MILL BATH FOR CARBON FIBRE PROCESSING

Project Type

Manufacturing

Date

April 2023

INTRODUCTION
Carbon fiber processing and cutting results in dust particles that are harmful to the human body. To combat this, mill baths are used when processing carbon fiber. The carbon fiber panel is submerged in water which is used to trap the dust particles that are released during processing. The dust-filled water can then be disposed of when the processing is finished.

SET UP
-The mill bath is attached to the X-Carve using tape and adhesive
-The support magnets, clamps, and washers are placed tightly into the mill bath and the carbon fiber plate is placed on top and secured tightly
-The mill bath is then filled up with water to stop carbon fiber particles from getting airborne

CLEAN UP
- Use the wet and dry vacuum cleaner to suck out the water in the mill bath or just drain it out into a container using the stop valve.
- Use the wet and dry vacuum cleaner to remove any dust on your part and clean the surface of it.
