This SOP is meant to include all information necessary for standard operation as well as an introduction to maintenance. The team at FabLight provided multiple documents on the use of the machine, software, and plugin; this document will include the majority of that information while focusing on the tool’s usage in our space.

FabLight’s first party documents can be found here: website

If in the future any of this information becomes outdated or if you have any possible improvements, I encourage you to make the revisions so that we can all learn from one another.

The current revision of this SOP will not explain the usage of the SolidWorks plugin. It is my goal to add this in the future.

There are complementary YouTube videos which walks through the basics of safety and usage: https://youtu.be/K0y_mLI1TWQ https://youtu.be/yCWKfAJsYsw
