Pressure reduction device, process and computer program for manufacturing a pressure reduction device

A process of automated additive manufacturing of a pressure reduction device, the process comprising:

• providing an arrangement comprising an inner chamber and an outer chamber;
• providing a first gas supply line configured to provide fluidic communication from a high pressure gas source to a gas inlet of the inner chamber for supplying and delivering quantities of gas at the first pressure level from the high pressure gas source to the arrangement;
• providing a second gas supply line configured to provide fluidic communication from the outer chamber to a gas outlet for supplying and delivering quantities of gas at the level of the second pressure level to the gas outlet,
• wherein the steps of providing the arrangement and providing the second gas supply comprise arranging the second gas supply line on the arrangement having the inner chamber and the outer chamber by forming the second gas supply line with the arrangement as a common component formed as an integral single piece component such that the second gas supply line has an annular configuration and/or a helical configuration at least partially on an outside around at least one gas carrying section of the arrangement and a thermally conductive contact is at least partially provided between the at least one gas carrying section of the arrangement and the second gas supply line.

A computer program provided on a non-transitory computer-readable medium or computer program product comprising program code on a non-transitory computer-readable medium for carrying out a process for controlling a production facility, wherein the program code is executable on a computer, a processor or a programmable hardware component, the program code comprising instructions for controlling the production facility, which production facility comprises a 3D printing apparatus and/or drilling device, and/or turning device and/or milling device to form a pressure reduction device comprising an arrangement for reducing a first pressure level to a second pressure level, the arrangement comprising:

• an inner chamber;
• an outer chamber;
• and a first gas supply line providing fluidic communication from a high pressure gas source to a gas inlet of the inner chamber for supplying and delivering quantities of gas at the first pressure level from the high pressure gas source to the arrangement;
• and a second gas supply line providing fluidic communication from the outer chamber to a gas outlet for supplying and delivering quantities of gas at the level of the second pressure level to the gas outlet, wherein the 3D printing apparatus and/or the drilling device, and/or the turning device and/or the milling device forms the second gas supply line with the arrangement as a common component formed as an integral single piece component such that the second gas supply line has an annular configuration and/or a helical configuration at least partially on an outside around at least one gas carrying section of the arrangement and a thermally conductive contact is at least partially provided between the at least one gas carrying section of the arrangement and the second gas supply line.
