DYEMANSION POWERSHOT S
DYEMANSION PRINT-TO-PRODUCT WORKFLOW: STEP 1: CLEANING / STEP 2: SURFACING / STEP 3: COLORING
- HIGH-QUALITY END-USE PART FINISH
DyeMansion’s sophisticated PolyShot Surfacing (PSS) technology delivers a homogeneous surface quality, transforming porous, vulnerable powder-based plastics into long-lasting, finished products.
- GEOMETRY INDEPENDENT PROCESS
Fast, cost-effective and compatible with every geometry. The special PSS process reaches almost all areas of the part without any material removal.
- HOMGENEOUS SURFACE
The improved surface quality of the parts enables a consistent distribution of the color. Our automated process achieves this homogeneous surface quality at a cycle time of only 10 minutes.
- IMPROVED PROPERTIES
Shiny surfaces and pleasant haptics enable an improved look & feel for powder-bed plastics, which is the key to high-value 3D-printed products.

SURFACE QUALITY MAKES THE DIFFERENCE
Our PolyShot Surfacing (PSS) process prepares your parts for a good and homogeneous coloring result. The open pores of the polymer parts are homogenized with a special blasting media through the blasting nozzles. The process is clean and powder-free thanks to the ionized flat-jet nozzles. Due to the rotation of the basket inside the blaster, all parts are processed evenly and surface roughness is refined. Depending on the desired effect the PSS process can be repeated one more time after the coloring cycle.
CAPACITY PER RUN: UP TO 75% OF AN EOS P396 OR HP JET FUSION 4200 BUILD JOB
SPECIAL BLASTING NOZZLE SET-UP & AUTOMATED BLASTING MEDIA CLEANING
The combination of blasting and ionizing nozzles are optimized to achieve this powder-free process. A high-performance, adjustable cyclone separates the blasting media from other particles and keeps the cabinet clean.
THE KEY TO 3D-PRINTED INDUSTRIAL AND CONSUMER PRODUCTS
Our PSS process is compatible with every geometry and reaches almost all areas of the part in a few minutes. This way it’s possible to finish the surface of almost every powder-based plastic part and to achieve a more homogeneous surface quality than on an untreated part.
Using our PolyShot Surfacing process, the surface of AM plastics gets a matt glossy look. A product property that increases the visual quality of your parts dramatically.
Due to the closed pores after the blasting step, the parts become more dirt- and scratch-resistant. This is crucial for products that are constantly exposed to water and dirt (e.g. eyewear, sporting goods).
The parts show much better haptics and can be worn directly on the skin.
