Solukon and HDC Co. partner for AM Market in South Korea

2021 is a year of expansion for depowdering pioneer Solukon. For a greater market reach the company has already won distribution partners for Canada, UK, Ireland and Turkey this year. Now, HDC Co. joins the team and partners with Solukon for the South Korean market in Additive Manufacturing.

Solukon is the known pioneer and technical leader of industrial powder removal systems in Additive Manufacturing. Solukon systems rely on the unique Smart Powder Recuperation technology SPR® and remove loose powder from metal laser melted parts within a sealed process chamber, using adjustable vibration and automated two-axis part rotation. Through programmable rotation of the build-plate in two axes, unfused metal build material is completely removed from complex channels and geometries. This means a significant increase in efficiency, security and quality while saving costs.

Highly experienced reseller for South Korea

HDC Co. has been in the 3D printing business since 1999 as a 3D printing bureau, a consulting service and a distributor for additive manufacturing solutions. In South Korea, HDC among others already represents German OEM EOS. Therefore, Solukon put their trust in a highly experienced AM partner.

Brian C.G. Seo, President of HDC Co. is delighted about the partnership with Solukon, “For years, HDC Co. has been working with the international leaders in the AM industry. By partnering with Solukon, we’re fortunately able to offer our customers the top-of-the-line depowdering solution, too.” 

Michael Sattler, Global Sales Director at Solukon responsible for the reseller network adds, “Awareness of the need for safe and repeatable postprocessing is increasing around the world. We’re pleased to have HDC Co. as a trusted partner for the South Korean market who will meet the increased demand for automated depowdering there.”
