COMPRESSED AIR REQUIREMENTS
A customer supplied compressed air system must be in place
before
the ProX
®
DMP100 is installed.
When installing the compressed air supply line:
•
Route compressed air supply line through the ceiling.
•
Locate the drop over the control panel.
•
Keep the compressed air line as short as possible to ensure proper pressure.
The connection for the compressed air supply is located on the bottom right of the printer.

WORKSTATION AND SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS
Supplied by
: Computer : Customer or 3D Systems - Software : 3D Systems
Installed by
: Customer or 3D Systems
Before a part can be built on the printer, the manufacturing file must be loaded into the printer.
The manufacturing file is generated by
3DXpert
or
ProX DMP Dental
(only for dental application) standalone softwares. By
using the industry-standard .stl file format, the manufacturing file includes a series of sliced cross-sections of the part and all
the manufacturing parameters.
The manufacturing file can be uploaded by:
1 . Ethernet network connection : the printer provides an integrated 10/100-megabit-per-second (Mbps) Ethernet network connection .
This connection supports both the 10base-T and 100base-TX Ethernet standards . The connectors (RJ45 sockets located on the
back panel of the supply cabinet and in front of the main cabinet) are designed for attaching a shielded twisted pair Ethernet cable
(supplied with the printer) .
2 .
USB connection : the printer provides an integrated USB socket. The manufacturing file can be uploaded with a USB key (not
supplied) .
The manufacturing file is then selected from the printer.
Prior to installing the software, ensure that workstation meets the following minimum specifications (next page). The
specifications described represent 3D Systems tested minimum “baseline” configuration for using the software. Although
the software will run on less powerful computers, meeting the minimum recommended configuration will ensure acceptable
performance.
