Intamsys FUNMAT PRO 310 - Material Change before Printing; Pause to Change Material

3. Click "Target" and set it to the extrusion temperature of the material. After confirmation, the
nozzle will be automatically heated to the target temperature. Remove the nozzle with a 7 mm socket
wrench.
4. Take out the high-temperature nozzle in the socket with tweezers, replace it with a new one
and install it on the extruder.
5. After replacing the nozzle, hot bed leveling, XY calibration, and Z calibration are
recommended.
5.3.2 Material change before printing
To change material type before printing, you shall not only change the material on the Material
interface, but also selectively replace the printing nozzle. Different nozzles shall be used to print
different materials. If you want to use one nozzle to print different materials, the nozzle temperatures
for printing of such materials must be very close, and an extrusion temperature difference of no
more than 50℃ is recommended.
Note: Do not use nozzles for printing high-melting point materials to print supermelting point
materials. For example, printing PLA with nozzles that have already printed PC will cause blockage
of the extruder and printing failure.
If the old and new material types are consistent or the nozzle temperatures for printing of different
materials are close, it is not necessary to replace the nozzle. The procedure is as follows:
1. Unload the old material.
2. Select the new material to be loaded, and preform the loading operations.
If the old and new material types are inconsistent or there is a big difference between the nozzle
temperatures for printing of different materials, the nozzles shall be replaced; accordingly, leveling,
Z calibration, and XY calibration shall also be done. The procedure is as follows:
1. Unload the old material.
2. Replace the nozzle.
3. Select the new material to be loaded, and preform the loading operations.
4. Perform again the step of hot bed leveling, Z calibration and XY calibration.
5.3.3 Pause to change material
If you need to change material while the printer is printing, follow these procedures:
1. Click the "Pause" button at the bottom of the main interface and wait until the movement of
the extruder stops completely.
2. Unload the old material.
3. Load the new material.
4. After the material is loaded, click the "Start" button on the lower part of the interface to
continue printing.
