Requirements
User
It is highly recommended that all users complete Stratasys FDM Hardware/
Insight training to ensure they obtain the necessary skills to operate the Strata-
sys equipment. Contact Stratasys’ Training department for details.
Space
The FDM 2000/3000 uses 26 x 36 inches of bench-top space. If you are not
purchasing a Stratasys table, make sure the table you use can support 500 lbs.
Two to three feet of space behind the FDM 2000/3000/8000 (side) are needed for
clearance when opening the back door to change the spools of material. With a
Stratasys table or any other table on casters, space can be minimized by pushing
the FDM 2000/3000/8000 flush to the wall (within 1 to 2 inches), and then rolling
the FDM 2000/3000/8000 away from the wall to change the filament.
Other
The FDM 2000/3000 operate on 110VAC (one 20-amp line) and within the tem-
perature and humidity ranges of an ordinary office environment.
The FDM 8000 operates on 208-240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 10 amps, and within the
temperature and humidity ranges of an ordinary office environment.
No special provisions are required for noise or vibration with the FDM 2000/
3000/8000.
Items Included
All necessary hardware is included with the FDM 2000/3000/8000. Cabling to
connect it to the workstation varies somewhat depending on the type of work-
station.
