Cooling Helium-Based Process Gas for 3D Metal Printing
A company specializing in laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) metal printing required a sanitary-type shell & tube heat exchanger to cool Helium-based process gas used in their advanced 3D printing process. The process gas, Helistar A1025, is a critical mixture comprising of 90% Helium, 7.5% Argon, 2.5% CO2. The solution needed to meet the precise cooling requirements of the printing operation, cooling the process gas from 110°C down to 20°C.
