The technical data sheet of each Liqcreate resin can be found in this section. All mechanical data is collected according to the measurements explained in this article. Mechanical data of the resin is acquired by 3D printing a sample of the resin and post-processing and post curing it according to the instructions per resin. Mechanical [...]

From the beginning of SLA and DLP 3D-printing, rigid resins were the main available materials. Rigid resins are easy to print and do not need a great amount of skill and knowledge about the printing process. With new developments in resin technology, flexible, tough and high elongation resins are widespread available. With the development of Premium [...]

The basics of resin 3D-printing are based upon the exact curing of resin at a specific location in the XYZ space. Within regular 3D-printers, the Z resolution is better defined as its layer thickness. while the XY resolution is defined by the imaging technology that makes the resin cure. From the earlier days, these were [...]

If you own any kind of 3D-printer, you must have heard about Lithophanes by now. Lithophanes are 3D-printed images that will turn into stunning pictures when a light is placed behind the lithophane. Before resin 3D-printers got affordable by the introduction of more affordable LCD printers, FDM printing technology was mostly used. These FDM printers [...]

During resin 3D-printing, the liquid photopolymers polymerize and turn into a solid. If the shrinkage is big, it will ruin the dimensional accuracy of your end-part. So you want to limit the amount of shrinkage as much as possible. This could be done by first try to eliminate the most shrinkage by smart material choice. [...]
