When you want to use your 3D printer to create specific models, there are several options when it comes to the material that you can utilise to create such objects. Based on the type of 3D printer that you are using; the extruder nozzle will be capable of reaching specific temperatures – determining the types of filaments and/or resins that can be used with that specific model.
3D printing resins offer an alternative to standard filaments and exude similar characteristics to specified filaments. However, instead of being in a solid state of matter, it is already in a liquid state – making it easier to use. The other side of the proverbial coin is that most resin builds must cure via UV light exposure, or similar light exposure, to allow the model to harden. Let’s look at some examples of 3D printing resin that you can buy from 3D Unique:
Creality Transparent Fast UV-Curable Resin
When you want a 3D printing resin that delivers fast curing applications, Creality’s selection of fast UV-curable resins is your answer. The transparent version offers a rigid texture that allows the resin to cure quickly under UV exposure – minimising any warping possibilities during the curing phase. This specific type of resin is suitable to LCD and DLP 3D printers.
This 405-nm standard rigid resin option delivers superior fluidity that effectively increases the possible printing speeds when using this resin for your builds. After curing, the 3D models that are produced by this resin have great stability and reduced shrinkage qualities. You can also expect smooth surfaces on your 3D models once the resin has fully cured.
Flashforge FH1200 Dental Castable Resin
If you need a solution to a specific 3D printing resin that is designed for dental applications, Flashforge’s FH1200 dental castable resin is your answer. It is designed to deliver a non-toxic material that has reduced odours when printing and casting dental models. It offers rapid curing as well, with high levels of detail that can be obtained when using this specific resin.
Printed dental models have strong resistance against force, display flexible qualities, and burns out cleanly – without any traces of ash or residue. These qualities make the FH1200 resin a perfect candidate for dental applications.
