ProJet x60Pro Series User Guide ProJet x60Pro® Series Overview
Debris Separator - Located in the Build Chamber. Its function is to prevent chunks or particles from going
back into the printer Feeder during any vacuuming operation.
Deck - Area surrounding the Build Bed.
Feeder - Printer component that stores PXL Core. Core that is vacuumed up after a build, or Core that is
manually emptied from the Build Bed, is recycled and returned to the Feeder for reuse.
Fast Axis - Printer component that houses the Carriage and the Fast Axis rails on which the Carriage
moves. The Fast Axis moves on the Slow Axis rails which are housed beneath the Build Chamber Deck.
Infiltration - Process of applying various post-processing products (resins, wax, epoxy, etc.) to fully
cleaned parts to give them specific properties such as strength and durability.
LCD - Liquid Crystal Display.
Platform - The metal plate in the Build Bed. The platform (or Build Platform) can be raised or lowered by
selecting the appropriate command on the printer LCD menu.
Pogo Pins - Gold contact pins for the print head contacts. Clean the Pogo Pins with an alcohol swab
whenever a print head is removed, cleaned, or replaced.
Print Head - There are five HP11 Print Heads for the ProJet 660Pro and 860Pro. These print heads print
the pattern of the part by squirting tiny drops of PXL binder onto the PXL Core material. When a new HP11
print head is installed, the printer runs an automatic purge cycle to clean the print head of its ink and to pre-
pare it for dispensing binder. Note: Only HP11 model C4810A Black cartridges can be used.
Print Head Contacts - The contact points on a print head cartridge that match up with the Pogo Pins.
Purge - Process of removing ink from the HP11 print head to prepare it for dispensing PXL binder.
Service Station - Cleans the print head jets to remove residue that accumulates during printing. It is
extremely important to clean the Service Station after every build to remove residue buildup. If the Service
Station is not clean, your print head will not get properly cleaned and this will result in shortened print head
life.
Waste Tray - Absorbs the binder waste and will require changing only when you are prompted to in 3D
Print. Located at the bottom rear of the printer after removing the rear panel.
