regulatory requirements and laws, particularly those that relate to usage of hazardous chemicals, UV radiation, and
disposal of regulated material. The printer complies with CE requirements.
NOTE: You are responsible for determining whether additional supplies and equipment are necessary
according to local, state, federal or other regulatory laws that govern your location.
FabPro/NextDent material Usage
Print materials in the liquid state require use of surgical-type 100% nitrile gloves and other equipment to protect the
user from direct contact with uncured print material. In general, material is fully cured only after adequate exposure
in the LC-3DPrint Box or other similar UV oven. Only after being fully cured do the parts no longer require protective
gloves to handle. The LC-3DPrint Box has been designed especially for NextDent materials. As such, you must use
the LC-3DPrint Box in order to achieve medical certi cation of your parts printed with NextDent material.
Material Disposal
FabPro and NextDent print materials are regulated and, as such, are subject to disposal requirements by your local,
federal, or other regulatory agencies. Follow applicable disposal guidelines. Contact a local waste management
company for recommendations on disposal requirements that affect your facility.
If your area requires regulated waste disposal, consult with and retain a waste-management company to
periodically pick up regulated waste. Your local waste management company may recommend that you set up a
dedicated waste container to dispose of liquid material and of any materials (such as paper towels or gloves) that
may have come into contact with the uncured liquid material.
After nal part curing in the LC-3DPrint Box, fully cured printed parts may be disposed of in regular trash
receptacles.
NOTE: Inspect printed parts after curing in the LC-3DPrint Box to ensure they are fully solidi ed. Part-
surface tackiness and visible areas of liquid material indicate the part is not fully cured.
Storage and Usage Guidelines
Always wear appropriate safety equipment, such as 100% nitrile gloves when handling uncured liquid material.
Protect your body from any direct contact with uncured liquid FabPro/NextDent material.
Always read the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) prior to use of any print material.
Always use the oldest print material rst. All materials have a shelf life that is listed on its bottle. Using the oldest
material rst helps you to use all your purchased materials within that period of time. The expiration date of a material
will be printed on its bottle.
During storage, shield the print material from sunlight or other sources of UV radiation, such as uorescent or mercury
vapor lights. Exposing the material to UV radiation increases product viscosity and chance for polymerization, and may
make the print material unsuitable for part building. Storing material above the maximum recommended temperature
can also make the material unsuitable for part building.
Store containers of FabPro or NextDent materials indoors between 18°C-28°C (64.4°F-82.4°F). Storing material at
conditions below 18°C or above 28°C could render the material unusable for part building.
