At this year’s RAPID + TCT trade show, Mass Finishing, Inc. proudly showcased its latest innovation designed specifically to help manufacturers remove support material on 3D printed parts more efficiently and consistently.
Representing the company at the event were Mike Marketon and Dave Morschen, who connected with industry professionals. They introduced attendees to the new HZ-6 Centrifugal Barrel Finishing Machine. The HZ-6 is a compact yet powerful solution for post-processing additively manufactured components.
The HZ-6 and 3D Printed Parts Support Material Removal
The need to effectively remove support material on 3D printed parts has become increasingly important as additive manufacturing continues to expand. Manual removal methods can be time-consuming, inconsistent, and labor-intensive. But Mass Finishing has an easier way!
The HZ-6 is the smallest centrifugal barrel finishing machine currently available on the market. This makes it an ideal choice for operations with limited space or those looking to integrate efficient finishing into smaller-scale workflows. Despite its compact size, the machine delivers high-energy processing. This significantly improves the ability to remove support material on 3D printed parts while maintaining part integrity.
The HZ-6 is designed with flexibility in mind. It is available in both full barrel and half barrel configurations. This allows users to fine-tune their process depending on part size, geometry, and production volume. Whether working with delicate features or more robust builds, the machine offers precise control over the finishing process.
One of the standout benefits of using centrifugal barrel finishing technology is its ability to access hard-to-reach areas and complex geometries. This is a common challenge when trying to remove support material on 3D printed parts. The HZ-6 enhances surface quality while reducing the need for manual intervention. This machine helps manufacturers save time and improve consistency.
