Fusion3 EDGE: Affordable Industrial 3D Printer

INDUSTRIAL 3D PRINTER ALTERNATIVE

Until now, owning an industrial 3D printer required an initial capital outlay of $50,000 to $100,000. In addition, expect between $5,000 to $10,000 of annual expense for service contracts and a limited selection of expensive 3D printing materials for upwards of $200 per kilogram that otherwise would be purchased on the open market for $25 to $100 per kilogram, depending on the type of material.

Few businesses and educational institutions can afford a single industrial 3D printer at this price, much less be able to purchase additional 3D printers to expand their capacity for multiple users.

The Fusion3 EDGE, the affordable alternative to expensive industrial 3D printers, delivers or exceeds most of the capabilities of industrial 3D printers at a fraction of the price ($6,999 USD + Shipping).

PRINTING ON THE EDGE (NORMAL OPERATION)

steps and what to expect when printing using EDGE

SUMMARY
There are 11 key steps to start printing on EDGE:

Slice your part in REACTOR
Transfer . gcode file to EDGE
Load filament
Preparation of the bed
Launch of print
The start of the start of the print EDGE
Providing the correct first layer
Print process
sequence of seal EDGE
Removal of the finished part from Edge
Cleaning after printing

YOUR PART IN THE REACTOR
Basic steps:

Export the CAD file in . STL file
Load this into REACTOR
Customize your parameters and settings in REACTOR (material, quality preset, etc.)
Generate .gcode
Preview/verify .gcode
Save .gcode file

For more information, see:

REACTOR User's Guide for specific instructions on how to slice a file with REACTOR.

"Using REACTOR with EDGE" module.

STEP 2: TRANSFER YOUR. GCODE FILE TO EDGE
There are two ways to transfer the .gcode file to EDGE:

If Edge is on your local network

Download the EDGE user interfaces to your computer by navigating to its IP address with a web browser.
Make sure the main door is closed.
Press the START PRINT button on the main screen.
In the file selection dialog, click "LOAD PRINT" in the upper right corner.
In the dialog box that opens, navigate to where the .gcode file is saved on your computer. Select it and click "Open". nine0021
The file will be loaded and will appear in the file list.
DO NOT select it for printing; we have to prepare the printer itself!

Manual USB Transfer
If your network does not have EDGE or you do not want to use the network interface:

Find a USB flash drive and insert it into your computer. Transfer your .gcode file to it.
SAFELY REMOVE the flash drive and transfer it to the USB port on the front of the EDGE below the LCD screen. nine0021
THIS IS ALL until we have the printer ready to print.

STEP 3: LOAD THE FILA
See the Loading Filament section of the Quick Start Guide for details on how to load filament into EDGE. Make sure the material you upload IS MATCHING the .gcode file you created! For example, don't load PLA if you've cut for ABS.

STEP 4: PREPARE THE PRINT PLATFORM
See Cleaning and Preparing the Platform in the quick guide for details on how to prepare the print platform. Make sure the bed you have installed on the EDGE and its preparation (glass + glue, glass + magic, flexible, etc.) matches the requirements of the material you are using and the settings of your REACTOR. nine0003

STEP 5: START PRINTING

Make sure the main door is closed.
From the main screen, press the START PRINT button.
A file selection dialog will appear. Scroll through the file list to find the file you want to print.
1. Thumbnails show what your prints look like.
2. Use the "SORT BY" button in the upper right corner to sort files by name or creation date. The latter will put your latest file first, making it easier to find. nine0021
3. A long press on a file will bring up additional options.
Select the file you want to print. Press "YES" to confirm that you want to start printing immediately.
The printer will start printing.

STEP 6: START PRINT SEQUENCE
At the start of each print, the printer performs the following steps:

Bed Warmer: The bed is heated to the set temperature. Nothing else will happen until the bed warms up to the right temperature. You will see the bed temperature sensor pulsing orange to indicate that it is warming up and the user interface will advance to the print progress screen. For ABS or other high temperature materials, it may take up to 20 minutes for the platform to heat up for the first time. nine0021
Home axes: Once the platform is warm, the printer will home the Z, Y, and X axes in that order.
Platform Leveling, Nozzle Offset, Printhead Heat: EDGE will perform a calibration routine that cleans the printhead, checks for nozzle offset, and checks the platform level. During this sequence, the print head heats up. Stay tuned for status updates and information about what the printer is doing on the screen.
Prime Printhead: After bed sensing is completed, the printhead will move to the front left corner, extrude some filament into free air to prime the extruder, and then start printing. nine0021

NOTE:

The print pause feature is not available until EDGE has started printing your part.
If you have enabled fast turn mode, the print start sequence bypasses platform alignment and nozzle offset checks to speed up print start. Instead, the axes return to their original position, a single probe is made in the center of the platform, then the print head heats up to start printing.

STEP 7: DURING THE FIRST LAYER

IMPORTANT:
We STRONGLY recommend that you ALWAYS control the print start sequence and print the first layer. Most printing failures are due to problems in the first layer that are not detected and corrected in a timely manner. To ensure the success of your print, you must evaluate the following during the first print layer:

Filament Fill and Wipe:
The printer will push a piece of filament over the bed, then move down and "wipe" the print head from left to right. Sometimes this filament gets stuck in the print head and is drawn into the print. In this case, stop printing and remove it from the print head using needle nose pliers or the like. nine0003

First layer height:
Check that the height of the first layer is correct. You can do this by checking the perimeter "skirt" lines the printer will make around the outline of your part. Look at the photo how they should look.

The first layer is TOO close. STOP PRINTING, fix, try again:

First layer too close, but printing can continue:

First layer of goldilocks - just right:

First layer TOO FAR. Stop printing, correct, try again:

If you are unsure of the height of your first layer from the skirt line, you can also look at the infill pattern. See photos above for examples If the height of the first layer is wrong, use the Babystepping buttons to adjust it. For more information on Babystepping, see the Bed Leveling module.

Sticking to the bed

Make sure that the entire first layer is firmly attached to the bed. If you see a corner or other part lifting or peeling off, stop printing. Check the following:

Your slicer settings and loaded material match
The surface of your bed matches the material (glass, flexible material, etc. )
The cover of your bed matches the material (glue stick, magic, nothing, etc.)
Your bed cover is fresh and applied to a clean, cold (<40°C) bed.

STEP 8: DURING PRINTING

NOTE:
If you open the main door while printing, the printer will automatically pause printing for safety reasons. To resume printing, close the main door and select Resume on the control panel. nine0003

Pause, resume, cancel printing:
To pause printing, press PRINT PAUSE on the control panel or open the main door.

To resume printing, close the main door and press RESUME PRINTING on the control panel. While printing is paused, you will receive additional options on the control panel to change filament or cancel printing.

When printing is paused:

The print head will be turned off
The bed will remain hot
The motors will remain energized

When you resume printing, nothing will appear to be happening while the print head is warming up. The longer printing has been paused, the longer it will take.

STEP 9: END PRINT
When printing is complete, the printer will move the head to the rear left corner and move the platform all the way down.

If quick start mode is off (default), the bed will turn off and start to cool down. nine0021
If you have turned on the quick turn mode, the bed will remain hot.

For high temperature materials (ABS, PC, PC-PBT, etc.), the door can be left closed until the bed has cooled down. This helps the part to cool more evenly and reduces the likelihood of it warping once removed from the bed.

STEP 10: REMOVE THE READY PRINT
If you have enabled quick turn mode, you will need to remove the printable surface from the printer to allow it to cool as the platform remains hot. For details on deleting parts, see the Deleting a Finished Part module. nine0003

In general:

If quick turn mode is off (default), it is not necessary to remove the glass.
Allow the bed to cool to <40°C before attempting to remove the part.
1. For PLA, remove as soon as possible; the longer the part is on the bed, the stronger the bond becomes.
Try running the part scraper at the corner or edge of the part and gradually remove more of the part.
If you find you need more than a couple pounds of strength, STOP. Using brute force to separate parts may result in printer damage, personal injury, broken glass panels, and broken/deformed printouts. nine0021
Thermal shock the loose part instead (see above for recommended procedure).

STEP 11: CLEANING AFTER PRINTING

Remove the primer stitch and print the skirt from the bed.
(Glass surface) Clean applied coating, if present, with water. For best results, do not coat more than 1 print.
(Flexible surfaces) Wipe the surface with alcohol. nine0021
Do not recoat until you are ready to reprint. In other words, don't prepare your bed and then leave it for a week while you're not using it.

See Cleaning and preparing the bed in the quick guide for more information.

D Group & TOP 3D Shop22 OVOZHIS FISTRA EDGE: affordable industrial 3D printer - 3D printing with refractory materials Hello! Top 3D Shop is with you and in the next review we are talking about the Fusion3 EDGE 3D printer. The American company Fusion3 introduced a new generation EDGE 3D printer in early 2022. The novelty is based on the F-Series kinematics [f-siriz], which is an improved version of the classic CoreXY kinematics [core-x-y].

The Fusion3 EDGE is an affordable industrial-grade 3D printer designed for low to mid-volume production and high-volume, high-speed printing using refractory filaments. The range of consumables includes polycarbonate, polypropylene, nylon, TPU, as well as reinforced composites. Brand new Fusion3 EDGE components include ANVIL's proprietary print head based on an in-house developed extruder, improved build leveling system, reinforced belts, precision linear guides and stepper motors to improve print speed and quality at the same time. Fusion3 EDGE is a rigid aluminum construction that reduces vibrations and thus guarantees fast and high-quality printing. The ANVIL print head combines a branded extruder as well as its own know-how - instead of the usual interchangeable nozzles, it uses a surgical steel tube. This solution provides faster print speeds and improved wear resistance for highly abrasive composite materials. The maximum working temperature is 320 degrees, and the print speed for some materials reaches 250 millimeters per second.
