1General
1.1 Overview
Magnum is a 3D-printer from The Industry Sweden AB. An overview of machine components can be seen in
figure 2. The printing volume of the machine is 1200mm (Width) x 1500mm (Length) x 1200mm (Height). The
machine is closed without any protruding mechanical parts to avoid pinch point hazards. The electrical cabinet
can be found at the back of the machine. The machine doors that provide access to the printing area are
situated at the opposite end. The machine has a heated vacuum table (fig 2 and 3) and one extruder for plastic
material fig 4). On the machine’s vacuum table, a 2 mm thick aluminium sheet is attached which has the same
length and width as the table. The plastic material extruder is fed by plastic granulate. The extruder is equipped
with water-cooled cooling inlets. Part of the machine comprises an external water-cooling unit, which controls
the temperature of the extruder’cooling inlets. Material feeding to extruder is handled by material tubes led
through a cable chain. For additional information about the material transport system, see 4.1.

1.2 Field of Application
•The machine’s main field of application is the production of plastic parts.
1.3 Description of the extruder
There are 1 extruder on the machine. It is located in the machine gantry.
•The extruder is for nozzle sizes 2-8mm.
•For detailed information on the individual spare parts of the extruder, see fig 5.
•The extruder is equipped with a water-cooling system to prevent heat from the heating bands to reach
the material inlet. Should the material inlet become too hot, the material flow may become uneven
due to increase stickiness of material.
•The extruder has three 1200Watts heating bands and one temperature sensor for each heating band.

1.4 Description of the vacuum table
The machine has a vacuum table which acts as the print table on which a print sheet will be placed upon. After
it has been equipped with a print sheet, it acts as a surface on which the machine will build 3D-objects with the
extruder. It is located at the center of the machine.
•The vacuum table has 1200 x 1500 mm area.
•There are milled grooves on the tables top surface which function as channels for the airflow in order
to generate vacuum.

Figure 6 (Top side of vacuum table)
•The grooves on the top surface lead to 4 outlets where the air is ejected via vacuum ejectors.
•All grooves must be covered by the print sheet to reach sufficient vacuum.
•The recommended material for the top sheet is aluminium.
•The recommended thickness for the top sheet is 2mm.
1.5 Description NFC tags
•Next to the control panel are 2 green badges with symbols. These contain an NFC tag. By holding a
mobile phone over the badge, the phone reads the NFC tag and directs you to Magnum's unique
product information. On the badge with gearwheel there is Magnum's Manual and information
relating to all Magnums and on the tray with an "i" there is information about your particular
Magnum.
