ESD-free
Floor leakage resistance should be below 100 MΩ.
In many factory environments the conventional flooring materials, such as bare concrete or steel grids, are
adequately conductive.
In order to remain effective, the floor should not be covered by insulating paint, rubber mats, or plastic
sheets; care should be taken to prevent the build-up of contaminants such as resin or other insulating
substances; and its resistance should be regularly checked.

Free from floor vibration: for example, floor vibration is likely near a railway station, press machine room,
construction site, or heavy industry. If such vibration cannot be avoided, suitable floor preconditioning to
mitigate vibration may be needed for optimal printer performance.
NOTE:
The floor surface over which the build unit will move between the printer and the processing station
should have the same characteristics: it should be horizontal, free of steps, holes, and indentations, smooth to
avoid transport vibrations, and far from any obstacle that might cause accidental shocks. It is vital to avoid
damage to the contents of the build unit, both when it is full of fresh material and also after printing. Move the
build unit slowly and with care.
Designing the optimal print-production area
You will need enough space to perform the following tasks:
●
●
Insert the build unit
●
Service the printer and replace its components
The height of the room is recommended to be at least 2500 mm (98 in) to accommodate the printer and the
processing station.
