The Beam3D Prism is a 2K RGB LCD resin 3D printer. Thanks to its open-source material system, it is fully compatible with Liqcreate high-performance resins. Below you will find the optimized exposure times and settings to ensure successful prints with engineering, creative, and modeling photopolymers.d. Most resins can work on this printer, however, no pre-settings are available. Contact us if you need support or have any questions.
| Resin | Layer thickness | Curing time (seconds) | Remark |
| Premium White | 100 µm | 13 | First layers 2 x 180 seconds |
| 50 µm | 11 | First layers 2 x 150 seconds | |
| 35 µm | 9 | First layers 2 x 120 seconds | |
| Premium Black | 100 µm | 13 | First layers 2 x 180 seconds |
| 50 µm | 11 | First layers 2 x 150 seconds | |
| 35 µm | 9 | First layers 2 x 120 seconds | |
| Premium Model | 100 µm | 13 | First layers 2 x 180 seconds |
| 50 µm | 11 | First layers 2 x 150 seconds | |
| 35 µm | 9 | First layers 2 x 120 seconds | |
| Strong-X | 100 µm | 25 | First layers 2 x 180 seconds |
| 50 µm | 23 | First layers 2 x 150 seconds | |
| 35 µm | 21 | First layers 2 x 150 seconds |
Pro-tip RGB vs. Mono: Because the Prism uses an RGB LCD screen, exposure times are generally longer than newer monochrome printers. For Liqcreate engineering resins like Strong-X, ensure your environment is at least 20°C/68°F for optimal flow.
About the Beam3D Prism resin 3D-printer
Beam3D Prism resin 3D-printer specifications
The Beam3D Prism resin 3D-printer has a 120 x 70 x 150 mm build volume, parallel LED array, 2K RGB LCD screen, all-metal design, auto-leveling, resin calibration, multiple supported slicer.
All major slicers
The Prism supports all major slicers, and will continue to be updated as the software for SLA printing evolves.
The 57 watt parallel LED array drives uniform light distribution across the entire build plate, edge to edge.
The leveling system actions at the beginning of every print and when homing the machine.
Magnetic removable build plate
Prism is a resin printer with a 2K LCD screen that allows for high resolution prints that look like finished products.
In addition to delivering files, you are able to: start, stop, pause, edit profiles, and adjust printer settings.
FAQ – Freqently asked questions
Q: Is the Beam3D Prism compatible with 3rd party resins?
A: You can adjust profiles directly via the printer’s WiFi interface or through your slicer. The Prism supports all major slicers for custom profile editing.
A: The Prism uses an RGB LCD screen. While this provides some detail, it blocks more UV light than monochrome screens, requiring longer exposure times.
