What resin should I use for my printer?
Best budget resin: Elegoo 3D Rapid Resin I particularly like the gray as it shows any print issues very clearly, allowing you to fix the print easily. I would use the Elegoo for those large models without too many fine details, as you’ll save quite a lot of cost.
Are there different kinds of resin for 3D printing?
Advanced resins Within this category there are three distinct groups: engineering, dental and castable. Engineering resins are materials developed to solve the most complex engineering problems thanks to the specialization of a material for a very specific application.
What is the most flexible resin?
Flexible 80A Resin is the most stiff soft-touch material in our library of Flexible and Elastic Resins, with an 80A Shore durometer to simulate the flexibility of rubber or TPU. Balancing softness with strength, Flexible 80A Resin can withstand bending, flexing, and compression, even through repeated cycles.
Can Elegoo use Anycubic resin?
They are all compatible with the two presented resins. Whether you choose Elegoo or Anycubic resin is up to you.
How do SLA print shiny?
Instructions: Use a range of incremental sandpaper grits to smooth your surface, then polish the part with acrylic cleaner and a microfiber cloth. At around 3000 grit, SLA 3D printed clear parts become glossy and very smooth to the touch. By 12000 grit, they are reflective.
Why is my resin flexible?
The main reasons your epoxy resin is flexible and soft boil down to not enough curing time, improper ratios of base resin and hardener, not mixing well, pouring too thin, expired or compromised resin, and moisture in your epoxy prior to cure- resulting in an epoxy resin that rubbery and flexible.
Is SLA resin flexible?
We designed our Rapid FLEX100 Resin for low powered LED/LCD DLP type 3D printers. The FLEX100 has an extremely high level of flexibility so you can 3D print compressible and bendable models.
Which is the best resin for a DLP printer?
Although it’s made for LCD printers Blu works for DLP printers as well. Post-processing, from washing to curing, is easy enough. Whereas most standard and even premium resins focus on quality, Siraya Tech’s tough resin is impact resistant.
