Your Fortus 360mc, 400mc, 380mc, or 450mc Can Benefit From a 24 Month PM
Stratasys’s operator and service manual recommends a 24-month Preventative Maintenance (PM) overhaul for Fortus 360mc, 400mc, 380mc, and 450mc machines. The 24-month PM replaces several known wear components, helping improve reliability, increase uptime, maintain part quality, and extend equipment life.
What’s Included by Machine
Fortus 360mc and 400mc:
- Oven blower kit
- Axis belts
- Head blower
- Five cooling fans
Fortus 380mc and 450mc (Gen 1):
- X and Y axis belts
- Wear strips for X and Y axis linear rails
Fortus 380mc and 450mc (Gen 2):
- X and Y axis belts
- Lubrication unit for X and Y axis linear rails
- X bellows Teflon seal
- Y bellows seal
Why This Matters
24-month Preventative Maintenance kits are not included in standard service contracts. This can surprise many owners, so it is worth budgeting for the PM separately rather than assuming it is covered.
Every item in this kit is replaced annually on the larger 900mc and F900 production machines. This highlights the importance of these components for reliable uptime and smooth operation, even on a K- or T-Class system that remains in production.
If your 900mc or F900 is also due for this type of maintenance, see our Fortus 380mc, 450mc, and F900 material unlock service to learn more about what these machines can do when properly maintained.
