The PowerVat features a rigid vat design for use with SolFlex 3D printers. The
newly developed design enables manufacturing of models with large cross-
sections as well as using highly viscous resins. The vat frame’s solid metal
construction combined with the translucent glass/film construction allows a long
service life, perfect printing results and low maintenance.
This document describes the proper use, cleaning, and maintenance of the vat.
The product described herein is for use only with SolFlex series 3D printers.
It is strongly recommended to read the instructions in this manual carefully before
using the material vat. Please follow the safety instructions to maximize the
lifespan of the vat and to get the best printing results.
Warning symbols in this manual are used to protect you from dangerous
situations. The following symbols are used to alert you to important information:
Important:
Provides additional information that should not be overlooked.
Caution:
Alerts you to situations that may damage the unit.
Ignoring the following instructions may result in reduced print quality or inability
to use the PowerVat.
Use only approved 3D printing resins and cleaning instruments. Avoid
contact of the PowerVat with other media. Improper use can damage the
vat’s film and therefore shorten maintenance intervals.
Never use sharp or pointed objects to clean the PowerVat or to remove any
residual material, as this could damage the film and the glass below the film.
Use only elastic and soft parts for cleaning.
