MATERIAL DELIVERY MODULE TEMPERATURE CONTROL
The ProX 950 offers offline and online heating. When the power cord from the machine is connected to the MDM, the system
has online heating; when the power from a wall outlet is connected, the system has offline heating. The MDM can be heated
either outside the system enclosure, via the stand-by mode, or inside the enclosure. Material can be heated from a room
temperature of 20°C to 28°C, or colder. Typical time for heating is two to three hours, but cold material can take considerably
longer.
AUTO MATERIAL REFILL SYSTEM
The
auto material refill system
is located on the MDM. This system adds material to the MDM from the material container(s)
located in the refill slots. If the material level is too low, the auto material refill system will display the message,
“
Material
Autofill in Progress,
”
and will add material from one of the containers. The print job starts after the material reaches the
correct level in the reservoir. If the material refill containers are empty, the system will alert the user to replace them with full
containers. For more information see
