Removing 3D Prints After Printing
When printing is completed, you should allow the 3D prints to cool as much as
possible before handling them. If additional 3D prints do not have to be
produced on the printer, it is best to let the 3D prints cool in the printer, with the
cover closed, as long as possible.
If the printer must be used to produce additional 3D prints as soon as
possible:
1. Let the 3D prints cool on the build tray for at least 10 minutes.
2. Put on protective gloves .
Warning:
Wear protective gloves when handling 3D prints before they are washed.
3. Very carefully, remove the 3D prints from the tray with a scraper or spatula
Warning: Sharp Object Hazard
Directing the scraper toward body parts can result in injury. When removing
the parts, always push the scraper away from you.
4. Place the 3D prints on a flat surface, and cover them with a cardboard box
5. Let the 3D prints cool for several hours.
Removing the Support Material
After the 3D prints have cooled, the support material must be removed. This
can be done by different methods, depending on the type of support material,
the size of the 3D print, how delicate it is, the amount and location of the
support material, and other factors. The methods described in this section refer
to removing general-purpose support materials from 3D prints, for most
printing applications. Use this information as a guide, and adapt the methods
(or a combination of them) for cleaning your 3D prints.
For special printing applications, refer to documents on the
Support Center

or paper hood.
This allows them to cool slowly and evenly.
