VBN Components - the right climate in the production room

"VBN Components uses several unique metal powders for additive manufacturing and we set very high standards for quality in our production environment. This means that our production process allows us to deliver materials with extreme resistance to wear and heat. It's great to use an energy and environmentally smart solution like dehumidifiers from Airwatergreen that deliver the climate we need!"

Maintaining a correct low relative humidity level in production

QUICK FACTS

Background information

VBN Components is a Swedish innovation company that has developed its own set of extremely hard, durable and resistant metals for additive manufacturing ("3D printing"). It has a proprietary production process where it manufactures its various patented materials under the brand name Vibenite®.

The production environment of metal powder handling requires control of the moisture level in the air.

What problems did the Airwatergreen dehumidifier solve?

Three FLEX Cloud were installed to dehumidify the airflow circulating in the production rooms to a specific level. The FLEX dehumidifiers have created a dry production environment suitable for handling the materials used in 3D printing.

As pioneers, VBN has been using Airwatergreen solutions since the beginning.

Benefits of using awg products vs. doing nothing?

Keeping a low and low relative humidity level is an absolute requirement in our manufacturing process. Metallic powder is used during production and high demands are placed on the quality of the air in the production room.
