The Stratasys Connex Objet350 is our very big multifilament printer which is currently undergoing repairs.

Current Problems

  • Cant maintain proper pressure (auto turnoff)
    Vacuum broken (improbable)
    Cracked Cable (likely)
  • Flooded Vaccum (cleaned out)
  • Maggots in the lining
  • One print head not receiving proper voltage
     Broken head
     Messed main board
     Messed up wiring
  • One head wont light up
     Broken head
     Not plugged in properly
     Gunk in contacts
  • Maybe temperature sensor broken (previous maintainers said so)
     Unknown reason

What is it

The Objet Connex350™ features Objet’s pioneering multi-material 3D printing capability with an intermediate-size build tray of 350 x 350 x 200mm. It enables designers and engineers to rapidly build prototypes to simulate their intended end-product closer than any other technology.

The Objet Connex 350 features:

  • Multi-material models – eliminating the need to design, print and glue separate model elements together
  • Different parts. Different materials. Same tray – saves time and serves multiple requirements simultaneously
  • Outstanding 16-micron, high-resolution print layer accuracy
  • 600 DPI X & Y resolution
  • Thin walls down to 0.6mm (0.024″)
  • High throughput – Up to 20mm per hour per strip
  • Reliability and robustness – at least 72 hours of non-stop build capacity
  • High speed – simultaneously print multiple items of different materials; models cure while printing; models can be handled immediately after print
  • Easy-to-remove support material enabling complex geometries
  • Office convenience– Quiet system, using fully-sealed REACH compliant cartridges that are easy to load and unload
