SHRINK COMPENSATION FOR PROJET VISIJET® MATERIALS
• Material shrinkage occurs in thermosets as they transition from liquid state to solid state during the curing process.
• The ProJet Accelerator Client Software has features that allow the user to compensate for the natural shrinkage of the material in
order to ne tune the accuracy of a part.
• These shrink compensation values serve as general guidelines to setting shrink compensation. Part building and cleaning in a
controlled process will best determine the optimal shrink compensation values for a particular geometry.
Enter Standard Shrink Compensation Values for the material.
• Open ProJet Accelerator Client software and select the desired printer.
• Select the part to build.
• Select the “Options” button.
