The Asiga Freeform Pico 2 resin workflow builds on more than a decade of development that began when Asiga introduced the world’s first LED‑based DLP 3D printer in 2011, a milestone that reshaped desktop stereolithography and set new standards for precision manufacturing. The Pico platform quickly gained international recognition, earning the MJSA Thinking Ahead Award in 2012 and establishing Asiga as a leader in compact, high‑accuracy DLP systems for jewelry, dental, audiology and engineering applications. The Freeform Pico 2 continued this lineage with a refined 385 nm optical engine, solid‑state UV LED illumination and Asiga’s SAS separation technology, enabling consistent layer formation, stable curing behavior and reliable performance with third‑party photopolymers. Its compact build volumes—ranging from 51 × 32 × 76 mm to 64 × 40 × 76 mm depending on the model—combined with native pixel resolutions of 39 µm or 50 µm make it suitable for extremely detailed parts where dimensional accuracy and surface quality are critical.
Within this open‑material ecosystem, the Asiga Freeform Pico 2 resin compatibility with Liqcreate materials is an important advantage for users who require specialized mechanical, optical or functional properties. At the time of writing, validated parameters are available for Liqcreate Flexible‑X, including exposure times, burn‑in settings, separation speeds and thermal control values optimized specifically for the Pico 2’s 385 nm DLP architecture. These settings ensure predictable polymerization and stable layer adhesion, which is essential when printing elastomeric materials on a small‑format, high‑precision DLP system. As more Liqcreate materials get validated, the Pico 2 platform is expected to support a broader range of engineering, dental and prototyping applications, leveraging the printer’s open‑material workflow and fine optical resolution. Users working with non‑optimized Liqcreate resins can still achieve reliable results by manually tuning exposure and separation parameters, and we offers direct support for parameter development when required.
Because the Asiga Freeform Pico 2 resin workflow is built around an open material philosophy, professionals can combine Asiga’s mechanical accuracy with Liqcreate’s expanding portfolio of photopolymers to achieve application‑specific performance. Whether the goal is flexible components, detailed jewelry masters, dental models or functional prototypes, the Pico 2’s stable 385 nm LED output and precise optical system provide a consistent foundation for resin calibration. As Liqcreate continues to validate additional materials for this platform, the combination of Asiga hardware and Liqcreate photopolymers remains a strong option for users who need predictable, high‑resolution DLP printing with full control over resin selection and parameter tuning.
