 SLS 6100 3D Printer

Supplied by

: 3D Systems

Installed by

: 3D Systems

The printer requires a 3-phase, 208 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 10 kVA power source .
Ceiling drop lines for nitrogen supply and exhaust, electrical, and clean dry air (CDA) are recommended. The floor below the 

process station must be flat and vibration-free. The room must be air-conditioned, with no vents directly above the machine. 

Clearance around the process station is required so hinged access panels can be fully opened . See the 

ProX

There is (1)  standard USB ports beneath 

the LED’s . .

User and Service Access Panels: 

There are 

two types of panels on the sides and back

doors . The service access panels are lift-off 

panels . A tool is required to open each 

service panel .
