Introduction

The Drying Oven for the Desktop Metal Shop system “crosslinks” the green parts from the printer. This procedure essentially activates and cures the binding agent, and holds the parts together for subsequent post-processing steps.

The oven should be cleaned after every usage of the drying oven, otherwise powder will begin to accumulate and it can become dangerous.
