Xiris Automation collaborates with Amazemet XIRIS Automation has announced its latest innovative project in collaboration with Amazemet, which aims to help the automation of plasma materials recycling. As part of this collaboration, Xiris will provide machine-vision based technology that will allow for the recording and closed-loop control of processes to assist research opportunities during the development of new materials and optimisation of powder production processes. process to enable large-scale recycling of materials such as titanium alloys. With Xiris Automation’s experience in machine-vision, along with its thermal camera that combines 120+ dB HDR Short-Wave InfraRed (SWIR) imaging, the process will be fully recorded to then analyse the process, allowing for full automation and control.

The project incorporates a plasma atomisation process using patented ultrasonic technology to create a cost- and energy-efficient powder production method. The method can use recycled scrap materials to provide the highest quality AM-grade powder.

Additionally, with the help of automation tools provided by Xiris WeldStudio™ software, Xiris and Amazemet will begin to scale the

Amazemet is a spin-off of the Warsaw University of Technology, focused on developing devices that support the Additive Manufacturing process including ultrasonic atomisers used for customised metal powder production suitable for 3D printing from materials of any geometry; and a processing platform for automatic removal of support structures and surface finishes on printed parts formed from titanium alloys.
