Materials and fixtures
Material flatness is key
The most important requirement for the target material is that it be flat (parallel) with respect to the
catcher top (which should be parallel to the XY plane).Watch out for material that has a flat surface, but
is tilted up on a corner or side or warped material that might touch the catcher top on the edges, but the
center is warped up.
Non-flat material affects standoff and cutting accuracy. How much error will result from non-flat material
is directly related to the tilt applied by FlowCut, and the change from programmed standoff. Standoff is
directly related to the flatness of the material, and part accuracy will be affected as the material
approaches or recedes from the mixing tube tip.
