Congratulations!
You have just purchased a new type of 3D printer 

using Daylight Polymer Printing (DPP) technology. 
This is a patent applied-for method of image crea-
tion that hardens liquid with the normal visible light 
emitted from an LCD screen. This revolutionary 
system is a new method of Additive Manufacturing 
that uses the same intensity and part of the spec-
trum that we use to see. This is the energy provi-
ding source that initiates the free radical or catio-
nic polymerisation necessary to change the liquid 
photopolymer resin into your hardened object. The 
light emitted from the screen is not modified and 
the images are safe for viewing. 

These are some of the advantages of DPP techno-

logy:

i)  Low cost- We use high resolution low cost LCD 

screens that are widely available in monitors, 
tablets, mobile phones and televisions. These 
provide phenomenal value for money, which 
we pass onto you.

ii) Reliable- Because we use visible light which 

is designed to function with LCDs and not UV 
light which shortens LCD screens life.

iiI) Very large scale- The screen lights every pixel, 

which in turn exposes every voxel, so you can 
create large areas of custom product simul-
taneously. As the format grows this makes it 
much more efficient than all alternative means. 

iv) Very low energy usage- It uses the amount of 

electricity to run a tablet, this is an order of 
magnitude lower than that required to operate 
a laser or a digital light projector.

v) Low adhesion at the build interface- the heat 

created by the screen is very low and the small 
amount of initiation energy in the polymrisation 
creates very little attraction to the vat film.

vi)  Limited over-exposure- Using this low intensity 

visible light, the energy is dissipated very quic-
kly, it either strikes a photoinitiator and creates 
a free radical or it loses all the energy hitting 
solid material, so there is very limited ability to  
over-expose and create solid parts where you 
don’t want them.
