HC: I imagine it is their process, or perhaps it is the anti-stick coating diffusing the curing light. As for cost — this seems entirely practical. I bought a linear stage w/ stepper for $150.

While we've certainly heard of epoxy resins that harden when exposed to light, usually all of the substance has to be exposed. A new additive causes resin to solidify when even only a bit of it ...

When the foot is in place and fully formed to the Prethotic, the light is turned on, curing the resin and creating a custom-fitted, composite orthotic. The orthotic is fully cured in ~2 minutes. When ...

A one-part resin that requires no catalyst or mixing, has an indefinite pot life, and cures in seconds with minimal emissions when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light - it sounds too good to be true. So ...

Smartphone-Based 3D Printer Uses LCD Light To Cure Resin By Shane McGlaun Dec. 22, 2015 9:00 am EST Many of the 3D printers out on the market today need light to help the resin used for printing ...

A two-day international symposium on Light Curing Resin Materials was held at Dalhousie University, Faculty of Dentistry on May 29th and 30th, 2014. The symposium was attended by 40 key opinion ...

Dental material manufacturer Ultradent Products has released J-Temp temporary resin, a premixed, light-cured resin. The resin can be used for procedures, including bite ramps and temporary occlusal ...

Since the resin is sensitive to light and heat, it needs to be stored meticulously, otherwise, it could be rendered useless. Build volume also gets in the way of the practicality of resin 3D printers.
