Abstract
A device for separating particles contained in a gas stream for selective additive manufacturing and a selective additive manufacturing apparatus are disclosed. The device comprises at least one dry-type aeraulic separator comprising a separating turbine, a speed of rotation of which is variable. The dry-type aeraulic separator selects the particles contained in the gas stream according to a particle size depending on the speed of rotation of the separating turbine. The device also comprises a device for extracting the particles. The dry-type aeraulic separator and the extraction device are in fluidic communication such that a gas stream exiting the dry-type aeraulic separator circulates through the extraction device and such that the gas stream exiting the extraction device circulates through the dry-type aeraulic separator. The device also comprises a device for circulating the gas stream between the dry-type aeraulic separator and the extraction device.
