Formlabs Fuse Sift X1 — a large-format powder recovery station that automates post-processing after SLS printing. The integrated conveying system moves used powder from the station to the Mix Kit without operator involvement. A built-in compressed air inlet together with an air gun cleans parts within seconds, replacing manual brush cleaning. A sealed glovebox chamber keeps the work area clean regardless of production volume.
| Parameter | Your benefit |
|---|---|
| Powder capacity: 3–5 full print cycles | Allows production to continue for several shifts in a row without an intermediate hopper clean-out. |
| Powder conveying: automatic, to the Mix Kit | The operator does not carry containers by hand between stations, cutting post-processing time. |
| Parts cleaning: integrated compressed air inlet and gun | Removes powder residue from recesses in seconds instead of manual brush cleaning. |
| Work area: sealed glovebox chamber | Keeps powder dust contained within the chamber regardless of parts batch volume. |
- Automatic conveying: the Formlabs Fuse Sift X1 independently moves used powder to the Mix Kit, freeing the operator from manually carrying containers.
- Fast parts cleaning: the integrated compressed air inlet and gun clear powder from recesses within seconds.
- Clean working environment: the sealed glovebox chamber keeps dust contained regardless of parts batch size.
- Convenient unloading: the built-in parts hatch sends them straight into the transport container, freeing up the worktop.
Operating principle
The Formlabs Fuse Sift X1 automates the post-processing stage that traditionally required manual powder sieving. The integrated conveying system moves used material directly from the station to the Mix Kit. The operator is not involved in transferring containers between devices. The station's capacity covers 3 to 5 full print cycles. This allows production to continue for several shifts in a row without stopping for cleaning.
Work chamber design
Sealed chamber
The station's chamber is fully enclosed, so the operator works through glove ports without direct contact with the powder. This keeps dust within the work area regardless of parts batch size.
Viewing and access
A mesh viewing hood allows the sieving process to be monitored without opening the chamber. Two side doors and technical access openings simplify station maintenance without dismantling the main assemblies.
Parts cleaning and unloading
The integrated compressed air inlet and gun remove powder residue from parts recesses within seconds. This replaces the slow manual brush cleaning typical of classic SLS post-processing workflows. The built-in parts hatch sends broken-out elements straight into the transport container. The worktop remains free for the next batch of parts.
Applications
- Multi-shift SLS production: the Formlabs Fuse Sift X1's capacity of 3–5 print cycles allows work to continue for several shifts in a row without stopping to clean the equipment.
- Production lines with multiple SLS printers: automatic powder conveying to the Mix Kit frees the operator from manually carrying containers between printing stations.
- Post-processing of complex-geometry parts: the compressed air inlet and gun remove powder from recesses within seconds, replacing manual brush cleaning.
- Facilities with elevated cleanliness requirements: the sealed glovebox chamber keeps powder dust contained regardless of parts batch volume.
- Fast batch turnaround: the built-in hatch sends broken-out parts straight into the transport container, freeing up the worktop for the next cycle.
Compatible accessories
The Formlabs Fuse Sift X1 integrates with the Mix Kit: the powder conveying system automatically transfers used material to this unit for further mixing and reuse.
