Blade Removal and Installation
Off-line Temperature
Resin Handling
The RDM allows the user to change resin and start the next build within ten minutes, with no tools
and no user protection needed. Gloves, however, may be required to detach the Zephyr recoater
blade. This new handling method ensures that all parts that come into contact with resin under
normal operation must be a part of the active RDM. Parts on other modules may inadvertently
come into contact with resin, but provisions for managing that particular contact are in place; the
user does not need to worry about such contact.
The RDM allows the user, via a screen, to strain the debris that inevitably accumulates in the
machine so that it can be removed in a similar manner to the removal of build platforms. It also
removes the higher viscosity resin that settles on the bottom of the delivery module, circulates the
resin to help prevent gel formation, and stirs the resin to achieve uniform viscosity.
Table 1 lists the required build envelopes that represent all RDM and platform elevator
configurations that the Viper Pro supports. Each RDM and platform elevator design minimizes
the amount of resin that the Viper Pro requires. The center of the build area for each RDM aligns
as closely as possible to the central scanning axis of the image projection module:
