1.4 How the 3D Printing System Works

Technology's patented 3DP
Importing a solid 3D modeling file into the 3DPrint Software
Setting up your files to print in the 3DPrint Software
Printing the part
Drying the part, emptying the build bed, and removal of excess PXL Core material
Cleaning and servicing the printer
(Optional) Applying post-processing materials to the printed part
To start, the 3DPrint Software takes a three-dimensional design file, (3DPrint is compatible with most 3D
modeling software files) and converts it into cross-sections, or layers, that are between 0.0035" - 0.004"
(0.089 - 0.102 mm) thick. Before printing, 3DPrint evaluates the part geometry and checks if there are
enough materials in the printer to print the number of layers required to build the part. If there are, the
printer then prints each layer, one after the other, from the bottom of the part to the top. If not, 3DPrint will
prompt you to add Core, to add binder, or to change a print head before it will start the print job.
