Helium for Additive Manufacturing

A rare but special gas.

Great assistance in the additive manufacturing process

Helium in the EBM process must be used pure; in the DED process instead, it can be used pure or mixed to explore its ionisation peculiarities like in the laser welding process, boosting speedincrease of the entire process. In the PBF process, it is difficult to use, as Helium requires a complete reassessment of the gas blowing and the recirculation systems integratedin the 3D printer machine in the market today.
