Setup And Print The Build
2 Setup And Print The Build
This section will briefly introduce you to using 3DPrint to get your part ready to build. Then it will show you
how to get your ProJet x60 ready and actually print your part. For all the details on using 3D Print, refer to
the 3DPrint User Manual.
2.1 Install 3D Print
If 3DPrint has not been installed, you will first need to install it. Installation instructions are available in the
3DPrint User Manual. Be sure to install the software on the same computer that is connected to your 3D
Printer. Also be sure you use the version of 3DPrint that came with your ProJet x60 system.
If you encounter any problems during installation, please contact your local Service Provider or Reseller, or
visit the Support section of our Web site at 3dscentral.3dsystems.com.
2.2 Open A Part In 3D Print
1. Launch the 3DPrint Software.
2. In the Open dialog, select a file to print, or browse to a file on your computer. Click the Open button, or
double click on a file to open it in 3D Print.
2.2.1 3DPrint Main Window
After the file is opened, the part will be displayed on the 3DPrint Main Window. Here it will be shown in a
3D View on the right, and 2-D views on the left showing a top view and a side view. See the 3DPrint User
Manual for a complete description of the Main Window and its features and toolbars.
2.2.2 Part Orientation, Strength, and Printing Speed
How the part is oriented in the build volume will have an effect on the strength of the part before infiltration.
Orientation - and placement (location) on the build platform - will also impact the speed at which the build
completes.
For details on placing and orienting your part using 3D Print, refer to the 3DPrint User Manual.
