Key features of Engineering Series Heavy Duty resin
- Bending strength of Engineering Series Heavy Duty resin is 135 MPa. Temperature resistance of the product is 128°C
- Exhibit high accuracy and low shrinkage. Finished models are rigid and tough
- May emit a low odor during printing
- Engineering Series Heavy Duty resin is compatible with open source 3D printers that use light in the wavelength range of 385nm to 405nm to cure the print material
- Main applications for FormFutura Heavy Duty resin: low volume injection molds, functional prototyping, production aids, jigs and fixtures
Steps to follow before printing
- Shake the bottle for at least 2 minutes before each use.
- Afterwards, let the resin stand for about 10 minutes to allow air bubbles to escape from the resin
- After printing, unused resin can be transferred from the printer tank to the bottle
|
Always wear protective equipment when handling the resin:gogglesand nitrile gloves. |
Final processing of the finished 3D printout
- Ready model should be rinsed in isopropyl alcohol (IPA) or bioethanol for about 5 minutes.
- The manufacturer recommends the use of ultrasonic cleaner
- Before further curing check if the model is completely dry after rinsing
- Place the rinsed parts in a well-ventilated room for at least 30 min. (Compressed air can also be used for at least 2 minutes)
- Cure the objects in a special chamber for 20 to 30 minutes at 65°C
- Recommended curing wavelength is from 300 nm to 410 nm
- Respiratory protection must be worn when grinding resin
