|
| |
|
| With literally thousands of materials to print on the Hyrel Printer, we have broken down the list of materials into logical groups based on their printing temperature and type of head used to print them.
| | At Hyrel, we do things differently. Please get a feel for how Hyrel equipment works with this pdf and with these videos: |
|
| |
|
| A quick intro to many of the functions of a Hyrel printer can be found '''[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwrhV74NjCQ here]'''.

|
| If you are planning on using the heads which photoinitiate crosslinking, make sure you specify the correct wavelength of LED for your material.
| | For more detailed instructions, please continue from '''[http://hyrel3d.net/wiki/index.php/Instructions#Additional_Emulsifiable_Videos this point on the Instrucions page].''' |
|
| |
|
| A standard material printing data sheet has been created for many of the materials that have been internally tested; you can access this data by clicking '''[http://www.hyrel3d.com/materials/ here]'''.
| | == '''Experienced Users Start Here - Compare our Models''' == |
|
| |
|
| Always be sure of what material you are using, and what will be off-gassed.
| | Once you have an idea of how we do things, you should learn more about our different models of printer and our wide array of filament heads, emulsion/paste/liquid heads, laser options, spindle tools, and more. |

| | Our '''[[Repetrel]]''' Software controls all versions of our printers, as well as our in-house CNC machines and other side projects. Most of the features are explained on our '''[[Repetrel]]''' page. |
|
| |
|
| == '''Software and Firmware''' ==
| | To try it for yourself (limited without a Hyrel printer attached), just: |
|
| |
|
| Our equipment runs our proprietary '''[[Repetrel]]''' software and firmware. This was not done to be difficult, but because we didn't want to be restricted by the limitations of other printers. This is how we have the ability to adjust things like the Z position and material flow rate during a print. For a more in-depth look, please see the '''[[Repetrel]]''' page. To download and install, please see the '''[[Software]]''' page.

| |
|
| As of Jul, 2016, Hyrel Printers are available in two models: [[Engines]] and [[Systems]]. The larger, faster [[Model 16A]] and the smaller, more precise [[Engine HR]] should be available in Aug, 2016.
| | == '''DIY Users Start Here - Look at our Resources''' == |
|
| |
|
| All models use our Repetrel software and any Slicer (Slic3r support provided). Each model comes with a Windows Tablet PC. We operate our print heads via CANbus.

| ==== The Model 16A ==== | | == '''Inquiring Users Start Here - Contact Us''' == |
|
| |
|
| The [[Model 16A]] has hard resolution (with encoder feedback) of 20 microns in the X and Y, and 0.8 microns in the Z in standard mode. In microstepping mode, we can achieve soft resolution of 4 microns in the X and Y. It comes standard with two tool positions, but can take additional yokes to handle more.

|
| | Phone: '''+91 80 28377270''' |
|
| |
|
| The base model has a 400mm x 300mm x 300mm (X/Y/Z) build volume.
| | Address: 108 E, First Floor, SRS Road, III Phase, |
| | Peenya Industrial Area, |
| | Bangalore 560058. |
|
| |
|
| In addition to our Hyrel interchangeable heads and accessories, the following configurations may be ordered:
| | === Can we print your material? === |
|
| |
|
| * Upgrade to 600mm x 400mm x 300mm (X/Y/Z) build volume - Big X/Y, or 16AB (for big).
| | '''Probably... please tell us:''' |
| * Upgrade to 600mm x 400mm x 300mm (X/Y/Z) build volume - Big X/Y/Z, or 6ABT (for big and tall).
| |
| * Add a CO2 laser - specify 40w or 80w.

| | # What form it is in at room temperature (powder, granules, filament, gel, etc). |
| | # Do you need the environment or build surface at a certain temperature? |
| | # For Filaments: |
| | ## At what temperature will it be printed? |
| | ## Is it 1.75mm +/- 0.1mm? |
| | # For liquids, gels, granules or powders: |
| | ## At what temperature will it be deposited? |
| | ## Is it homogeneous or pre-mixed, or do we need to mix it as we dispense? |
| | ### If mixed as dispensed, at static or dynamic ratios? |
| | ## How does it harden or cure (by cooling, by heating, with humidity, with UV light (specify wavelength))? |
| | ## Is it photosensitive? Energetic? Caustic? Any special handling, safety or ventilation requirements? |
| | ## What viscosity is it during deposition? |
|
| |
|
| [[Systems]] are enclosed Detailed information is on the [[Systems]] page. The System 30M replaced the System 30, which replaced the System 23. For you history buffs and Kickstarters.
| |
|
| |
|
| ==== The Engines ====
| |
|
| |
|
| [[Engines]] are open-air models. Engines can take up to four heads at once, either working cooperatively on a one print, or making duplicate copies of a small print at the same time. Build volume is 200mm x 200mm x 200mm (X/Y/Z). Detailed information is on the [[Engines]] page.
| | We also have partners in France and India, and CE marked units are available. |

|
| Cold Flow is our term for fluid or emulsified (non-filament-based) materials which are deposited at room temperature, with or without UV Crosslinking.

| ==== The Warm Flow Process ====
| |
| | |
| Warm Flow is our term for fluid or emulsified (non-filament-based) materials which are deposited at up to 150°C, with or without UV Crosslinking, depending on the head.
| |
| | |
| PCL and other medium temperature material can be printed directly from Pellets the size of small peas. If you pulverize or powder your polymer, it is possible to pre-mix the material dry and test different alloys of plastics.

| ==== The Hot Flow Process ====
| |
| | |
| Hot Flow is our term for filament-based materials which are deposited at up to 450°C, depending on the head. This process has also been referred to as '''FFF''' for Fused Filament Fabrication, or '''FDM''' for Fused Deposition Modeling. As of November, 2016, our Hot Flow heads are only for 1.75mm filaments.

| The following table compares the properties of the various Hot Flow heads, including which heads are recommended for which materials. The MK1 heads drive matieral from one side, with a spring-loaded bearing system to maintain pressure and positioning. The MK2 heads drive the material from both sides, and are designed for more flexible filaments.

| === '''Other Accessories''' ===
| |
| | |
| ==== Lasers ====
| |
| | |
| Hot-swappable Lasers are available in the following configurations:
| |
| | |
| * The LA5-808 is 5W at 808nm, and due to its wavelength, it is best suited for darker material.
| |
| * The LA6-450 is 6W at 450nm, and performs well on opaque material of any color.
| |
| | |
| * [[File:Yt.png]] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tz6mRSkOaSk Overview of the LA5-808 and LA6-450 Lasers]
| |
| | |
| The Reflectivity and Transparency or Translucency of your material will have a great impact on the effectiveness of the laser. Safety glasses are included with each laser.
| |
| | |
| ==== Spindle Tools ====
| |
| | |

| |
| </gallery>
| |
| | |
| Intended for light drilling and routing operations (especially circuit board work), the ST1 provides between 500 and 5000 RMP (depending on load) to a 1/8" chuck. Our Repetrel software can process Gerber and DRL files for the Spindle Tool and/or the Lasers.
| |
| | |
| ==== Other Tool Position Accessories ====
| |
| | |
| The following accessories each take up a tool position while performing more passive functions:
| |
| | |
| * The Inspector microscope provides magnification.
| |
| * The Quiet Storm fan provides additional cooling.
| |
| * The Tramming Tool, provided with every printer, is used to level the build surface.
| |
| | |
| ==== Non-Tool Position Accessories ====
| |
| | |
| The following non-head accessories are also available:
| |
| | |
| * The Feed Chamber Cooling Fan mounts on Hot Flow heads to provide additional cooling to the feed chamber. This is desirable with low temperature filaments like PLA.
| |
| * The Printer Support Kit is included with every printer, and includes a build plate, blue tape, and a variety of handy tools like tweezers, razors, and a spatula.
| |
| * The SDK | Software Developer's Kit provides hardware, software, and the source code for developing your own firmware for your own compatible heads.
| |
| * The LTK | Luer Tip Kit provides an EMO to Luer adapter and a variety of luer lock needles.
| |
| * The Syringe Kit provides syringes in quantity.
| |
| * The Drill Bit Kit provides an assortment of drilling bits and end mills for the Spindle Tool.
| |
| * The Filament Kit provides a variety of filaments to get you started with your printer.
