Formfutura?s Engineering LCD Series photopolymer 3D printing resins are specifically engineered for compatibility and excellent processability with all type of open source LCD / LED / MSLA 3D printers.
Our Engineering LCD Series ? Strong Resin is an opaque black colored 3D printing resin that finds its "strength" in a unique combination of excellent flexural strength properties combined with impressive tensile strength properties. The combination of strenght with stiffness make FormFutura?s Engineering LCD Series ? Strong Resin a very versatile 3D printing resin for a wide range of heavy duty applications.

Manufacturing aids
Short-run manufacturing
Preparation(s) before starting to print
Shake the bottle for at least 2 minutes before each use.
After shaking the bottle, leave the resin to rest for 10 minutes to let air bubbles get out of the resin
The resin can be poured back from the vat into the bottle once your print is finished
Always use protective measurements like safety glasses and nitrile gloves when handling resins.
Post-processing
We do advise you to post-process your 3D print in order to achieve the material properties
Rinse your 3D printed object in IPA or (Bio)Ethanol for approximately 5 minutes
An ultrasonic cleaner is preferred/recommended
Make sure that IPA and/or (Bio)Ethanol rinsed objects are perfectly dry before further post-curing
Place the rinsed parts in a well-ventilated area for at least 30 minutes, or use pressurized air for at least 2 minutes
Cure your object in a high power curing chamber for approximately 20-30 minutes at 65° C
The preferred curing wavelength is between 300-410nm
Safety
Please always be aware that when 3D printing with resins that you are working with chemicals and that you should always be cautious and use the personal protective equipment as stipulated in our safety data sheets.
Always wear Respiratory Protection when sanding/cutting the resin object.
Always use nitrile gloves when handling resins and uncured resin objects.
