Resin 3D printing

Print smooth strong parts using abs like resin. Suitable for small batch production and precise parts.

SLA / Resin materials and uses

Standard Resins:

Properties: These resins are ideal for printing high-resolution models with intricate details and smooth surfaces.
Everyday Uses: They are commonly used for creating prototypes, figurines, and jewellery.

Flexible Resins:

Properties: These resins have rubber-like properties, making them ideal for printing parts that require some degree of flexibility.
Everyday Uses: They are commonly used for creating phone cases, watch bands, and other flexible products.

Tough Resins:

Properties: These resins are strong and impact-resistant.
Everyday Uses: Ideal for creating functional parts such as gears, bearings, and casings.

Castable Resins:

Properties: They have a smooth surface finish and burn out cleanly, leaving behind no residue.
Everyday Uses: These resins are designed for creating molds and lost-wax casting.

Dental Resins:

Properties: These resins are biocompatible and safe for use in the mouth.
Everyday Uses: These resins are specifically designed for creating dental models like crowns, bridges, and dentures.

Clear Resins:

Properties: These resins are transparent and have a glass-like appearance.
Everyday Uses: For creating jewellery, lenses, and other clear parts.

High Temperature Resins:

Properties: These resins are designed for use in high-temperature applications.
Everyday Uses: Creating molds for injection molding or creating parts for use in high-temperature environments.

How To Reduce Your Cost?

How much does it cost to get a 3D print? Several factors can affect prices, but the main ones are, how large the object is, what material you chose and whether you need multiples or a one-off 3D print?

3 ways to reduce costs.

Use less material by optimizing the design and reducing infill density.
Print at a lower resolution to reduce printing time and material usage.
Use a lower-cost material, such as PLA, while considering the material’s properties for suitability.

What style of Printing is Best

Additive manufacturing is a fascinating process that uses a variety of technologies and materials to create three-dimensional objects from digital files. But it’s not just about the technology and materials; it’s about choosing the right combination to suit your project’s needs.

When it comes to additive manufacturing, choosing the right material is crucial. The decision will depend on many factors, such as the end-use of the product, the required strength, and functionality. Are you looking to create a part for outdoor use, or is the feel of the product more important? These are just a few of the considerations that must be considered before settling on the material for your project.

Moreover, the number of parts required is also a critical factor to consider. The quantity may affect the most efficient manufacturing process, with some materials or technologies being better suited to mass production than others.

So before you embark on your additive manufacturing project, be sure to take into account the various factors at play and Give Us a Call. We can ensure that you choose the best material and technology for your specific needs.

Design Considerations

Additive manufacturing involves various technologies and materials to manufacture 3D parts from digital files. Choosing the appropriate material for your project depends on numerous factors, especially its intended use.

Important factors to consider when selecting the right material include:

- The required number of parts
- The desired strength and functionality
- The intended use, whether it will be used outdoors, etc.
- The tactile feel or other sensory considerations.

By thoughtfully evaluating these factors, you can select the best material for your project or parts, leading to a successful outcome.
