Description and video
Increase safety. Reduce costs, not capabilities, thanks to the transfer airlock
The TiBox-500 is a glove box specifically designed for working with metal powders used in 3D printing. It enables the operator to be fully isolated from contact with the powder, and the chamber creates and maintains an inert gas atmosphere inside.
An additional airlock allows objects to be transferred between the chamber and the external environment without compromising the atmosphere and without the need for re-purging.
Benefits
Clean process, guaranteed results
Construction
Made of stainless steel with enhanced resistance to abrasion and corrosion, which not only facilitates cleaning and disinfection but also eliminates the risk of powder contamination.
Integrated transfer system
The airlock enables safe transfer of components and materials without disturbing the internal atmosphere of the chamber and without the need for repeated gas purging, significantly reducing operating costs and downtime between work cycles.
Controlled protective atmosphere
Ability to maintain a stable, controlled inert gas atmosphere (e.g. argon), which significantly minimizes powder oxidation and ignition risk. The user can set an upper limit for the oxygen content in the chamber, up to a maximum of 1000 ppm.
Mobility
Base with four caster sets and adjustable feet ensures ease of transport.
Sensors
Measurement of oxygen content, pressure, and temperature inside the chamber.
Tightness
High tightness guarantees minimal consumption of argon or nitrogen.
TiBox-500 is not just a chamber
It is a comprehensive process tool that combines operator safety, material protection, and top-quality workmanship tailored to the rigorous demands of the additive manufacturing industry.
