Final Test

1.
Check the XY gantry belt tensions for the material/oven temperature being used. Adjust
if necessary. (See
2.
Install all external system panels. (See
3.
Perform the PPU/Scaling Calibration. (See
4.
Build the Installation Test Part. (Build Job > Show Sample JobQueue.. >
Ins_Test_"Loaded Material".) Analysis of the completed part can be used to confirm
proper system operation.
Some part curl is expected on the model until support material is
removed from the underside (most pronounced with PC-ABS
material).
Do not submerse a model created using soluble supports in a
cleaning tank until after the support material on the topside of the
model has been examined.

Check for material overfill.
• Strings of material ('hairs') around pins (large or small set)
indicates overfill.
• An improper surface finish on diagonals or spokes indicates
overfill.
Raster angle will cause some differences in surface finish and
appearance from diagonal-to-diagonal or spoke-to-spoke.
Check quality of support material build
• Support material should not display gaps or open areas.
• Support material should correctly bond with base layer on top
side of model.
• Support material around the perimeter edge should be
smooth.
• For BASS material, layer on underside of model should peel off
easily.
For PPSF, this check must be made before the model has cooled.
