Dmp System Response If An Interlock Fails; Limited Access And Barrier Shielding - 3D Systems ProX DMP 200 User Manual

DMP System Response if an Interlock Fails

Safety interlock devices mounted on the DMP system sense the hazardous operating conditions below. The DMP system
takes the actions listed when an interlock fails.
SAFETY INTERLOCKED CONDITION
• For all conditions
• Front doors open
• Scanner head open
• Airlock door open
• E-Stop
• Oxygen in process chamber too high

Limited Access and Barrier Shielding

DMP equipment frame and enclosure designs limit access to the following:
• Service areas, such as cabinets and enclosures for electrical power and automation controls. This prevents accidental
exposure to electrical shock hazards.
• Material areas, such as material feed hoppers. This prevents:
• burn hazards by minimizing exposure to heated material
• slip hazards by preventing material from spilling onto the floor
• fire hazards by minimizing airborne dust cloud formation and potential ignition. See SDS for complete material
hazard details.
• Laser beam optics and scanning areas, including the fully-enclosed print head—where the laser beam originates—
and the interior of the print chamber, into which the beam projects. The scan head and chamber are designed to mini-
mize hazards such as burns, eye injury, and fire in the following ways:
• The scan head optics and laser beam duct (at the top of the chamber) prevents the laser beam from being aimed
outside the print chamber.
• The fully enclosed chamber blocks laser radiation from escaping to the outside.
• The material of the chamber window, which conforms to CE EN207, also blocks laser radiation so you can safely
observe the part during a print.
