What is nFEP and what is the difference with regular FEP in resin 3D-printing?

All MSLA 3D-printers and some DLP printers use a transparent film on the bottom of the resin tank. This transparent film is important for some reasons. It is the bottom of the resin tank and holds all the resin in the tank. Additionally it has to be transparent that the light of the LCD screen [...]

Cheapest resin 3d-printers & compatible resins

With the introduction of the LCD based resin 3D-printer, a lot of affordable resin 3D-printers were introduced. The first printers were based on RGB-LCD screens and needed quite some maintenance and longer exposure times. Currently the technology evolved and monochrome LCD screens were introduced. This reduced the maintenance and print times significantly making it an [...]

Differences between the Peopoly Phenom resin 3D-printer series

Peopoly started out as a personal project between 2 friends enjoy building 3D printers in 2015.
