28.9 Composite block de-foaming solution
A composite block de-foaming solution is used with 3M’s
Paradigm MZ100 blocks. Due to the nature of the
composite material when milled, it is necessary to use this
solution every time you mill with the MZ100 block. Without
the de-foaming solution, the milling fluid may foam and
overflow.
1. After inserting the MZ100 block into the milling chamber,
shake the bottle of de-foaming solution and position it
over the chamber.
2. Press the nozzle to release the solution directly into the
milling chamber.
3. Close the chamber and begin the milling process as
explained below.
