CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
The INKREDIBLE 3D Bioprinter is coated with a chemical resistant coating. It can be sprayed
with chlorine or ethanol in order to sterilize the surface.
It is advised to lubricate the axis once in a month to ensure a good functioning of the 3D
bioprinter.
LUBRICATING THE THREADED ROD AND THE X-AXIS
IDLER PULLEY
After approximately 50 hours of build time, you should lubricate the threaded rod on your Z-axis
and the X-axis idler pulley. To lubricate the threaded rod and the idler pulley:
1.
PTFE-based grease can be used to lubricate the INKREDIBLE
2.
Grasp both sides of the build printbed and push it gently to the bottom of the
INKREDIBLE
3.
Use a clean, lint-free rag [or your finger] to spread the grease onto the top section of the
threaded rod.
4.
Make sure you get the grease inside of the threads themselves.
5.
Grasp both sides of the build platform and move it to the top of the INKREDIBLE
6.
Use a clean, lint-free rag [or your finger] to spread the grease onto the bottom section of
the threaded rod. Make sure you get the grease inside of the threads themselves.
7.
Locate the X-axis idler pulley. If you are facing the front of the INKREDIBLE, the idler
pulley is at the top left side. The idler pulley is one of the pulleys that allow the rubber
belt to move the extruder from left to right, or along the X-axis. The pulley at the other
side of the gantry is called the timing pulley and does not require lubrication.
8.
Squeeze a small amount of the grease directly onto the exposed area of the dowel
inside the idler pulley and manually move the pulley back and forth to spread the grease.
