After each print, the print tray has to be scraped clear of any residual material. Any collateral material printed during the additive manufacturing process will remain on the tray. Not to worry though - because the resin is cured immediately after it is layered, it is hard and comes off the print tray surface with very little force. A soft cloth and rubbing alcohol (isopropyl) spray is all that is needed. Once cleaned, all the resin can be disposed of in the garbage – there are no toxic or biohazardous materials produced, unlike other 3D printing methods.

Once the print tray is clean, using rubbing alcohol and a soft cloth again, a simple yet thorough rub of the PolyJet printer heads is essential to maintain an accurate, unhampered print next time. The print nozzles are durable and easy to clean, making the process a simple, short one.
