How flexible is a flexible 3d-printing resin?

Recent developments in resin based 3D-printing materials made it possible to 3D-print flexible, elastic and soft resins. Before these developments, flexible materials or TPU (Thermoplastic polyurethanes) were only available for FDM and laser sinter printers (SLS). With the development of flexible, elastic and soft 3D-printing resins for SLA, DLP and MSLA 3D-printers, everybody can now [...]

Explained & tested: Anti-Aliasing(AA) & Blur in resin 3D-printing

Several 3D-printing techniques like SLA, MSLA and DLP are used to cure photosensitive resin layer by layer and form a 3D-printed object. To get a 3D-printed part, a DLP printer uses a DMD chip to expose the right pixels in each layer. In a MSLA 3D-printer, this is done with an LCD screen. Both images [...]

Explained: 2K, 4K & 8K resolution, 3D-printers and resins

In the beginning of DLP 3D-printers, the jargon were quite easy. There were mainly HD projectors available and in some exotic models, the manufacturers chose for a 4K DLP projector. In today’s hardware and material landscape, the different techniques and marketing expressions are endless and sometimes confusing. In this article we explain the differences in [...]

Sticky resin prints and how to solve

When using new materials in resin 3D-printing, they sometimes need a bit different post-processing. For instance when changing from rigid to flexible resin materials, the finished products can sometimes feel sticky. In this article we explain why the parts are sticky and what you can do about it. if you have any questions, feel free [...]

How can I change settings in Chitubox?

Next to Photon workshop, Lychee Slicer and the Prusa Slicer, Chitubox slicer is one of the mostly used 3D-printing programs to prepare a print job. Most entry and middle-level resin based 3D-printers can be operated through Chitubox and after a few upgrades, even its free version has some powerful tools.   What is the best [...]

10 common resin 3D-printing fails and how to solve them

Resin 3D-printing is more complicated than many other 3D-printing techniques. This is due to the many different factors involved in the 3D-printing process. In this article we explain the most common resin 3D-printing defects and how to solve them. If you don’t like reading, Hiro Creations shared a video on his tips and tricks how [...]

Is DLP faster than SLA?

in most cases DLP is faster than SLA. A DLP printer will expose the complete build plate at once compared to the SLA printer in which the laser has to touch every single spot. According to SLA printer manufacturer Formlabs: “As a rule of thumb, this results in SLA 3D printers being comparable or faster [...]

Liqcreate and Shining3D collaborate on resin 3D-printing

Shining3D and Liqcreate work together on resin 3D-printing At Liqcreate we recently received an Shining3D AccuFab-L4K / AccuFab-L4K in our testing laboratory. The Liqcreate resin engineers are collaborating with Shining3D to optimize resins and add these resin profiles for our customers in the AccuFab database. Almost all of our resins are optimized on these resin 3D-printers by […]
