Ventilation
AON3D machines are open-materials platforms. As such, AON3D cannot make any general claims in regards to environmental safety, as customers are free to use the material(s) of their choice. AON3D strongly urges to consult with material manufacturers, and/or perform their own safety tests, to determine appropriate ventilation and required safety gear when operating the AON3D machines with their chosen material(s).
The AON-M2 2020 and M2+ machines are equipped with an exhaust port (2). This port can be used to connect an optional ventilation system to the machine. To use the exhaust port:
- Remove the two snap-in plugs (1) from the back and the inside of the machine.
- Connect the ventilation system to the exhaust port (2). Refer to the illustration below for the exhaust port dimensions.
