RDM Installation and Removal
This section describes how to install and remove the Resin Delivery Module (RDM). It also
provides blade removal and off-line temperature information.
Software Overview
This section gives an overview of how to use the software that is connected to the Viper Pro. It
includes the pictures of software screens, as well as information on how to open, start, complete,
and remove a build.
Debris Filtering
This section tells you how to filter debris from the Viper Pro.
Image Projection Module
This section gives information on geometric calibrations and laser calibrations, xx (et al.)
Safety

For more detailed material safety information, see (xx: other manuals to consult? and their part
number). To verify that your facility was properly prepared for the Viper Pro, see Facility
Requirements Guide: Viper Pro SLA System. Your 3D Systems Viper Pro accessory kit includes
both guides. They are also available in the /Docs folder on your Viper Pro software CD-ROM.
See Other Useful Documents on page 10.
Maintenance
This section lists Viper Pro maintenance procedures that must be performed to ensure high part
yield and low Viper Pro down time. You can perform some maintenance procedures. Semi-annual
preventive maintenance requires a certified 3D Systems Customer Support Representative. xx:
Brian Ward to give important information?
Glossary
Are you wondering what stereolithography is all about? Do you have questions about the
SmartSweep Recoating Process? In this section, we’ve covered the definitions that you need to
operate the Viper Pro.
Troubleshooting
If you run into difficulty with your Viper Pro system, look for solutions in this section first. You’ll
find descriptions of some common problems that can occur and suggestions of corrective actions.

New Features
The Viper Pro has the following features that are improvements over SLA models:
Resin Delivery Module
Single Resin Delivery Module
The Viper Pro is capable of building with only one resin delivery module while the second
delivery module is inactive. As mentioned in the previous paragraph, the second module can be
warmed up offline while the first is building. A single resin delivery module can upgrade to a dual
resin delivery module in less than two days.
Dual Resin Delivery Module
The Viper Pro can also build parts in two separate build zones. Each zone is independently
capable of supporting its own active resin delivery module and motion axis control, allowing
controlled builds in both zones simultaneously and allowing those builds to use different resins.
Extra Large Resin Delivery Module
The Viper Pro can operate so that two build zones combine into a single larger build zone to create
larger parts that figure into a single contiguous envelope. The extra large resin delivery module
allows for a build zone of 1500mm x 750mm x 500mm.

8
Intelligent Resin Container
Each container holds an electronic storage device that has information about the resin that is in the
bottle. This information allows the Viper Pro to make sure that the user does not use the wrong
material, use the material incorrectly, use an empty container, or use an expired container.
Resin Change Time Reduction
Not only can you now change resin time in less than ten minutes, you can also swap the resin
delivery module easily without coming into contact with resin. All components that come in
contact with resin in the resin delivery module are removed with the module itself. You can
remove the resin delivery module easily and quickly and replace it with another active resin
delivery module, without having to clean any wet resin surface. This new feature significantly
reduces resin swap time. In addition, you may warm up a resin delivery module offline, allowing
you to swap one resin delivery module for another that is ready to use.
Recoating Module
Scanning System
The scanning system makes the laser draw.
