Uncured part material waste is classified as regulated, and in some areas hazardous; requiring special packaging,
transportation, and disposal . The disposal of partially cured or uncured part material must comply with all local, state, and
federal environmental safety regulations . Applicable part “waste” includes cartridges (empty or full) and waste pans . Any
materials used cleaning up uncured part material should be disposed of as uncured part material .
•
To find out facility disposal requirements, contact a local waste disposal provider. (Local environmental regulatory agency
should have a list of qualified providers.) You will need to give disposal service provider a copy of the part material MSDS
/ SDS, and possibly other forms included in the Appendix of your VisiJet® Material Handling Guide, such as Waste Profile
Worksheet and SNUR (Significant New Use Regulation - U.S. only). A report will be provided, indicating disposal require
-
ments, as well as a quotation for regularly scheduled pickups . If assistance is needed locating a waste disposal provider,
or completing a waste disposal form, contact your local 3D Systems certified reseller or 3D Systems Technical Support.
