TIP COMPATIBILITY AND SELECTION
Table 2-2 lists the materials available for use with the F900 and their corresponding tips.
Table 2-3 lists the slice heights for each model tip.
Table 2-4 provides approximate tip life, based on the amount of material used.
• The system tracks tip use and automatically prompts you, through the Operator Touchscreen,
w
hen a tip should be replaced. Worn tips are prone to clogs and reduce part quality. See
“Materials/Tools Display” on page 45 for more information on viewing tip use status.
• W
hen changing tips, the Tip Wizard will guide you through resetting the tip odometers from the
d
isplay panel.
• If building with ABS-M30 or ABS-M30i, you can use SR-20, SR-30, or SR-35 support material.
•
If using SR-20 material, use T12SR20 tip only (previously called a T12SR tip).
•
If using SR-30 or SR-35 material, use T12SR30 tip only.
•
If using SR-100 material, use T12SR100 tip only.
•
If using SR-110 material, use T12SR100 tip only.
Th
e standard tip is used for Break-Away Supports (BASS) and model material. See “Tip Identification” on
page 21 for more information.
