Thickness gauges for PG check
Teflon tape (part code: 1684353)
Preparing the thickness gauge
The standard range of the PG is as follows:
• Standard: 1.60 ± 0.1 mm
The Print Head of this printer has an integral structure of
the Printhead Cover and Printhead nozzle surface.
Therefore, if the thickness gauge touches the nozzle
surface in the same way as performed in the traditional
procedure, the nozzle surface may be damaged. When
checking the platen gap, make sure to apply Teflon tape
(thickness: 0.08 mm) on all the thickness gauges used for
checking the Platen Gap in advance.
Use commercially available Teflon tape of 0.08 mm in
thickness.
When applying Teflon tape on the thickness gauges, make
sure no bubbles or foreign material remain under the
tape.
