*We recommend setting the first layer exposure duration to 35-40s when printing with HD gray resin.
3.2 Post-Processing
- Remove Print: Carefully remove the printed model from the build plate.
- Support Removal: Remove any necessary support structures. The resin is designed for easy support removal, even for delicate parts.
- Water Washing: Thanks to hydrophilic agents, the resin is water-washable. Rinse the printed model thoroughly with water to remove residual liquid resin.
- Ukwelapha: After washing, cure the model under UV light according to your printer's recommendations to achieve optimal hardness and strength.
Environmental Note: Avoid direct wastewater disposal into the sewer system to protect groundwater from contamination.
4. Ukugcinwa kanye nokugcinwa
Proper maintenance and storage will prolong the life of your resin and ensure consistent print quality.
- Isitoreji: Store the resin in a sealed container in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and dust.
- Impilo Yeshelufu: The resin has a shelf life of 1 year.
- Unused Resin: Filter any unused resin from the vat back into its original bottle for future use.
- Ukuhlanza: Clean your resin vat and build plate thoroughly after each print session.
5. Ukuxazulula izinkinga
Nazi ezinye zezinkinga ezivamile nezisombululo zazo ezingaba khona:
- Print Failure: Ensure correct exposure settings for your printer model (refer to the table in Section 3.1). Check for proper bed leveling and sufficient support structures.
- Greasy or White Stains on Prints: This resin has a lower water absorption rate to mitigate such issues. Ensure thorough washing with clean water and proper curing.
- Ukuqhekeka: The water-washable formula is designed to make cured prints less prone to cracking. Ensure prints are fully cured and not exposed to excessive stress immediately after printing.
- Poor Detail/Accuracy: Verify your printer's calibration and ensure the resin is well-mixed before use.
