1 Basic Information

1.1 General description

The Procusini is an easy-to-use Procusini for use in commercial kitchen, e.g. in catering, event
gastronomy or bakery/confectionery.

It consists of a heatable cartridge holder, which is mounted to a positioning unit and operated via
WLAN. The x and y axis are controlled by a tooth belt, while the z axis and the extruder are set into
motion by threaded rods. The cartridge holder is located at the end of the y axis and during the
production process is moved upwards layer by layer by means of the z-motor. The production plate
represents the x axis and serves as a bearing surface for the pads to be printed (flexible production
mat; plates; breads etc.). The food is filled into food-safe cartridges or are available as food-safe
refills. These cartridges are inserted into the cartridge holder and if necessary heated to a
temperature specifically defined for the food item. There is no direct contact between the food item
located in the cartridge and the device itself.

For commercial use as defined by the use in compliance with regulations, the user is required to
comply with the given work safety provisions and the current rules and standards as well as
observing any new specifications for the entire service life of the machine. For use outside of the
European Union, the occupational safety legislation and regional stipulations are to be followed
according to all local, state and federal regulations.

In addition to the occupational safety notes in this manual, the valid safety- and accident prevention
regulations as well as the valid environmental protection stipulations for the location at which the
machine operates are to be observed and maintained:

Setup, location of operation

Place the Procusini onto a stable, horizontal, large enough area only. Please note that the production
plate moves from right to left when operating and thus requires enough space. Additionally, some
movement also occurs vertically. When selecting the operating location, please make sure that the
device is able to move in these directions.

Choose the operating location in a way that children cannot reach the product.

When setting up the device, please make sure that the power adapter is easily accessible in order to
quickly and easily shut off the device in the event of an error.

Do not place the machine in areas where extreme temperatures, strong vibrations, high humidity
(i.e. rain or steam), dust, or heavy mechanical stresses may occur.

Do not place any liquid-filled vessels (i.e. glasses, vases, etc.) on top of or in the vicinity of the
machine and never pour water over the machine. Fluids may enter the machine casing and impair
the electronic stability of the machine. Additionally, there is a high risk of fire or life-threatening
electrical shocks!

If such an event occurs, shut down the respective power supply plug completely (i.e. turn off the
circuit breaker and earth leakage circuit breaker) and then pull the power cord from the socket.
Disconnect all wires from the device. The entire product is not to be used again. Please contact a
specialized dealer or the manufacturer.

Do not place any sources of ignition such as stoves, fryers or burning candles next to or on top of the
device.

While setting up the machine, be sure that the power line is not squeezed or damaged by sharp
corners.

Take note of the additional safety instructions found in the individual chapters of this manual.

rotation.

Important! Screw on the stainless steel tip only hand-tight.
Warning! The stainless steel tip warms up during operation. Let it cool down long enough

before removing it for cleaning.

Cleaning of the production plate

The production plate is fixed to the device table by means of 3 magnets only. In this way you have
the possibility to remove it for cleaning. To extend the life of your production plate, we recommend
to clean it by hand.

Important! Use moderately warm water only to avoid the deformation of your production
plate. Do not use any scouring sponges or scouring agents that might scratch the
production plate.

Cleaning of the flexible production mat, silicone

The flexible production mat is dishwasher safe in the top tray of your dishwasher. Due to the
corrosive effects of dishwashing detergents, we recommend to wash it by hand in order to increase
the life span of your flexible production mat.

Wipe off with a damp, soft sponge, then rinse thoroughly. A mild detergent or soap can be used. Do
not use scouring sponges. Shake off excess water and leave the flexible production mat to air dry.
Store flatly, the flexible production mat must not be bent or folded.

Do not cut on the flexible production mat. Do not use any sharp objects which can perforate
or cut up the production mat. Never use a flexible production mat which has tears or cuts.

6.4 Standby mode

If you do not start a production order for 2 hours, your Procusini goes into standby mode
automatically. In order to get started again, press ”Connect“.

By selecting Procusini you have chosen a product that has a state-of-the-art construction and is
operationally safe.

Despite this, problems or disturbances may occur. For this reason, a guide to solve potential
problems is given in the following: Observe the safety information!

After start-up, the 3D printer is not working. The LED switch does not light up and the printer does
not move to the home position:

• Check the connections to the power supply.

• Check the power socket. Is it being supplied with current?

After several minutes no movement of the printer occurs, the user interface, however, is visible on
the computer/laptop/tablet:

• Switch off the Procusini, wait at least 20 seconds and turn it back on.

No connection with the device is possible in the browser of your computers / laptop / tablet:

• Be sure to use Google Chrome or Safari.

• Restart the network connection and the browser.

• Switch off the Procusini, wait at least 20 seconds and turn it back on.

• Restart your computer and try again.

Despite an audible movement of the motor and the fill level display, there is no food coming out of
the dosing tip:

• Check the dosing tip for blockages.

• Unscrew the dosing tip and clean it as described in the chapter ”Cleaning of the dosing tip“.

At the start of production, the dosing tip is too far away from the production plate or it is too close
to the production plate:

• End the production process by pressing the button ”Stop“.

• Perform a fine calibration and restart the production process.

The printer stops printing for no obvious reason:

• Check the network and WiFi connection as well as the level of material in the cartridge.

• Turn the printer off. Wait 30 seconds and turn it back on.

• After the printer has been restarted, wait until it has made its initial movement before establishing

a connection with the printer.
