Initial commissioning
After set-up has been completed the further commissioning of the HT500 takes place at the
web
interface
and the touchscreen as described in the
Operating Manual
.
Decommissioning
Decommissioning may be necessary on two occasions: the temporary decommissioning if the 3D
Printer will just be out of operation for a limited time (e.g. moving) or the permanent
decommissioning if the 3D Printer has expired its lifetime and will be scrapped.
Temporary decommissioning
If you need to take the HT500 out of operation to move or store it, regard the following information:
Remove remaining filament from the supply system.
Clean
the 3D Printer, especially the extruder nozzles.
Move all axes into their
home positions
.
Disconnect the mains cable and the network cable. Store them together with the 3D Printer
(e.g. fixed with adhesive tape inside the build chamber).
Protect the print table surface and the touchscreen with a cardboard pad against scratching.
Secure the extruder head, the print table, and the build chamber doors with strapping tape tape
against moving (see
Transport
).
Position the 3D Printer on a transport pallet and cover it with a plastic tarpaulin or air cushion
foil.
NOTICE
Do not cover the 3D Printer with a textile sheet since the fibers may enter the supply system and clog
the nozzles after recommissioning. Use lint-free plastic sheets only.
Use lashing straps to secure the 3D Printer on the transport pallet.
Permanent decommissioning
If you do not want to use the HT500 any longer or if it is damaged beyond repair:
Take the HT500 out of operation as
described
above
.
Drain the cooling system and collect the
