Processing using the
“Run Stored Profile”
(Recommended Option)
1. From the main menu use the
UP or Down
buttons until the
“Run Stored Profile” is displayed then press the enter button.
2. Next use the
UP/DOWN
buttons until profile you wish to run
s displayed.
3. After selecting the profile the display will show the profile name.
Pressing
ENTER
will scroll between profile name, melt tempera-
ture, melt time and hold time. It is recommended to check the
setting before starting a profile.
4. Press the
START
button and the machine will begin running the
profile. If the machine is at room temperature, it will take approxi-
mately 15 minutes to reach the processing temperature.
5. Prepare the cartridge by scoring
a “+” using a utility knife.
See the illustration to the right. This will
create an even “Burst” of the cartridge
6. Next, coat the sides of the cartridge
with a light coat of release compound.
This will prevent the cartridge from sticking
to the walls of the heating chamber.
7. When the
myerson
Flexpress
has calibrated itself at the Melt
Temp an alarm will sound and the upper display will read
“LOAD”
signaling you to load the cartridge. At this time insert the cartridge
into the heating chamber, center the flask and tighten using the
flask strap and knobs. If you are not ready to start the profile at
this time and want to turn off the alarm, press the UP button.
This will silence the alarm, but the myerson
Flexpress
™ will
remain calibrated until you press
START
or put the unit in standby
by pressing the STBY button.
8. Press the
START
button to begin the profile. Now let the
myerson
Flexpress
™ do the rest. The unit will begin counting down the
Melt Time and once it expires the unit will automatically inject the
material into the flask. The piston will stay in the up position for
the duration of the Hold time then release.
9. The upper display will read
“DONE”
.
10. You can now remove the flask strap and knobs.
11. Grasp the flask using heat resistant gloves and press the
EXTEND/RETRACT
button. This will extend the piston and
push out the remaining cartridge attached to the flask.
