior depowdering, reducing Fuse Sift time to 5-10 minutes. While not mandatory, Fuse Sift plays a crucial role in the Fuse ecosystem for powder management. To optimize workflow, consider using Fuse Sift and Fuse Blast together for efficient powder management and part cleaning. Low-volume users can opt for the Fuse Depowdering Kit before media blasting.

 

How much labour is involved in operating a Fuse Blast?

Fuse Blast streamlines part cleaning and polishing, significantly reducing the need for manual labour in most cases by providing an automated solution.

How long does it take to post-process parts with Fuse Blast?

For typical post-processing on the Fuse Series ecosystem, expect a total time of 15-30 minutes, which comprises the following steps:

1. Extracting parts from the powder with Fuse Sift (5-10 minutes, manual).
2. Cleaning with Fuse Blast (10-15 minutes, automatic or manual).
3. Optionally, polishing with Fuse Blast (10-15 minutes, automatic or manual, also cleans parts).

Please note that various factors like material, part geometry, quantity, powder reclaim, and media wear can affect the cleaning time.
