1. Safety
1.1. Printing Material
The printing material of AccuFab printer is a photo-polymerized resin material independently developed by
SHINING 3D. The resin solution is stable, safe, and no substances harmful to the human body were found in the test,
but direct contact with skin may cause adverse irritating reactions. During use, operators should strictly follow of the
Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) instructions for each material.
1.2. Emergency Measures
Direct skin contact may cause skin irritation dermatitis. During use, operators should wear rubber oil-resistant
disposable gloves.
⚫Skin contact: Take off contaminated clothing and wash skin thoroughly with soap and clean water.
⚫Eye contact: Open the upper and lower eyelids immediately, rinse with running clean water or normal
saline for at least 15 minutes, and seek medical attention.
⚫Ingestion: Rinse mouth and drink water immediately, induce vomiting, perform lavage and seek medical
attention.
Note:
For resin material contact and leakage hazard treatment, please refer to the latest Material Safety Data Sheet
(MSDS) or call the National Chemical Accident Emergency Response Hotline.
Warning:
No smoking, eating, or drinking in the workplace. Keep the resin solvent properly and keep it away from children.
1.3. Light Source
⚫During the printer and post-curing box device operation, the light source emits light with a wavelength of
405 nm, which is harmful to your eyes. Please avoid direct contact.
⚫Do not open the chamber door during printing.
1.4. Alcohol (Ethanol) Solvent
⚫Alcohol solvent is a flammable and explosive chemical. Please store in a cool and ventilated environment,
and keep the bottle cap of the container closed. Keep away from children.
⚫Alcohol solvent is used as the recommended solution to clean the liquid resin (the recommended
concentration is 95% or above) for post-processing of the printed parts of AccuFab.
⚫Wear disposable gloves when treating parts and surfaces with alcohol or uncured resin. Avoid direct skin
contact.
1.5. Sharp Accessories
AccuFab 3D printer accessories include sharp tools such as flat-headed tweezers, cleaning shovels, and utility
knives. Personal safety protection is required when using these tools for model stripping and support removal.
1.6. Electromagnetic Interference
Electromagnetic, produced by AccuFab 3D printer and Fab Cure post-curing box products during operation, has
passed CE/FCC standard test and is complied with Class A digital device limits, and will not cause harm to the human
body.
