Work with the 3DGence Material Management System device
When the device is running, the main screen is the main source of information about the running processes. Depending on the
device's hardware configuration (number of chambers), on the main screen each chamber has its own information section
where the chamber number, its status and the current temperature in the chamber can be listed. The following figure shows
the main screen of the MMS device in the idle state - without any heating processes running.

In the 3DGence Material Management System there are four operating modes:
•
Preparation of materials for printing
- the basic mode of operation of the device in which the spool of material is
blown with dried air at an elevated temperature for a preset time. Process parameters are automatically selected
after scanning the TAG of the SMM and placing a spool of material in the machine chamber.
•
Recrystallisation of prints
- a process involving thermal treatment of prints to enable the recrystallisation process of
their microstructure. The print recrystallization process settings can only be accessed when no other processes are
running in the selected chamber.
•
Desiccant cartridge regeneration process
- this process enables the removal of water accumulated in desiccant
cartridges.
•
User-defined process
- In this option, the user has the possibility of defining his/her own temperature and time
parameters in the full range (option additionally payable). Access to the user-defined process settings is only possible
when no other processes are running in the selected chamber.
