Workshop to prepare your 3D parts for printing.
1. Home the printer by consulting section 2 the
homing procedur.
2. Open Creation Workshop.exe and load your
objects (STL, OBJ or AMF).
3. With the object loaded and located in the
build area check the settings of the printing
profile. Go to the “Configure” screen and open
the “Configure Slicing Profile” tab. Select the
printing profile from the “Machine Profiles” list
that matches your resin and desired resolution
for example “LCPrecision High Tensile Cream 50
Microns”.
Note: Always click “Apply Changes” to save if
you had to change any values. If you don’t click
this your data will not be re-set.
4. Now click “3D View” and check that the object
is correctly placed inside the printing area.
5. Press the slice button to start the slicing
operation. A confirmation window will show.
Always re-click the “Slice” button if you adjust
the file in any way.
6. Now check the “Slice View” screen to check that
