Open the fiber clamps and 

mold. 

 

The protective tissues 

must be removed from 

the opened clamps 

before laying fiber into 

the recoater. 

Hold the spliced fiber taut  

and lay the fiber across the 

recoater from left to right. 

 

Make sure the fiber is 

centered in the foam 

guides at the outer ends 

of each clamp and is 

aligned with the V-

grooves at each side of 

the mold. 

Close the left fiber clamp. 

 

The fiber clamp slides 

from left to right. Keep 

enough tension in the 

fiber to prevent the fiber 

from jumping out of the 

V-grooves. 

Gently pull the fiber to the 

right to slide the left-side 

fiber clamp to its rightmost 

position. 

 

Take note of the position 

of the left fiber clamp in 

Step 5 versus Step 6.
