General Information

The 3D printers can be found inside the Clean Room

If you have any issues with Clean Room equipment, the slack channels associated with this space include: #general, ##general, #shop-3d-printing, and #shop-laser.

Orientation

The order of this document is to give some basic information of what will happen in the Clean Room during the training. This orientation assumes that they have gone through our general space orientation.

Do not operate any power equipment if you are under the influence of anything, in a hurry, are tired, or are not feeling well.

Inspect the equipment before using it.

Equipment

Bamboo 3D Printer

During the Orientation, you will be walked through the steps to set up and complete a print on the bamboo 3D Printer. 

Printing with one color:

  • Members will go through some various 3D print websites and pick/download a design that you want to 3D print.
  • Members will unload any previous filament in the machine, and add your preferred filament into the machine through the small white tube sticking out the back of the machine.
  • Members will click load on the machine, and the machine should heat up, and purge the old filament. Make sure to check that the filament has been purged by looking at where it sticks out inside the machine.
  • Open Bamboo studio and add your print.
  • Look to make sure the plate in your machine, and the filament type matches what is put in Bamboo Studios.
  • Make sure you have the infill you want selected.
  • Add any necessary supports to the piece.
  • Slice the Plate, you should get an estimated time that the print will take.
  • Hit Print.
  • Stay with the print for the first few layers, to hopefully catch any early errors (You can click stop or pause when you notice these errors).
  • Afterwards remove your print and get rid of the filament that has been purged onto the plate while the machine was preparing.
