Adding your STL file to the pack:
The
Add to Pack
button is found on the General, Orientation and Pack tabs.
When you click on the
Add to Pack
button, CatalystEX will add the file that is currently in the
preview window (General tab or Orientation tab) to the pack preview window (Pack tab).
If the file in the preview window has not been processed for printing, processing will occur before
the file is added to the pack. Each additional click of the
Add to Pack
button will add another copy
of the file to the pack.
Printing your STL file:
The
button is found on the General, Orientation and Pack tabs.
CatalystEX will now process all parts in the pack and create a CMB file from which the printer will
print the parts.
Inserting a Modeling Base
Prior to inserting a modeling base into the tray, remove any material buildup on and behind the Z
Platform and around the lead screw. Failure to do so could cause the modeling base to be unlevel
or, if the amount of buildup is large enough, the Z Platform could jam at its upper limit.
Install the modeling base. See
“Insert Modeling Base” on page
20.
Building a part
If a part has not been sent to your printer for building, the build queue will be empty. If the build
queue is empty the display panel will show
Idle
or
Ready to build
.
Choose whether or not you want to start a build from a remote location or from the display panel at
the printer.
Starting a build from a remote location:
The lower display will show
Wait for Part
and it will be flashing.
1.
From the display panel press
Wait for Part
. The display will ask
Is Model Base Installed?
2.
Insert a modeling base.
3.
Press
Yes. Waiting for Part
will now be on the display.
4.
From your CatalystEX workstation, send a part to the printer. The printer will automatically start
to build the part. See
“Processing your STL file for printing” on page
26
for detailed
instructions.
CAUTION:
DO NOT reuse modeling bases. If a modeling base is reused,
calibration errors, poor part quality, and loss of extrusion may occur.
Additional modeling bases are available from your reseller.
