Save and Verify Build Packet
When all parts are arranged and parameters are
set, the last step is to save and verify the build
packet. This step ensures that the build will work.
It also creates a
sorted facet file (.sff ) the SLS
system uses to scan parts.
L
You cannot run a build packet until it is verified.
To save and verify a build packet, select File >
Save & Verify . After verification, the build packet
is saved in your ..dtm\build folder with a .bpf
extension.
After you perform the rest of the build
preparation procedures in this section, you’ll be
ready to run the build as described in
Build Parts
on page 73. At that point, you copy this .bpf file
to the ..dtm\build folder on your SLS system
computer, then run the build packet in the Sinter
application.
