The VX200 is the most compact 3D printer in the voxeljet portfolio. It weighs a mere 450 kilograms and, thanks to its dimensions of only 1,700 x 900 x 1,500 mm (LxWxH), the VX200 can be installed without problems in places where space is tight, such as research laboratories. The machine is very fast, easy to operate and permits the economical production of small prototypes and design pieces. Plastic and sand can be used as the particulate materials. The build space measures 300 x 200 x 150 mm. The VX200's print head system can achieve a resolution of up to 300 dpi. The thickness of a layer applied in one cycle is 150 µm for plastic and 300 µm for sand.

The VX500 is a 3D printer for industrial applications that has been tried and tested many times over in practice. These machines can be found wherever there is a demand for the straightforward production of prototypes and models. Despite their compact dimensions, they captivate with the features of a high-performance printer, such as multi-jet print heads, integrated material handling and job boxes. The machine is very fast, easy to operate and permits cost-effective production of both individual parts and small series alike. Plastic can be used as the particulate material. The machine's build space measures 500 x 400 x 300 mm. The VX500's print head system can achieve a resolution of up to 600 dpi. The thickness of a layer applied in one cycle is 150 µm. In addition, the VX500 concept is resource-friendly: In plastic processes, the unprinted particulate material is recyclable.

Our international bestseller: the VX1000 is a universal 3D printer for industrial applications.

The VX2000 is a 3D printer for industrial applications. It is a particularly good choice for cost-effectively producing large-format models from sand cores for prototyping. The VX2000 can also be used to economically manufacture small-series components. The machine is fast and easy to operate. The build space measures up to 2,000 x 1,000 x 1,000 mm. The VX2000's print head system can achieve a resolution of up to 300 dpi. A layer applied in one cycle is 300 µm thick.

The VX4000 is the world's biggest industrial 3D printing system for sand molds. It has a cohesive build space measuring 4,000 x 2,000 x 1,000 mm (LxWxH). This machine can be used to economically produce very large individual molds, a great many small series components or a combination of the two. With its uniquely large volume, the VX4000 maximizes productivity and flexibility. The unique and patented layering process was specially adapted for this printer. Instead of lowering the building platform during the printing process, the print head and coater are raised with each layer. As a result, the machine can bear the enormous weight of the building platform, which can be quickly exchanged via a rail—making it possible to print nearly continuously. Sand can be used as the particulate material. The VX4000's print head system can achieve a resolution of up to 300 dpi. A layer applied in one cycle is 300 µm thick.

The Suvis GmbH also deals with the application of modern numerical methods for the lay out and optimisation of various separator types like cyclones. A typical application of these computation methods is the computer aided investigation of particle separation from gases in cyclones. The prediction of the separation efficiency allows the reliable optimisation of conventional cyclones and the development of completely novel high efficiency cyclones. With that, very often expensive filter units, wet cleaner, or costly electro filters can be replaced or completed. When applying numerical methods (CFD simulations) to cyclones one encounters the problem of strong curvature of the stream lines because of the resulting strong swirl flow and the abrupt change of flow direction towards the outlet tube. This means that the assumption of isotropic turbulence is not useful anymore.

Process steps are essentially concept, development and implementation. In the conception phase, free associations and thoughts play the main role. essentially it is about approaches to problem-solving. different methods for finding ideas are used here. Well-known solutions and familiar processes are questioned, alternatives are considered. The development transfers the approaches to more or less concrete forms, the first geometries are created. flow e.g. ergonomic, technical and aesthetic parameters. Materials are considered, manufacturing processes are considered. In the implementation, the detailed processing of the draft takes place with the aim of conveying specifications to the manufacturers that are not technically feasible or economically viable. Hand sketches and 3D software are used. Visualizations can be created to get realistic ideas about the products. Drafts can be converted into models in our own model making workshop as well as with the 3D printer.
