2 Description
The Loctite® 3D Printing EQ Washer DW11 is a high-performance wash station
specifically designed and engineered for washing 3D printed parts created using
Loctite 3D Printing resins.
Loctite 3D Printing EQ Washer DW11 is an automatic cleaning unit that users can
place the Loctite PR10 printer build platform directly into the Wash Station, set the
wash time, and initiate the automatic washing of the 3D printed parts. The Loctite®
3D Printing EQ Washer DW11 utilizes a rotating impeller to circulate the cleaner
bidirectionally to achieve maximum cleaning. A universal wash basket is also
provided for loose parts if a Loctite build head is not used.
Loctite 3D Printing EQ Washer DW11 is a 2-bath process used in conjunction with
Loctite Cleaner C. The first bath contains the Loctite Cleaner and the second bath
contains DI water for a final rinse. Each bath has an individual timer setting for
optimizing cleaning and rinsing times. At the start of the cycle, the build head or
basket is automatically lowered into the bath and cleaning begins. At the end of the
cycle the build head or basket is automatically removed from the bath. The build
platform or basket is manually moved to the second bath for automatic rinsing.
Washer DW11 also provides cleaner’s pot life timer which can be set based on
individual application parameters. The timer will remind users when it is time to
change the cleaner bath.
