Bench/Mounting Rack Setup Configurations
It is recommended to install the Origin One printer on a 24 inch high benchtop or rack: 24 inches deep (minimum) with at least 38 inches of vertical clearance. A customers individual setup configuration will depend on the application and how many printers are present:

• A single printer will benefit from having all the required equipment on the same bench
• Multiple printers may benefit by having all of the printers located on the same bench, and post-processing equipment located in a separate processing station or area.

**** Your Stratasys representative can help you determine the best setup based on your available space.

**** Allow 100-150mm (4”- 6”) of space between printers when placed side by side to allow an operator to easily reach the master power switch in the rear of the machine. Alternatively, use a separate, easily-accessible power strip with individual switches.

Environmental Requirements

• The Origin One printer should be installed in a controlled environment with all necessary safety precautions.
• The Origin One printer operating environment should be physically separated from other functional areas (e.g. office space).
• The Origin One printer operating temperature shall be in the range of 59°F to 86°F (13°C to 30°C), with relative humidity range of 30% to 70% non-condensing.
• Keep the Origin One printer and material resins away from direct or indirect sunlight.
• Keep the Origin One printer and material resins in an environment with minimal exposure to dust and airborne particulates. The printer should be isolated from dust producing sources (e.g. powder bed fusion printers, milling equipment, etc.)

Electrical Requirements

• 90 – 264 VAC, 50 – 60 HZ, 700 W, 1 phase
• Only operate the Origin One printer with the 110V (IEC 320-C13) or 220V (CEE7/7RA TO IEC320-C13) grounded power connector provided with the printer. Do not replace the detachable power supply cord with an inadequately rated cord.

System Ventilation Requirements
Use the Origin One printer in a well-ventilated area. If used within an enclosed area, proper air changes, ventilation, and exhaust systems are required.

• Suggested ventilation: 8 – 10 air changes per hour.
• Check with the local regulatory agency or your EHS department to ensure that the system has sufficient ventilation for your requirements.
• Origin One printers support the option for a direct exhaust fume extraction system or the use of a ProAero fume extraction unit. Please reach out to your Stratasys representative for additional details if this is the preferred solution.
• Cleaning Station: It is recommended to operate your cleaning station under a qualified fume hood to reduce the emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) produced by organic solvents. It is also recommended to have a compressed air source near the cleaning station to assist with cleaning and drying parts.

Origin One Industrial/Origin One Dental LAN Requirements
This section should be forwarded to your appropriate IT personnel well ahead of installation for appropriate review as well as proper firewall configuration. The customer IT questionnaire shown below must be filled out and submitted to your Stratasys representative prior to the shipment of an Origin One printer.

Overview
Origin One Industrial and Dental printers establish TLS secured connections via a VPN tunnel to Origin’s Cloud, which is deployed within Google Cloud Platform.
Each Origin One printer creates and operates an internal VPN gateway, and connects to a single Stratasys-operated VPN gateway in Google Cloud Platform over UDP. No additional VPN appliance or customer-managed gateway is necessary. Communication is through ChaCha20 symmetric 256-bit encryption with Poly1305 for message authentication.
Stratasys connects Origin One printers to the Origin cloud platform via VPN because it is secure and robust, simple to configure, and has zero maintenance overhead. With this method, all communication is protected by an additional layer of end-to-end encryption, while in motion and at rest, and authentication.
VPNs are the preferred networking solution by every major cloud provider for interconnection between on-premise and cloud networks (see documentation from Amazon, Google, Microsoft and IBM).
Information sent to the cloud via API (app.origin.io or GrabCAD Print) uses TLS 1.2 with AES 128-bit encryption. For more information on data security, refer to the Terms of Service from: app.origin.io and https://help.grabcad.com/article/232-your-data-on-grabcad

Firewall Configuration
Table 1: Firewall Rules Protocol| Source IPs| Source Ports| Destination IPs| Destination Ports
---|---|---|---|---
UDP| | 51000 – 51999| 35.232.242.122| 51820
UDP| 35.232.242.122| 51820| | 51000 – 51999

Each Origin One printer acts as its own VPN endpoint on your end and connects to the Origin cloud VPN gateway at 35.232.242.122:51820.
Origin One printers will use a UDP port in the range of 51000-51999 on your internal network. The UDP port range is required so Network Address Translation (NAT) functionality in your firewall can route inbound packets to the correct printer. At least one unique port must be allocated per installed printer. Proxy servers typically do not support the UDP connection required for Origin One printers.
Origin printers will automatically send keep-alive packets to keep UDP connections open. On the VPN port, printers will only accept authenticated packets from the gateway, and vice versa. Note that the and internal 51000-51999 port range are default configuration values. If you prefer a specific subnet or internal port range, contact your regional support center.

Additional Configuration
Origin printers use DHCP by default, but may be configured to static IP addresses on the subnet of your choice. The printers use 10.144.0.0/16 internally for VPN communication. DHCP must not assign addresses in the 10.144.0.0/16 subnet, otherwise address conflicts will be created.
Locally, the printers may have SSH port 22 open, to support authorized onsite service by Origin personnel.
Origin One Local Requirements
The Origin One Local is designed for customers unable to connect to the Origin Cloud due to government contracts, specific IP requirements, or HIPPA restrictions. The printer is identical to the Origin One Industrial, except that it contains no transmitting components and it is configured to connect through local area network to the Origin Local Hub rather than the Origin Cloud.
The Origin Local Hub and up to 10 Origin One Local printers must be connected to the same network switch and subnet as the computer workstation sending print jobs. The network switch is not required to be connected to the Internet, as the devices only communicate locally.
Your IT personnel must have the network settings for the Origin Local Hub and any Origin One Local printers available at the time of installation.

Origin Local Hub Requirements
The Origin Local Hub is an industrial computer containing proprietary firmware which interacts with the Origin One Local printer on the LAN, replacing the requirement to access the Origin Cloud.

Space

• Dimensions (WxHxD): 11.93 x 2.56 x 8.27 inches (303 x 65 x 210 mm)
• Operational Clearance: Side, rear and front 4 inches (10.2 cm), Overhead 6 inches (15.2 cm)

Environmental

• Operating Temperature: 0-50C (32-122F)

Third-Party Software
Each Origin One printer comes with a single Netfabb license for build preparation and build file processing. Stratasys also works with a variety of third-party software, such as CAD/generative design, additive manufacturing, 3D print preparation, or other industry-specific software. Please contact your Stratasys representative to gain access to your Netfabb license. Your Stratasys representative can also help to find out if your workflow is currently supported and give specific use-case recommendations.

Post Processing Equipment

The following components should be obtained to create an efficient post- processing procedure for any printed parts. For more information on the post- print procedure, refer to the Origin One User Guide.

• Solvents: Isopropyl alcohol 99% (IPA), Acetone, and Glycol Ether TPM for specific industrial materials
• Sealed Polypropylene or HDPE containers for solvent baths
• Sonicator for micro-cleaning
• • UV and thermal post-curing equipment
    **** A sonicator is not required, but makes cleaning parts faster and more thorough.
    Stratasys recommends the Branson CPX8800H.

*UV and thermal post-curing equipment:
Stratasys recommends a mercury-arc flood system (1) for UV post-curing due to the broadspectrum UV required to properly post-cure certain materials. Customers producing very large parts and/or high volumes of parts would benefit from the increased throughput of a mercuryarc conveyor system (2). Dymax ECE 5000 systems are recommended to provide an optimal post-cure environment.

For dental and medical applications, the Dreve PCU LED N2 cure box is recommended.
Additionally, LOCTITE® 3D 3955 requires the use of a programmable convection oven to reach optimal end properties. Your Stratasys representative will help you determine the best solution for your application.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I configure the Origin One for Wi-Fi connection?****

No, the Origin One is not configurable for Wi-Fi connection.

Does the Origin One require a dedicated laptop to be connected at all times?****

No, the Origin One is a standalone system with a touchscreen interface for basic operation.
Print jobs are managed, prepared, and sent to the printer via GrabCAD Print or the Origin Platform on the Origin Local Hub.

How can I order new materials?****

Contact your Stratasys representative to discuss our array of specialized resins.

How much material do I need for a print?****

We recommend filling the tray with enough material resin based on the volume of your print job, plus an additional buffer of at least 300 mL of resin. For large prints or long production runs, do not exceed a resin level of 10 mm below the top of the tray.

What happens to unused material after a print?****

Unused material can generally be reused in subsequent prints. Resin can be filtered using a fine mesh filter (such as a 190µm paint filter) if contaminated with residual, cured particles after a failed print.

Do I need to bolt the printer to the floor?****

No, the printer is designed to be freestanding on a rigid platform.

Does the machine need to be level?****

The machine should be kept reasonably level for proper resin flow. Plumb level is not strictly required, though a level benchtop is recommended.

Are there any ambient light concerns?****

Yes. Material resins are sensitive to UV light, which is found in sunlight. Even though resin packaging containers are opaque, keep printers and resin away from sunlight and any other UV sources to avoid affecting material resin properties.

What is the average pot life (open container) of your materials?****

One to two weeks.

What is the average shelf life (closed container) of your materials?****

One year from manufacture date.

Is there any risk of physical injury?****

Injury may result from hands becoming trapped under the build platform or above the build arm assembly while it is descending or ascending.
