Upgrade Option 2: This upgrade option, described in bulletin VC_07_01_R1, includes upgrading the software as described in Option 1 and a new design to the recoater carriage.The new software offers many new improvements including off machine vectorization (pre-calculation), advance parameter segmentation, dose factor control, gas flow standardization across the build plate, error improvements, and OPCUA interface. Upgrade Option 1: This upgrade option, described in bulletin VC_09_01_R3, includes upgrading the software to new versions of CL WRX, CL WRX Office, PLC, PILZ, and CL WRX Parameter Editor.Complete details of each option are listed in the corresponding bulletin links below. We are offering customers with the Series 4 configuration the opportunity to upgrade their machine.Ī full upgrade is recommended to take advantage of system level benefits, but partial upgrade options are available. You have been identified as a customer with a Series 4 M2 configuration, also known as UP1.

These upgrades also bring the machine in line with the continuous improvements that can be found in the next generation of the Concept Laser M2 Series 5. These are upgrades that increase the performance level of the machine beyond the capability that was initially offered with the Series 4 machine. Upgrading several critical hardware components provides better repeatability and consistency of critical process components in the optics and gas flow systems. Over the past year the GE Additive team has been working on improvements to the Concept Laser M2. The new valve has been chosen for its repeatability and stability. It was discovered the current overpressure relief valve does not meet the manufacturing specification of 150mbar for crack pressure. YC_12_01_R1:This bulletin replaces the overpressure relief valve.QC_04_01_R1:This bulletin alleviates the A02/A07 error commonly seen on the Rittal Chiller and replaces the fitting for the condensate drain lines to ease flow and minimize blockages.The replacement ventilator is properly deburred and includes a new pump parameter to improve hardware reliability. It was found that the small ventilator may not have been properly de-burred, which can result in a ventilator failure and build stop.
