V-ONE USER MANUAL
Safety
The V-One is a precision tool for electronics prototyping. As with any such equipment, the V-One
and the accompanying materials and accessories should be handled with care.
Please review the following material to ensure a safe work environment and to maintain optimal
machine performance.
The V-One is not only an excellent tool for the seasoned electrical engineer but it is also a great
way to teach electronics. Never leave the V-One unattended while in use and supervise young
and inexperienced users to ensure safe operation.
The V-One is for use as-is. Any modications to the machine or improper use without explicit
approval and direction from Voltera may damage the machine, may cause bodily harm, and will
void your warranty.
In case of emergency or prior to performing any maintenance, please ensure power cable is
disconnected from the V-One.

Printing Platform
The heated bed is a multipurpose heater with a maximum temperature of 240°C
that is used to dry printing materials and reow solder paste. When the heater is
on, the LEDs on either side of the V-One will glow red. While the LEDs are red, the
printing platform is unsafe to touch and can cause burns. Remove any combustible
materials from the area unsafe to touch and can cause burns. Remove any
combustible materials from the area when heater is in use.
Printing Materials
The V-One comes with 2 mL cartridges of printing material: conductive ink and
solder paste. Do not ingest and keep these materials away from mouth and eyes.
Be sure to wash hands well with soap and water before eating or drinking after
handling.
The conductive ink is a combustible liquid and must be kept away from heat/sparks/
open ames/hot surfaces. No smoking. In case of re, suitable extinguishing agents
are: CO2, powder or water spray. Fight larger res with water spray or alcohol-
resistant foam.
Please refer to the MSDS at voltera.io/msds for detailed information on proper
handling and disposal procedures.
Sharp Tools
The accessories included with the V-One contain sharp tools such as the probe and
dispensing nozzles. Always keep the tip caps on the probe and the dispenser while
not in use to prevent damage to the equipment and accidental injury.
Moving Parts
The V-One is an electromechanical device with motors, gears, and belts. Keep ngers
away from moving parts.

Protect the Probe
The probe is an essential accessory for dispensing. To ensure optimal performance:
Cleaning the V-One
Wet conductive ink can generally be wiped off using a paper towel or tissue. If inks get on
your skin, wash thoroughly with soap and warm water. Before handling the materials, be
sure to refer to the material safety data sheets available at voltera.io/msds.
Dried conductive ink that has not been baked can be cleaned by applying a small amount
of isopropyl alcohol and rubbing with a paper towel.
Conductive ink that has been baked is much more difcult to remove. Apply isopropyl
alcohol to a burnishing pad and rub vigorously. Repeat until the ink has been removed.
Using sharp tools to remove the ink may result in damage to the surface below or injury.
The V-One uses several limit switches for self calibration. To ensure optimal performance,
clean these switches regularly with a cotton swab and isopropyl alcohol. Failure to do so
may result in poor dispensing quality and broken nozzles. It is recommended to perform
cleaning before starting a workow to avoid calibration errors.
Transporting the V-One
When moving the V-One, do so by lifting by the base with two hands. Avoid lifting the
machine by the bridge. For long distance transportation or shipping, it is recommended to
store the V-One upright in the original packaging to avoid any damage during travel.
Replacement Fuse
In the event of a blown fuse in the power inlet, contact technical support as a blown fuse
may be a symptom of a more serious issue. Use the table below to select a suitable
replacement.
Replacement Power Cable
Please check the product label on the back of the V-One before using the table below to
select a suitable replacement.
• Do not drop the probe or attempt to disassemble it.
• Ensure the probe is in a safe place with the cap securely in place when it is not in use.
• Ensure the contact pads on the probe cap are clean. If necessary, use a cotton swab and
use isopropyl alcohol to clean them.
