How To Use Crestaform Open Resin
- Always shake or mix the resin thoroughly before printing. This is especially true for Crestaform Open as pigment heterogeneity will affect print quality.
- Open the container and pour the appropriate amount of resin into the tank according to the size of the printer model.
- Make sure not to spill the resin onto the printer, LCD screen or anywhere outside of the resin tank.
- If not used for a long time, please filter the resin and pour the resin into the storage container.
Recommended Cleaning
- Soak the print in a clean IPA bath for a minimum of 5 minutes. Alternatively, rinse the part with IPA until all the visible uncured resin has been removed. Reusing IPA in multiple cleans can reduce the cleanliness and clarity of a print.
- Leave the print to dry off any residual solvent prior to post-curing.
Recommended Post-Curing
- Post cure as soon as possible after completion of print.
- Post-cure every print for a minimum of 10 minutes under a dedicated curing UV light operating at 405nm wavelength. Alternatively, leave the print to cure for a minimum of 2 hours under direct sunlight.
- For FormLabs 3D Printers, follow FormLabs recommended post cure time (30-60 min).
- Temperature-assisted UV curing will increase the rigidity of the print.
Typical Printing Parameters*
1Printed using a light power of 2.3 mW/cm2
2 Printed using a light power of 5.0 mW/cm2
* It is recommended that 3D resin exposure finder test prints are undertaken to find optimum cure settings[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
