The door includes an interlock system that is designed to automatically pause heating and extinguish the cure lights when the door is open.
• LED modules The Digital Cure uses LED modules to expose printed parts to a mix of 385 nm, 395 nm, and 470 nm light during post-curing. Refer to section 6.4.2 Maintaining the light diffusers for more information.
