3D Resin Printing

strong use cases:

  • printing extremely fine detail
  • transparency of clear resin is key to design
  • sheer strength of resin is critical
  • significant variables in setting up g-code for filament printing is prohibitive
  • prototyping, creating a component to connect different media, printing a master design to create a mold from (also use cases critical to filament printing)

not useful if:

  • range of colors (without post-processing) is required
  • time commitment including post-processing is prohibitive
  • scale/ build volume needs to be as large as possible
  • expense of resin is prohibitive

Form2

  • loaded with clear or black resin
  • build volume:
    14.5 w × 14.5 d × 17.5 cm h;
    5.7″ w × 5.7″ d × 6.9″ h

Form3

  • loaded with clear or black resin
  • build volume:
    14.5 w  × 14.5 d  × 18.5 h cm;
    5.7″ w × 5.7″ d × 7.3″ h
