RESIN TANK
the container in which liquid resin is kept throughout the entire printing process. It
consists of a metal frame and a rack with a double-layered FEP film. The resin tank is
secured to the printer’s housing directly on the LCD screen with two screws.
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.
ULTRASONIC CLEANER
a device which cleans printed objects from liquid resin remains. This process also helps
to avoid streaks that can appear on the surface of models after curing in UV light. The
Ultrasonic Cleaner uses high frequency sound waves and liquid detergent. Cleaning time
depends on the size of the model, but it shouldn’t exceed three minutes. Longer cleaning
time causes the liquid to heat up.
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.
