3D Printing Info and Risk Assessment

Principal Investigator*

Please enter the name of the PI overseeing the of operations of printer(s).

Printer Model(s)

Please list the make/model of the 3D printer(s) in use.

Building (location of operation)*

Please enter the names of all buildings where 3D printers are used.

Select

Room(s) of Operation*

Please enter the room number(s) of the location(s) where 3D printers are used.

Space Characterization*

Please describe the space(s) where 3D printing takes place.

Select

Technology Used*

Please identify the types of 3D printers utilized.

Select

Extrusion Filament Type*

Please select the filament type(s) used with material extrusion 3D printer(s).

Select

Materials Used in Process*

If not already addressed in the previous question addressing filament used in material extrusion printing, please describe any materials used for the printed product (e.g. specific biological materials for bioprinting, materials for technologies outside of material extrusion printing, bath or wash solutions, etc.).

Access*

Please describe who has access to this printer. Is there student access 24/7? Lab personnel access only from 8am-5pm? Restricted personnel access (i.e., locked door)?

Other Activities*

What other activities occur in this space while printing is performed?

Frequency of Operation*

How frequently will printer(s) be operated? (Hours/day, days/week)

Chemical Storage*

What other chemicals are used or stored near printing operations?

Enclosures/Filtration*

Do your 3D printers have integrated enclosures and/or local active filtrationsystems equipped with HEPA filtration for particles and activated carbon filters for VOCs?

Select

Ventilation Information*

What information do you already have about the ventilation in the space where printer operations take place (air exchange rate, pressure differential, % recirculated air, air filtering)?

Ventilation Systems

Will dedicated ventilation be used for 3D printing such as single unit local exhaust ventilation systems (fume hoods), snorkel fume extractors, or for situations where multiple printers are used,enclosed ventilated racks that exhaust to the outdoors? If so, please describe.

Future Printers

What additional 3D printing technologies or printers do you plan to purchase?
