===== About =====
** The Objet 30 has been removed from the lab. Due to a high cost of maintenance and relatively low usage, we've decided to retire this tool. If you relied on this tool for "glossy" prints, please reach out to Brian Dincau, who has developed a method for achieving similarly glossy prints from Form3 resin prints.**

The Objet30 Pro is a very accurate and versatile tool that can be utilized with different types of printing materials. The printer has two print heads – one prints the structural material for parts, and the other prints a support material. Parts are built on a layer of the support material. Matt finish parts are surrounded in support, and overhanging features are supported with support material during printing. The support material is removed in the water jet station. This is a great tool for accurate and precise models.

===== Safety Concerns =====
**Printer Operation**  
  * The printer should only be operated by persons trained by Brian or any Workshop Wizard.
  * Gloves should be worn when working with the print resins and when cleaning the print heads
  * All personnel operating or maintaining the printer should know the location of first aid and emergency equipment and how to use it.
  * Never block access to this equipment!
  * Keep fingers and other body parts clear of the printer cover when closing it.
  * Never attempt to open the main cover of the printer while it is working!
  * Never override the interlock safety switch!
  * If the interlock safety switches ever fail, do not use the printer.
  * Several parts of the printer remain extremely hot even after it has stopped operating. Avoid touching the UV lamp and the print block.
