Pallets

The substrates must be applied on the pallets. Depending on the substrate size, different pallets must
be used. By default pallets with format 40x80cm made of aluminum in honeycomb structure and a
thickness of 17mm are used. The maximum allowed pallet weight is 4kg.
Exceeding the maximum allowed weight of the pallets would increase the
dynamic load to the machine and can cause material damage. The maximum
weight of the pallets must be observed.
Only pallets provided by MHM must be used for production.

Description
Push button located at the main control panel. In case of emergency,
pressing the EMERGENCY STOP will stop all movements of the
machine. The function of the push button is cancelled by unlocking the
switch (turning it to the right).
Yellow/black bars located at the right and the left of the 'load/unload'
area. Pressing any one of these bars will result in an immediate
EMERGENCY STOP of the machine. The location of these bars
ensures that the EMERGENCY STOP function is activated
automatically should a person become trapped between print station

The safety cable blocks the danger zone between two print stations.
When the cable is disconnected, an immediate EMERGENCY STOP is
activated.
