Navector 3D Printing Additive Recycling System: Empowering Green Intelligent Manufacturing and Achieving Efficient Utilization

Navector (Shanghai) Screening Technology Co., Ltd. takes screening technology as its core and has accumulated extensive technical expertise and market applications in powder and particle separation as well as high-end manufacturing. The independently developed Navector 3D printing additive recycling system provides a systematic solution for the circulation and reuse of industrial metal powders and demonstrates significant advantages in reducing material loss.

The Navector-developed 3D printing additive recycling system is a patented piece of equipment mainly used for material screening and recycling during metal powder additive manufacturing processes. The system features a fully enclosed structure and an inert gas protection environment. This design ensures low oxygen content during screening, effectively preventing metal powder oxidation and improving the stability of powder quality.

During the 3D printing process, metal powders generate condensates that are not fully deposited. When such condensates mix with unused powder, they can contaminate the raw material, reduce printing accuracy, and affect product performance. The Navector system adopts real-time suction screening technology, which can promptly separate escaped powders and contaminants while maintaining the original properties of the powder in an inert gas environment. This process effectively avoids waste caused by contamination and improves raw material utilization.

During operation, the 3D printing additive recycling system can continuously separate and recover powder. The equipment automatically transfers the screened metal powder back to the powder supply system, realizing raw material recycling. Automated recovery and refilling reduce the need for manual intervention, helping maintain production continuity, lower labor costs, enhance operational safety, and avoid material waste caused by improper manual operations.

The system’s enclosed operating characteristics prevent fine powders from escaping, further controlling powder loss. Navector considered ease of cleaning and noise control during the design stage, making the equipment more suitable for long-term stable operation. The design incorporating a small number of easily detachable components simplifies maintenance procedures, reduces downtime for servicing, and improves overall production efficiency.

The technical advantages of the 3D printing additive recycling system are reflected not only in recycling efficiency but also in oxidation control of highly active metal powders. Screening under an inert environment effectively suppresses contact between fine powders and oxygen, thereby reducing material loss and safety risks caused by oxidation. This technology is particularly effective in applications involving aluminum, titanium, and other metal powders, helping improve product quality and production consistency.

Through technological innovation, the Navector 3D printing additive recycling system significantly reduces metal powder material loss, provides support for cost reduction and efficiency improvement in the 3D printing industry, and helps the manufacturing sector move toward a greener and more sustainable direction.
