To ensure a new machine concept would address the key industry requirements, detailed research was undertaken. Major manufacturers were consulted, specifying the fundamental factors which were needed to guarantee powder quality as well as operator safety to help the industry move forward. The Russell AMPro® Sieve Station was developed which provides sophisticated powder handling specifically engineered to meet the needs of the AM industry. The system is designed to screen virgin powder as well as recover and requalify AM powders in one simple operation to guarantee the quality and reliability of final manufactured products. After the launch of the Russell AMPro® Sieve Station, our team collected customer feedback and improvements were implemented. An example of this is the newly developed AMPro® Lite and AMPro® Lab aimed to further meet the needs of the industry as it evolves, by offering alternative solutions to the original AMPro® machine.
