4.3 Recommendation: Using external air supply

NOTE:

 The BIO X internal air supply provides up to 200 kPa of pressure. We recommend using 

an external air supply with the Thermoplastic Printhead due to the high viscosity of thermoplastic 

materials.  

NOTE:

 Inconsistent prints can indicate internal air reservoir exhaustion. In these cases, an external 

air supply is recommended.

NOTE:

 The maximum pressure that the BIO X can withstand is 700 kPa whether you use an 

external pump, building air supply or compressed air tank. Contact [email protected] and we 

can recommend the best connection for your pressure source. Always place a secondary regulator 

between the system and the external air supply to protect the valves from pressure spikes beyond 

the recommended limit of 700 kPa. 

1.  Connect the external air supply to the BIO X through the pneumatic connector on the back of 

the device. The connector requires a 4-mm air tube (Figure 6).
