DEERED — USER MANUAL 4

Meet DeeRed, a professional 3D printer whose print volume and quality meets the
requirements of every demanding designer, manufacturer, or project architect. With
two extruders, a large build volume, and a user-friendly interface, not to mention
high print quality, DeeRed is one of a kind.

The printer’s build volume is one of the largest available in printers using the Fused
Filament Fabrication (FFF) technology, allowing DeeRed to print models up to the
dimensions of 400 x 600 x 800 mm. The printer’s two extruders enable printing
using two diff erent materials or two diff erent colors.

User control is as simple as ever with a large touchscreen and the DeeControl
software, an application that prepares project fi les for 3D layering. DeeControl,
developed by be3D, is available for both Macs and PCs running Windows.

Connect DeeRed to your network via an Ethernet port and monitor the printing
process remotely using the included webcam. Print with a wide array of polymers,
including PLA (polylactic acid), ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), and PVA
(polyvinyl alcohol). Finally, do not worry about electricity requirements – all the

DeeRed 3D printer needs is a standard power socket.

processes that are taking place.

DEERED — USER MANUAL 9

2. Filament Storage Area

Open the doors of the printer by pushing on the lower part of the frame. This area
is used for storing fi lament spools. Only use fi laments authorized by the printer’s
manufacturer.

2.1. Filament Entry Points

The fi lament storage area contains two fi lament entry points, each for a diff erent
type (or color) of fi lament. Both entry points contain a sensor that detects whether
fi lament has been fed into the feeder tube, as well as detecting whether fi lament
has run out during printing. If this occurs, the printing process is paused and the
user is prompted to end the printing job or to replace the fi lament.

The left fi lament entry point is considered primary. The right fi lament entry point is
considered secondary.

2.2. Spool Holders

The fi lament storage area contains two spool holders. The spool holders have been
constructed to carry a maximum of 2 spools weighing up to 10 kg. Only one spool
may be placed on each spool holder.

3. USB Connector

The USB connector is used for connecting external USB devices to the printer, such
as USB fl ash drives, external USB power supplies, or memory card readers. Please
check with the supplier/manufacturer the compatibility of any USB device not part
of the delivery.

4. Electrical Installation

The electrical installation components are located behind a locked door. The
printer’s power supply, output electronics, and communication bus system are
covered by a metal plate. The visible, uncovered section, contains motor control
units, fuses, and circuit breakers. Do not handle the motor control units when using
the printer.

4.1. Fuses

The fuses protect the low-current circuit of the printer. If a power surge (the
excessive consumption of electric current) occurs, the fuses will blow – this will
generally happen during an overload or in the case of a short circuit. In order for the
printer to become functional again, the fuses must be replaced (see chapter 9.7
“Replacing the Fuses”, on page 34).

4.2. Circuit Breakers

The printer’s wiring is protected by circuit breakers. If a power surge (the excessive
consumption of electric current) occurs, the circuit breakers will be switched off –
this will generally happen during an overload or in the case of a short circuit. In
order for the printer to become functional again, the circuit breakers must be reset
(see chapter 9.8, “Resetting the Circuit Breakers”, on page 35).

DEERED — USER MANUAL 10

5. Emergency Power Switch

The emergency power switch is located on the front part of the printer, right under
the display. When switched off , it will immediately turn off the printer. It is primarily
meant to be used in situations that could lead to injury or printer damage.

6. Main Doors/Inside the Printer

The printing area (print chamber) can be accessed through the printer’s main doors.
The doors can be locked; open them by pulling out the lower part of the handle and
turning it 90° clockwise. The doors contain a sensor that detects whether they are
open or closed.

The printing process takes place in the printing area (print chamber). This area may
be hot, so please use caution when opening the main doors. It also contains many
of the printer’s key components.

6.1. Magnetic Locks

The upper and the lower corners of the doorframe contain a magnetic lock, which
stops the door from opening during the printing process and protects the user from
potential injury.

6.2. Print Head

The print head is located on mechanical rails in the upper part of the printing area.
One of the printer’s key components, it is used for layering the fi lament onto the
print bed and then, later, onto the already printed parts of the model. The print head
contains tubing that guides the fi lament into the nozzle, which is located in the
lower part of the print head.

6.3. Waste Chute

The waste chute is located in the right back corner of the printing area and leads to
a wastebasket placed in the printer’s storage area. It has been designed to capture
any waste material produced during the printing process – a spatula, placed on the
edge of the chute, scrapes the nozzle clean every time it passes over it on its way
to the print bed. The removed fi lament then falls through the chute straight into
the wastebasket.

6.4. Print Table

The print table ensures vertical movement during the printing process. The heated
print bed is placed on the upper part on the table; the fi rst layer of the model is
glued to it. The print bed is heated from below and can reach high temperatures (up
to 120 °C), so please use heightened caution when working or coming into contact
with its surface.

To remove the glass bed, loosen the two clips on the front part of the table. Use
caution whenever you come into contact with the print bed.

6.5. Off set Sensor

The off set sensor calibrates the printer before the start of each print job.

DEERED — USER MANUAL 11

7. Connectors

The connectors are located on a separate panel on the back of the printer, towards
the right side. When plugging in cables, make sure there is enough space around
the printer for them to drop down naturally – they must not be bent by force. For
safety reasons, the user must have access to the panel with the connectors as
well as to the socket to which the power cable is connected.

7.1. Power Connector with Master Switch

Plug the power cable into the connector to connect the printer to the electricity
network. The connector includes a two-stage switch that can switch the power off
if necessary.

7.2. LAN Connector

The LAN connector enables the user to connect the printer to the local network by
means of an Ethernet cable.

7.3. USB Connector

This connector is identical to the one placed behind the doors to the fi lament
storage area.

8. Grip Insertion Cavities

Insert the provided grips into these threaded cavities to lift and carry the printer.
Ifthe original grips are used, the cavities are able to hold the printer’s weight.

Do not use other grips than those provided by the manufacturer!

9. General Storage Area

The general storage area contains the wastebasket, which catches the waste
material produced during the printing process (the waste falls into the basket
through the waste chute located in the right back corner of the printing area).
Check the wastebasket regularly and empty it when necessary to prevent it from
fi lling up and jamming the waste chute.

The general storage area can also be used for storing tools, materials and printed
models.

10. Rollers/Stands

By default, the printer is delivered with screw-on stands. In the installation process,
however, the stands can be replaced by a set of rollers (the rollers are delivered
together with the printer).

DEERED — USER MANUAL 12

4.2 Safety Components

4.2.1 Open Door Sensor

The sensor detects whether the doors to the printing area are open or closed. If
they are open, the printer will not proceed with a print job or start a new one.

4.2.2 Handle with Lock

The handle on the doors to the printing area contains a mechanical lock, which
can only be opened by a key. The key may be used to lock the doors, so that
unauthorized persons cannot access the printing area.

4.2.3 Emergency Power Switch

The emergency power switch is located on the front part of the printer, right under
the display. When switched off , it will immediately turn the printer off . Use it only in
situations that could lead to injury or printer damage.

4.2.4 Print Bed Heating Thermostat

The print bed thermostat is located inside the print table and protects the printer
from overheating and damage. If the print bed temperature exceeds 120 °C, the
thermostat will disconnect the heating unit from the power supply. As soon as the
temperature drops, the thermostat will reconnect the power supply and the heating
unit will start heating up again.

4.2.5 Magnetic Locks

Both the upper and the lower corners of the doorframe contain magnetic locks,
which seal off the printing area until the mechanisms inside have stopped moving
and the temperature of the heated components has dropped to a safe level.

4.2.6 Fuses

The fuses protect the printer’s electronic circuits and will blow in case of a power
surge. In order for the printer to become functional again, the fuses must be
replaced (see chapter 9.7, “Replacing the Fuses”, on page 34).

4.2.7 Circuit Breakers

The printer’s wiring is protected by circuit breakers. If a power surge (the excessive
consumption of electric current) occurs, the circuit breakers will be switched off . In
order for the printer to become functional again, the circuit breakers must be reset
(see chapter 9.8, “Resetting the Circuit Breakers”, on page 35).
