Every SLS process machine has at least one large
red emergency stop button (“
E-Stop ”). If you
press an emergency stop button on a machine,
that machine—and any other machine or device
it’s controlling—shuts down immediately and
completely.
To ensure safety, train everyone at your site who works on or near
SLS equipment how to stop these machines in an emergency.
