Use of Z-Printer + post processing

The Z-Printer builds the prototype by making many thin cross sections of the model. A printerhead moves around the layer to deposit liquid binding material. A thin layer of powder is spread on top of this layer, and the process repeats. The exess powder is automaticly removed by the machine. Main advantage of using this method is the possibility to add color to the product. This allows you to representate different materials held by the product.
The use is very easy, just load your .STL file in the Z-Print software and follow the instructions. The image bellow provides clear instructions of how to use the software.

After the printing is finished you start with removing powder around the printed part. This work is very precise and should be done with a soft brush. Once you have brushed away all surrounding powder you can take out the printer part and move it into the depowdering station. Here we use an air-blower to blow away the remaining powder. Once all the powder has been removed the epoxy can be applied. This is needed to give the product it's strength. Finally let the product dry and eventually you have your final product. The whole process can be watched in the following video.
