Chapter 1: 3D Printing Technology3D printing refers to transforming three-dimensional models into physical objects thatyou can hold and touch. It is also called additive manufacturing, because the 3D model iscreated by “adding”layers upon layers of material until the object is fully fomed.Fused Filament Fabrication(FFF) is the most common method of 3D printing. It is also themethod that the Creator Pro 2 uses. It works by melting plastic material called filamentonto a print surface in high temperature. The filament solidifies after it cool down, whichhappens instaneously after it is extruded from the nozzle. 3D object are formed with thefilament laying down multiple layers.1.1Process3D printing involves three steps:1.Make or download a 3D model.2.Slice and export the 3D model.3.Build the 3D model.1.1.1 Make a 3D ModelCurrently, there are three ways of making a 3D model.Designing From Scratch：You can use free CAD(computer-aided design)software such as3DTADA, AutoCAD, SolidWorks, Pro-E.3D Scanners：An alternative method to making a 3D model is to scan an object. 3Dscanners work by sigitizing a physical object, collecting its geometric data, and saving itto a file on your PC. There are also apps that can turn a mobile device into a 3D scanner.From the Website：The most popular way of obtaining a 3D model is to download it fromwebsites that allow users to upload 3D models that they designed.E.g: www.thingiverse.com1.1.2 Slice and Export the 3D ModelSlice software is the software that prepares 3D models for printing and turns theminto instructions for the 3D printers. FlashPrint is the slicing software used for theFlashForge Creator Pro 2.Using FlashPrint, you can prepare .stl files to be .x3g files for printing. Then users canprint files via SD card.1.1.3 Build the 3D ModelOnce the output file has been transferred to your Creator Pro 2, it will start to turn the3D model into a physical object by laying down layers of filament.05

2.3.4 First PrintAfter installing, loading filament and calibrating, it start your first print.1. Insert the SD card to the side of rge2. Tap [Print]-[SD card]; choose the test file to print.19
2.3.5 Remove ModelsWarm！Drop the platform down first before removing the model. Please pay attentionto the direction of shoveling to avoid scratches by using the scraper knife.Do not damage the build plate when removing models.The scratch on the build platemay cause print fails.· Model coolingPrint model on the build plate without glum. Only after cold down the printed objectsand build plate,remove the models easily.· Using scraper knifeAfter cooling, the printed object is still attached to the platform, and you can use ascraper knife to remove the printed product. Keep the blade parallel to the printingplatform, slightly insert from the bottom of the model and remove the model with alittle force.2.3.6 Remove SupportsRemoving PVA supports needs post-procession. Put the PVA supports model into thewater to dissolve supports.1. Put the printed objects into the waterPut the printed objects with PVA supports into the water and dissolve PVA supports.There are some methods to speed up dissolve.· Using warm water to speed up dissolve PVA. If the main structure of printed objects isPLA, it ensures the temperature of warm water should not over 35 C to avoid printedobjects shape deformation.· Stir water. The moving water can speed up solution of PVA.· Soak printed objects in the water about 10 mins, and remove supports by pincers. Thenput the printed objects into the water and dissolve remaining PVA easily.2. Rinse with waterAfter the PVA support is completely dissolved, rinse the model with water to remove theremaining PVA.3. Dry modelLet the model dry completely and perform additional post-processing on the objects ifnecessary.4. Waste water treatmentBecause PVA is biodegradable, it is easy to dispose of waste water afterwards. Afterdisposing of the waste water, flush it with hot water for 30 seconds to remove excessPVA in the drain pipe and avoid blockage. Water can be used repeatedly to soakmultiple models, but may increase the dissolution time. Therefore it is recommended touse fresh water to achieve the best effect.20
2.3.7 Material CompatibilityCreator Pro 2 have two independent extruders and support PLA, ABS, HIPS and PVA.Combination mode:PVA PLAHIPS ABSPLA PLAABS ABSFlashforge materials is the best recommended, even Creator pro2 support openmaterials brands. All Flashforge materials have been tested and the best printedparameters have been used in the FlashPrint.PVA filament is water-soluble and has strong water absorption. The filament may softenafter absorbing water, and it is easy to fail printing. Place PVA filament in a dry box whenprinting. PVA storage requires sealed and dry storage.For best results, each material requires different settings.If you use FlashPrint to slice the model, these settings will be automatically set correctlywhen the correct print extruder and material are selected.Adaptability of materials parametersDifferent filament brands have different material characteristics.So it is recommended touse the expert mode to fine-tune the parameters to ensure a good print quality.· Thicken the first layer thickness. It is better to adhesion to platform by adding the firstlayer filament output.· Set the platform temperature to 30 C, when printed small PLA model or the environment temperature is higher over 25 C.· Set the platform temperature to 50 C, when printed big PLA model or the environmenttemperature is lower over 10 C.· The open printing chamber is good for PLA printing and remove the top cover.· The closed printing chamber is good for ABS printing and close the top cover to avoidfilament cracking.· It is advised to decrease to 40% of standard printing speed. Place PVA filament in a drybox to avoid printing fails by absorbing water in the air.21
