For a long time it was assumed that only the large 3D printing/additive manufacturing machines, and especially the ones printing with metal materials, required proper ventilation or other efforts to ensure operator safety. These are usually installed by the vendor, who ensures they are safe to operate in the designated location.
Recent research reveals that even inexpensive desktop 3D printers should be properly ventilated as well.
So, before you begin printing parts, it’s a good idea to ensure your printer is properly installed.
