Validation
Tests should be conducted prior to production to determine the time and light intensity
required to fully cure your resin. The following approaches may be used to validate the
curing process.
Set Exposure Time, Determine Intensity
Users can specify a cure time and, through empirical testing, determine the intensity
required to achieve a full cure. As with any manufacturing process, it is advisable to
incorporate a safety factor.
