Loading material from a bulk supply to a material loading tank
The HP Jet Fusion 3D Material Unloading Kit can be used to move material from the bulk supply to the material
loading tanks, by way of the processing station. It consists of a nozzle connected to a hose. The hose is
connected to an inlet in the processing station and the nozzle is immersed in the bulk supply.
Take these considerations into account so that the site is prepared to place a bulk supply and fill up the material
loading tanks:
The bulk supply should be located at least 2 m (79 in) away from any electronic equipment, including the
●
processing station and any material loading tanks.
The material unloading kit hose length is 7 m (276 in), so the maximum total distance between the bulk
●
supply and the processing station is less than 7 m.
The bulk supply can be located in any position, always respecting the minimum and maximum distances to
●
the processing station. The space between the bulk supply and the processing station does not need to be
empty, as long as electronic equipment is not used in a radius of 2 m from the bulk supply.
The hose is flexible, so you can choose your preferred routing depending on the site characteristics. Route
●
the hose so that it is not an obstacle for operators working around the machines. Minimize hose bending
for optimal material flow.
● The material unloading kit should be connected only when filling up tanks. During normal operation of the
processing station (unpacking or filling up build units), a continuous connection from the bulk supply to the
processing station is not needed, and it could be removed, saving space.
