Draw particles and filament fumes away from open-frame 3D printers without cooling off printed parts. Unlike standard air cleaners, which create airflow strong enough to cool the print area and warp your parts, these low-airflow cleaners won’t disrupt your print. A three-part filtering process keeps you from breathing harmful emissions: a prefilter traps large particles, then a combination HEPA and activated carbon filter captures both fine particles and fumes. These CE marked cleaners meet health, safety, and environmental protection standards for products.

Attach the included hose and funnel to the cleaner to pull fumes directly from your printer. These compact, lightweight cleaners fit into most work areas, and are quiet enough for office use. The powder-coated steel housing holds up over a long service life.

Simultaneously clean up and neutralize metal powders and other combustible dust, such as coal, plastic, and flour. These vacuums collect combustible dust in a bag, then submerge the bag in a water or mineral oil bath. This makes the dust inert. Because some metal powders emit gas when added to an immersion bath, the vacuums also have a degassing valve to vent any gas that builds up.

These vacuums and their tools dissipate static, so they won’t suddenly discharge electricity that could ignite your powder or nearby gases. The nozzle and crevice tool are small enough to use in compact spaces, such as 3D printer housings.

These vacuums are CSA certified for use in all NEC Class II environments—those where combustible dusts are present under normal operating conditions. In addition, they’re also certified for use in Class I, Divisions 1 and 2, Group D environments, so they can be used in environments where flammable gases, vapors, and liquids with characteristics similar to propane can be found under normal operating conditions.

A built-in drive simplifies your servomotor setup, removing the need for cable between the motor and drive. DC servomotors are often used for small automation applications, such as pick-and-place machines, because they deliver lots of power in a small package. This system includes a motor, encoder, and drive for accurate positioning and fine control over speed and position.

These servomotors use the same step and direction commands as a stepper motor, so you can upgrade your current stepper motor system with this system. Use a computer to set up and calibrate the motor to your system. After initial setup, use a separate controller, such as a programmable logic controller (PLC), microcontroller, or indexer. The encoder relays distance, direction, and speed back to the servomotor. Based on this feedback, the servomotor dynamically adapts its movements to increase system efficiency.

Combine the high torque at low speeds that traditional stepper motors are known for with the greater torque performance and positioning reliability of a servomotor. They create rotary motion based on signals from a drive (sold separately). As these servomotors move, their encoder relays the shaft’s distance, direction, and speed back to the drive. The drive increases your system’s efficiency by taking the electrical signal from the encoder and dynamically adapting the motor’s movements, also accounting for inconsistent loads and unexpected forces.
