Origin Local Hub
The Origin One Local Hub is designed for customers that are 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 with
two exceptions: · It contains no transmitting components. · It is configured
to connect through the 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.
Facility IT professionals may prefer for the Origin Local Hub to be on a
separate air-gapped network, rather than the shared facility LAN.
Connecting to the Origin Local Hub
The Origin One Local printer and Origin Local Hub are connected through a
facility network at installation. Interactions with the Origin Local Hub are
performed through a workstation browser or GrabCAD Print.

Material Settings
For every layer, the build platform moves through a cycle of three main
stages: approach, exposure, and separation. There are eight user-defined
settings that adjust the duration, distance, or speed of some part of the
print process for three regions: First Layer, Transition, and Model.
· The First Layer settings apply specific settings to only the first layer to
ensure build platform adhesion and accuracy.
· The Transition region is a user-defined number of layers after the first
layer where specific settings are applied to improve build platform adhesion
and accuracy.
· The Model region consists of all consecutive layers beyond the Transition
region where specific settings are applied to improve print speed.

· Exposure Delay: After the build platform has completed its approach, the
printer waits this duration before turning on the projector.
· Exposure Duration: The amount of time the projector turns on and projects
each layer.
· Separation Distance: After Exposing, the build platform moves upward this
amount to separate the part from the tray window.
· Advancement Delay: After the build platform has completed its separation, it
waits this amount of time at the top of travel before advancing.
· Start Distance: After exposure delay and duration, the build platform moves
upward this distance in millimeters before continuing to the full separation
distance.
· Start Speed: The speed at which the build platform moves upward during the
start distance region of separation.
· End Distance: After reaching the separation distance and waiting the
advancement delay, the build platform slows down at this distance from the

Solutions for First Layer Adhesion Issues
Issue: The part fails to adhere to the build platform or the part detaches
from the build platform mid print.
Possible root causes include the following: Insufficient first layer projector
exposure duration, Insufficient first layer projector exposure delay time,
build platform calibration issues, separation forces are too high, irradiance
degradation issues, build job not properly oriented to the build platform
(build prep error).
1. Insufficient first layer projector exposure duration.
· Parts require sufficient first layer projector exposure duration to ensure
adhesion to the build platform. If the first layer projector exposure duration
is too low, then parts do not adhere properly.
© Copyright 2022-2024 Stratasys. All rights reserved.
Page 77
Finding a Remedy
Troubleshooting Issues and Solutions
· Solution: Increase first layer projector exposure duration.
2. Insufficient first layer projector exposure delay time.
· Projector exposure delay times affect the thickness of any given layer.
Lower projector exposure delay times result in thicker layers, while longer
projector exposure delay times result in thinner layers down to a minimum
thickness. If the first layer projector exposure delay time is too short,
first layer adhesion issues result in a thicker first layer, which is unable
to be cured through, may occur.
· Solution: Increase the first layer projector exposure delay time.
3. Build platform calibration not performed or performed incorrectly.
· The purpose of the build platform calibration procedure is to ensure that
the build platform is parallel to and in contact with the midplate glass. This
is critical to first layer performance as this will effectively dictate your
first layer thickness (along with exposure delay). Like the insufficient first
layer exposure delay issue mentioned previously, having too thick of a first
layer causes first layer adhesion issues due to the inability to cure through
that thickness.
· Solution: Recalibrate the build platform following the procedure described
in “Calibrating the Build Platform” (page 47).
4. Separation forces are too high.
· Three major factors play into separation forces: the viscosity of the resin,
the stickiness of the resin in its green state, and the proximity of the part
or build platform to the midplate glass. Separation forces are generally the
highest on the first few layers, and decrease as the number of layers
increases. If separation forces are too high on the first layer, it is
possible that the layer can detach from the platform.The only exception to
this general trend is if a full build area “brick” part is being built, in
which case, the separation force will remain fairly consistent throughout the
print.
· Solution: Decrease separation start speed of the first layer. Alternatively,
use a CSV override to carefully control settings on a per layer basis. This
allows for controlling layer thicknesses and separation speeds, which are
directly related to experienced forces.
5. Irradiance Degradation
· Ensuring the projector is at the correct irradiance is crucial to ensuring
the success of any print regardless of material. If the projector irradiance
has degraded to such a point that it is unable to reach the minimum threshold
required for the initiation of polymerization for a given material, then the
build job will fail.
· Solution: Measure and adjust projector irradiance such that the projector is
5 mW/cm2 at center point. Contact a Stratasys representative for the proper
procedure for measuring and adjusting projector irradiance.

Troubleshooting Issues and Solutions
Solutions for Transition Region Adhesion Issues
Issue: The first layer adheres to the platform, but the transition region does
not adhere to the first layer.
Possible root causes: Insufficient transition region projector exposure
duration, Insufficient transition region projector exposure delay time,
separation forces are too high, or irradiance degradation issue.
1. Insufficient transition region projector exposure duration.
· Any given layer requires sufficient projector exposure duration to ensure
adhesion to the previous layer.
· Solution: Increase transition region projector exposure duration.
2. Insufficient transition region projector exposure delay time.
· Projector exposure delay times affect the thickness of any given layer.
Lower projector exposure delay times result in thicker layers while longer
projector exposure delay times result in thinner layers until a minimum
thickness is reached. Thus, interlayer adhesion issues will occur if the
projector exposure delay time is too short. The resulting overly thick layers
will be unable to be properly cured.
· Solution: Increase transition region projector exposure delay time.
3. Separation forces are too high.
· Three important factors in separation force are the viscosity of the resin,
the stickiness of the resin in the green state, and the proximity of the part
or build platform to the midplate glass. Separation forces are generally
highest on the first few layers, and they decrease as the layers advance. The
only exception to this general trend is if a full build area “brick” is being
printed. In this case, the separation force remains fairly consistent
throughout the build job. If separation forces are too high on the first
layer, it is possible that the layer will detach from the platform.
· Solution: Decrease the separation start speed of the transition region.
Alternatively, a CSV override is used to carefully control settings on a per
layer basis. This allows for effective control of layer thicknesses, and
separation speeds which are directly related to experienced forces.
4. Irradiance Degradation
· Correct projector irradiance is a key component in ensuring the success of a
build job. If projector irradiance degrades to the point that it is unable to
reach the minimum threshold required to initiate the polymerization for the
material, then the build job will fail.
· Solution: Measure and adjust projector irradiance such that the projector is
5 mW/cm2 at centerpoint. Contact a Stratasys representative for the procedure
to measure and adjust the projector irradiance.

Troubleshooting Issues and Solutions
Solutions for Unwanted Material Layer Lines on Parts
Issue: Printed parts exhibit unwanted material layer lines.
Possible root causes: Improper tray seal, deformed teflon membrane, layer
shifts due to build platform movement, changing print settings or pausing mid
print, teflon and midplate glass cleanliness, or solid or cured residue in
tray.
1. Improper tray seal.
· The tray must be properly sealed for a successful build job. A good tray
seal prevents resin from leaking into the printer. This also ensures the
teflon membrane is laminated flat against the midplate glass during printing.
If the teflon membrane does not laminate flat against the midplate glass,
unwanted material layer lines on the part may occur due to a deformed layer.
· Solution: Ensure the tray seals correctly by using the procedure described
in “Filling and Installing a Tray Into the Printer” (page 30). If the tray
does not seal properly, take the corrective steps to ensure a good seal.
2. Deformed Teflon membrane.
· The teflon membrane is a consumable part. After repeated printing, it will
show signs of deformation. Like the improper tray seal issue discussed above,
a deformed teflon membrane can cause unwanted material layer lines on the part
due to a deformed layer.
· Solution: Disassemble the tray, clean the tray and gaskets, and replace the
teflon membrane according to the procedure described in “Replacing Tray
Sheets” (page 65).
3. Layer shifts due to unwanted build platform movement.
· The build platform and build arm must remain as rigid as possible during a
print. If the build platform or build arm moves during print, layer shifts on
the part will result. This typically occurs due to improper build platform
installation or calibration.
· Solution: Confirm the build platform is properly installed by attempting to
move it manually. If it can be moved, install and calibrate the build
platform.
4. Changing print settings or pausing the system mid print.
· Changing print settings or pausing a build will result in unwanted material
layer lines.
· Solution: Avoid pausing build jobs unless absolutely necessary. Currently,
there are three defined build job regions in the material settings: First
layer, Transition region, and Model region. As such, there will always be at
least two material layer lines per part. A csv override in the transition
regions can mitigate the prominence of the layer lines.
5. Teflon and midplate glass cleanliness.
· Clean teflon and midplate glass is critical to printer performance.
Performing a print on a dirty midplate glass or with a dirty sheet of teflon
(bottom surface) can cause the teflon to stick to the midplate glass and not
delaminate completely. This can result in the layer becoming deformed.
· Solution: Inspect the midplate glass and the teflon membrane. If dirty,
clean them using the procedure described in “Cleaning the Midplate Glass”
(page 60).

Finding a Remedy
Troubleshooting Issues and Solutions
6. Solid or cured residue in the tray.
· Solid material within the resin tray can affect build job quality and result
in part failures. When the size of the solid pieces exceeds the build job
layer height (which is generally the case as we set the default to 100um
layers) the pieces can become wedged between the midplate glass and the build
job.
This prevents the build platform from driving down to the desired position.
The result is an increase in layer thickness that can cause unwanted material
layer lines if the projector exposure duration is able to cure through the
additional thickness. Complete or partial delamination can result if the
projector exposure duration is unable to cure through the additional
thickness.
· Solution: Inspect the tray for any solid residue. Filter the resin if any is
found.
Solutions for Part Delamination Issues
Issue: Printed part has complete or partial delamination. Delaminations is
defined as a clean break at the interface of two layers. Delaminations always
have a clean, straight, or non-jagged break.
Possible Root Causes: Insufficient projector exposure duration in the model
region, Insufficient projector exposure delay in the model region,
Insufficient separation distance in the model region, separation forces are
too high, or solid or cured residue in tray.
1. Insufficient model region projector exposure duration.
· Any given layer requires sufficient projector exposure duration to ensure
adhesion to the previous layer.
· Solution: Increase model region projector exposure duration.
2. Insufficient model region projector exposure delay time.
· Projector exposure delay times affect the thickness of any given layer.
Lower projector exposure delay times result in thicker layers, while longer
projector exposure delay times will result in thinner layers down to a minimum
thickness. If the first layer projector exposure delay time is too short,
first layer adhesion issues resulting in a thicker first layer, which is
unable to be cured through may occur.
· Solution: Increase model region projector exposure delay time.
3. Insufficient separation distance in the model region.
· The separation distance allows for proper separation of the layer from the
Teflon while also permitting proper resin to flow into the area previously
occupied by the cured layer. If the separation distance is too low, partial
separation from the Teflon membrane may result. This can then result in either
a partial or complete delamination.
· Solution: Increase separation distance in the model region.
4. Separation forces too high.
· Three important factors in separation force are the viscosity of the resin,
the stickiness of the resin in the green state, and the proximity of the part
or build platform to the midplate glass.
Separation forces are generally highest on the first few layers, and they
decrease as the layers advance. The only exception to this general trend is if
a full build area “brick”

is being printed. In this case, the separation force remains fairly consistent
throughout the build job. If separation forces are too high on the first
layer, it is possible that the layer will detach or delaminate from the
previous layer.
· Solution: Decrease the separation start speed of the transition region.
Alternatively, a CSV override is used to carefully control settings on a per
layer basis. This allows for effective control of layer thicknesses, and
separation speeds which are directly related to experienced forces.
5. Solid or cured residue in tray.
· Solid material within the resin tray can affect build job quality and result
in part failures. When the size of the solid pieces exceeds the build job
layer height (which is generally the case as we set the default 100um layers)
the pieces can become wedged between the midplate glass and the build job.
This prevents the build platform from driving down to the desired position.
The result is an increase in layer thickness that can cause unwanted material
layer lines if the projector exposure duration is able to cure through the
additional thickness. Complete or partial delamination can result if the
projector exposure duration is unable to cure through the additional
thickness.
· Solution: Inspect the tray for any solid residue and filter the resin if any
is found.
