DyeMansion opens orders for Powershot Go, a compact blasting unit under 14,000 euros

Published 2 sourcesSummary written with AIDeutsche Version

DyeMansion has launched the Powershot Go at Formnext 2026, a compact depowdering and surfacing system for plastic powder bed parts, priced below EUR 14,000. It is validated as an HP Qualified Solution for the HP MJF 1200 but works with other powder bed printers. Orders are open and first deliveries are planned for Q1 2027.

Key facts
  • Price below EUR 14,000 (USD 17,000), excluding taxes and shipping
  • First deliveries in Q1 2027, orders already open
  • 57 l basket, 15 l effective volume, about 2.6 m² floor space
  • Validated as HP Qualified Solution for the HP MJF 1200

Context Powder bed parts leave the printer covered in residual powder and with a porous surface, so they are usually depowdered and blasted before dyeing or smoothing.

What the Powershot Go does

The system cleans and surfaces parts from powder bed printers. PolyShot Cleaning removes residual powder automatically and prepares parts for later steps such as dyeing or vapor smoothing. PolyShot Surfacing evens out the porous look of the parts and leaves a semi-glossy, more scratch-resistant finish.

It runs on glass or plastic blasting media, one type at a time. Glass gives clean, depowdered parts, while plastic media combine cleaning with surfacing. DyeMansion states that both options are included from the start, with no paid upgrades.

Size, capacity and price

The basket holds 57 litres, of which 15 litres are effective usable volume. DyeMansion calls this the largest usable volume in its class, on about 2.6 square metres of floor space. The Powershot X offers 26 litres for mid-size batches, and the Powershot DUAL Performance offers 55 litres with extra automation for serial production.

The price is below EUR 14,000 (USD 17,000) including all items, excluding taxes and shipping. Orders are open, and the first units ship in Q1 2027. Compressed air and power needs are described as low, and self-maintenance as minimal.

Developed with HP for the MJF 1200

The unit was developed with HP as the finishing partner for the new HP MJF 1200 and validated as an HP Qualified Solution. The capacities are aligned: a complete build from the MJF 1200 fits into one Powershot Go cycle. It can also be used with other powder bed technologies.

Together with the VX1 vapor smoothing system it forms DyeMansion's compact industrial line. At Formnext, running 17 to 20 November, it is shown in Hall 12.1 at DyeMansion booth C32 and in a live demo at the HP booth D41. DyeMansion names small-batch work in paediatric orthotics and prosthetics workshops as a typical use.

What it means

For small and mid-sized manufacturers adopting compact powder bed printers, finishing is often a separate and unplanned cost. A listed price below EUR 14,000 gives a clearer total-cost basis, though a usable volume of 15 litres means high-volume users should check throughput against their build sizes. The HP qualification helps with process documentation, but only for the MJF 1200 pairing. Deliveries start in Q1 2027, so planning should assume that date, not the trade fair demo.
