1. Print Platform Turn Knob- used to secure the
print platform prior to printing or to remove it
upon print completion.
2. Print Platform (in home position)- an Aluminium
assembly with the following features:
a. A coating for easier cleaning and removing
excess resin.
b. Roughened print platform silver surface to

c. The print platform has been pre-calibrated
on our production line according to strict QC
procedures. This ensures that the bottom
surface of the print platform is parallel with the
LCD screen.
d. Interchangeable platforms, print platforms
can be swapped between printers without the
need for re-calibration or homing. To achieve
optimum Z accuracy, it is recommended that
2 or more new platforms are dedicated to one
printer and swapped between each other.
