PLATFORM
an integral part of the printer, to which models adhere during the polymerization of resin.
Also, it rises and lowers itself during the printing process so that each layer can solidify
and the resin can be equally distributed in the tank. It can easily be removed or installed
back in place.
RESIN SENSOR
the component placed in the corner of the resin vat which constantly measures the resin
level and, in the case of resin shortage, it transmits a signal to the resin pump to load
more material.
RESIN VAT
the container in which liquid resin is kept throughout the entire printing process. It
consists of a metal frame and a rack with a FEP film. The resin vat is secured to the printer’s
housing directly on the LCD screen.
STARTER KIT
several pieces of equipment that are put together in one set and delivered with the
printer. The set contains tools and protective equipment including, for example, FEP films,
funnels and spatulas. The tools from the starter kit are required for operating the printer
as well as for performing maintenance work.
SUPPORT STRUCTURES
special 3D printed structures in the form of pillars which ensure that the whole model
adheres to the platform and doesn’t fall into the resin tank during the printing process.
Supports are printed with the same material as the model. Once the printing is done,
supports have to be removed from the model by hand or using pliers.
TOUCHSCREEN
the display screen placed at the front of the printer, which enables fast and intuitive
navigation through the device’s menu. The screen also displays information about the
current printing process and other information concerning the printer.
UV COVER
the orange cover placed on top of the printer responsible for protecting liquid resin from
ambient UV light. It also helps to keep unpleasant smells of resin inside the printing
chamber.
