Nitrogen plays an essential role in additive manufacturing, which is more commonly known as 3D printing. This technology allows lighter and stronger parts and systems to be created with a 3D printer joining materials, e.g. metal. – typically layer by layer. Pneumatech ensures that you always have the required top-quality nitrogen for 3D printing. 

Because of the importance of nitrogen for 3D printing, there is a specific set of N2 requirements for additive manufacturing:
 

• Reliability: 3D print jobs can take days to complete. That means a reliable supply of nitrogen must be available at all time.
  
  
• Compact and quiet: Additive manufacturing nitrogen generators are typically installed at the point of use. In a workshop and with people working in close proximity, a compact and quiet gas generator is a must.
  
  
• Cost savings: Additive manufacturing requires a lot of nitrogen, which makes keeping gas costs in check an important consideration. 

Many additive manufacturing companies still purchase their industrial gases, even though producing nitrogen on-site offers more advantages. On-site generation is a more cost-efficient solution, reducing the money spent on industrial gas. It also eliminates the need for bottled or liquid gas deliveries, helping to lower the environmental footprint.

Additionally, it provides greater control over the industrial gas supply, ensuring a reliable and consistent source. Finally, it simplifies operations by removing the logistical challenges associated with gas supply management.

Pneumatech offers you more than “just” the best nitrogen generator on the market. We can also provide oxygen generators and all your turnkey air treatment equipment. In addition, we support additive manufacturing equipment manufacturers in co-developing bespoke gas applications as an OEM partner.
