The next generation of surfaces

Vapor Smoothing

The green and industrial vapor smoothing system for injection moulding-like sealed surfaces for your AM parts – across all geometries. Vapor Smoothing is one of the most groundbreaking and effective post-processing methods of the past decade. 

Why Vapor Smoothing?

Recent advances in the technologies available to the market have resulted in surface finishes on AM parts which rival that of injection moulded components – something previously unobtainable using 3D printing. There are a lot of advantages. Below you will find some of them. 

  • Injection moulding like surfaces
    – inside and out

  • Eco-friendly process 

  • FDA approved for the processing of plastics with food contact

  • Sealed and washable surfaces – great for applications in sports/lifestyle sector or medical sector where parts have body contact

  • Improved stability & airtightness

  • Reduced friction

  • Bacteria inhibition

  • The technology can be used on both hard and soft materials

Vapor Smoothing Put to the Test

Bacteria Protection

How do the vapor smoothing technique influence the bacterial growth on a part? This video shows a simple contact test, using a sample part and contact plates. The result show that bacteria growth is fast on an untreated part, while the VFS treated part still shows no sign of bacteria growth after 40 hours.

Sealed Inner Surfaces

Vapor Smoothing can also be used to smooth internal surfaces. The post processing system reduce the surface roughness of over 80%, which lead to better water and airflow.
