Build unit weight (empty)
Material loading tank (empty)
CAUTION:
Take into account the weight of the material supply you intend to use.
NOTE:
Take into account that the build unit will be inserted inside the processing station while unpacking and
loading material. Therefore, you must consider the sum of both weights inside the same footprint when the
build unit is inserted.
NOTE:
If you follow the recommendation to keep the printer, the processing station, and the build unit in the
same room, then the load-bearing characteristics of the floor must be sufficient withstand the weight of all three
devices when loaded.

Floor surface

The floor surface should have the following characteristics:
Flat and horizontal
Solid, smooth, and level
HP recommends Ff > 20 and Fl > 20, measured according to ASTM E1155M, to ensure that the floor is
sufficiently flat and level. Otherwise the processing station could malfunction.
No holes or indentations
Static-free surface
Easy to clean
ESD-free
Floor leakage resistance should be below 100 MΩ.
In many factory environments the conventional flooring materials, such as bare concrete or steel grids, are
adequately conductive.
In order to remain effective, the floor should not be covered by insulating paint, rubber mats, or plastic
sheets; care should be taken to prevent the build-up of contaminants such as resin or other insulating
substances; and its resistance should be regularly checked.
Durable
Non-combustible
Free from floor vibration: for example, floor vibration is likely near a railway station, press machine room,
construction site, or heavy industry. If such vibration cannot be avoided, suitable floor preconditioning to
mitigate vibration may be needed for optimal performance.
NOTE:
The floor surface over which the build unit will move between the printer and the processing station
should have the same characteristics: it should be horizontal, free of steps, holes, and indentations, smooth to
avoid transport vibrations, and far from any obstacle that might cause accidental shocks. It is vital to avoid
damage to the contents of the build unit, both when it is full of fresh material and also after printing. Move the
build unit slowly and with care.
