  • Patent number: 11220058
    Abstract: A device for treating 3D powder printing elements includes a first chamber with a first partial chamber and a second partial chamber separated by at least one screen grid. Grid meshes allow compressed powder residues to pass through. A rotation means rotates the first chamber about an axis of rotation, in particular with a rotary passage. The screen grid is inclined, in particular perpendicular, to the axis of rotation of the first chamber. A filling region allows filling the 3D powder printing elements into the first partial chamber. Gas medium is supplied in the first chamber, in particular in the first partial chamber. Gas medium suction means extract plastic powder residues from the first chamber, in particular from the second partial chamber. The gas medium suction means are mounted in or parallel to the axis of rotation and/or centered by the rotary means, in particular within the rotary passage.
