AM-Flow
Automating the 3D Printing Post-Processing Workflow.
Overview
AM-Flow provides a unique solution in the additive manufacturing space by focusing on the automation of post-processing, which is often a major bottleneck. Their system uses a combination of 3D shape recognition, AI, and robotics to identify, sort, handle, and transport 3D printed parts automatically. This creates a 'lights-out' post-processing workflow, connecting the printer to the final shipping box with minimal human intervention.
✨ Key Features
- AI-based 3D part identification and recognition
- Automated sorting and routing of parts
- Robotic part handling and bin picking
- Integration with MES and ERP systems
- End-to-end workflow tracking and data collection
- Modular hardware components (conveyors, sorting modules, etc.)
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Focus on the 'digital thread' through post-processing using AI and computer vision
- End-to-end automation from printer to package
- Modular and scalable hardware/software solution
Unique Value: Solves the critical post-processing bottleneck in additive manufacturing, enabling true, scalable digital production by automating the manual, error-prone steps after printing.
🎯 Use Cases (4)
✅ Best For
- Large-scale 3D printing service bureaus
- Centralized manufacturing hubs for enterprises
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Low-volume or prototyping labs with minimal post-processing needs
- Companies not looking to invest in hardware automation
🏆 Alternatives
Unlike competitors who focus on automating a single post-processing step (like depowdering or coloring), AM-Flow provides the overarching logic and handling to connect all these steps into a seamless, automated flow.
