Parts go into a front-loading chamber built for large parts or batch production. Conditioning, processing, curing and drying then run in one closed-loop cycle.[1,2] 1. ### Conditioning Parts are conditioned in the chamber to reach the right processing conditions. 2. ### Processing Vaporized consumable is injected into the chamber and smooths part surfaces under controlled conditions. 3. ### Curing The consumable is removed from the surface and the surface resolidifies. 4. ### Drying Parts are dried so no consumable remains in the chamber, ready for use. 5. up to 2 h[1] One cycle, all four stages The four stages of one PostPro cycle.[1] ### Materials - **Chamber**: 400 × 600 × 400 mm (100 L) - **Loading**: Front-loading chamber for large parts or batch production - **Printers**: MJF, SLS, SAF, HSS; FDM (including Ultem, Onyx, ABS and ASA)[1,2,4] - **Materials**: PA12 · PA11 · TPU · TPE · PP (FA9202) · FDM (Ultem, Onyx, ABS, ASA); 100+ thermoplastics with FA326 on SF50 and SF100[1,2,4] #### Finishing agents and compatibility lists - #### FA5802 (Pure) Finishing agent Works in SFX · SF2X · SF50 · SF100[4] [About Pure](https://amtechnologies.com/products/vapor-smoothing/consumables/#pure) - #### FA326 High performance For 100+ thermoplastics · works in SF50 · SF100[4] [About FA326](https://amtechnologies.com/products/vapor-smoothing/consumables/#fa326) - #### FA9202 Polypropylene Dedicated consumable for finishing polypropylene parts[2] [About FA9202](https://amtechnologies.com/products/vapor-smoothing/consumables/#fa9202) AMT supports the collection and delivery of recovered consumables.[1] Canisters are priced on quotation: Price. - List · [PostPro compatible material list: FA5802 (Pure) (PDF)](https://amtechnologies.com/resources/documents/sf-fa5802-compatible-materials-list/) V3.2 · Nov 2024 - List · [PostPro compatible material list: FA326 (PDF)](https://amtechnologies.com/resources/documents/compatible-materials-list/) V6.1 · Apr 2025 - List · [PostPro compatible material list: PostPro PP, FA9202 (PDF)](https://amtechnologies.com/resources/documents/sf-fa9202-polypropylene-compatible-materials-list/) V1.3 · Nov 2024 - Safety · [Safety data sheet and health and safety overview](https://amtechnologies.com/products/vapor-smoothing/consumables/#pure) On each agent card [See the SF100 open up](https://amtechnologies.com/#inside) ## Results, and who runs an SF100.

[Ask an engineer](https://amtechnologies.com/contact-us/?topic=engineer&for=SF100#engineer) ### What is the PostPro SF100? An automated, industrial vapor smoothing system by AMT (Additive Manufacturing Technologies), sized for high-volume production. It finishes 3D printed polymer parts in a 400 × 600 × 400 mm (100 L) process chamber, in an automated cycle of up to 2 h.[1] ### How is the SF100 different from the SF50? Both share the same 830 × 1400 × 1830 mm[2] cabinet, the same controls and the same automated cycle of up to 2 h. The SF100's process chamber is 400 × 600 × 400 mm (100 L); the SF50's is 400 × 300 × 400 mm (50 L).[1] ### Can the SF100 run unattended? Yes, with the Digital Manufacturing System (DMS). DMS loads and unloads PostPro SF100 systems automatically, recognizes each tray and selects the recipe for the batch, for 24/7 unattended production.[2,11] The Auto Load/Unload Module for SF is priced on quotation: Automate with DMS ### How much does the PostPro SF100 cost? The SF100's starting price is in the Price chapter on this page, excluding tax and shipping. Every SF100 is supplied with the PostPro SF100 Ancillaries Pack, and installation, remote or on site, is part of every order;[8] your quotation prices them with the machine, with training and the care pack you choose: RemoteCare (standard tier) or HyperCare (premium tier), for one, two or three years. ### What does the SF100 need on site? Three-phase power (Three-phase, 400 V or 480 V, 50/60 Hz; EU: L1+L2+L3+N+PE · US: L1+L2+L3+PE), a 830 × 1400 mm footprint and a recommended operating area of 2350 × 3200 mm.[2] Compressed air, extraction and network requirements come with your installation pack: [request installation requirements](https://amtechnologies.com/contact-us/?topic=engineer&q=Please+send+the+installation+requirements+for+the+PostPro+SF100.&for=SF100#engineer) ### Which parts and materials can the SF100 smooth? Parts from MJF, SLS, SAF, HSS; FDM (including Ultem, Onyx, ABS and ASA)[1,2,4] printers, in PA12 · PA11 · TPU · TPE · PP (FA9202) · FDM (Ultem, Onyx, ABS, ASA)[1,2,4]. Three finishing agents are available: FA5802 (Pure) · FA326 · FA9202[1,4]. ### Can I test my parts before I buy? Yes.
