Recommendation
For your safety, we recommend using gloves and a spatula when handling this product.
For cleaning your parts, prefer the product Resinaway or isopropyl alcohol.
Instructions for Use
(1) Before use:
Shake the liquid resin before use; Clean the resin tank and build platform to maintain the resin tank bottom’s light transmission.
(2) During use:
Unscrew the cap and add resin to the tank according to equipment requirements; Select the correct print settings and parameters for printing.
(3) After use:
After printing, please use the appropriate tools for post-processing, including a blade, diagonal pliers, tweezers, containers, gloves; a cleaning solution with ethanol (≥95%), lactate, or isopropyl alcohol;
(4) Post-processing steps:
A. Remove the printed model from the build platform with a blade;
B. Soak the model in the cleaning solution, rinse or ultrasonic wash it, then remove and drain; ANYCUBIC washing and curing machines are recommended for better results.
C. Appropriate treatment such as support removal, polishing, coloring, etc.
Precautions
- Ideal storage conditions for unpolymerized resin are a cool, dark place at room temperature, protected from light, avoiding high temperatures or sunlight.
- Suggested usage temperature is 18 to 35 °C. Too low a temperature may affect printing results; resin can be properly preheated before use (not exceeding 60 °C).
- If resin pigment settles, it can be used after stirring or shaking.
- To ensure resin performance, please remove the model promptly after cleaning to avoid prolonged soaking in water.
- To ensure mechanical properties of the model, please perform post-curing in time after cleaning and drying.
- To ensure ideal performance of the curable material, it is necessary to control the intensity and duration of the light source after curing:
(1) Mercury lamp or LED light source intensity is 5 to 10 mW/m² and duration does not exceed one hour (self-regulation);
(2) Sunlight exposure time (summer) is about 1 hour;
(3) Proximity or prolonged exposure to intense light sources, such as high-pressure mercury lamps, is prohibited.
(4) It is recommended to print in a dark room or cover with a lid during printing, as resin is a photosensitive material.
