B08RZ1C39Q 3D Printer Plant Based Resin

Specifications

  • Product: Plant-based Resin
  • Precautions: Please follow the safety guidelines mentioned
    below

Precautions

  1. Please handle the resin carefully and avoid direct contact with
    skin and eyes. In case of contact, rinse with water immediately and
    seek medical attention.

  2. Keep the resin container tightly closed when not in use to
    prevent contamination.

  3. Store the resin in a cool and dry place, away from direct
    sunlight.

  4. Ensure proper ventilation in the working area and use masks and
    gloves during operation to protect against resin and its odor.

  5. Air purifiers are recommended for individuals with sensitivity
    to resin fumes.

  6. Transparent/white resin printed parts may yellow during
    post-curing. To minimize yellowing, reduce the post-curing
    time.

Support Setting Suggestions for Slicing Software

We recommend using Anycubic Photon Workshop, CHITUBOX, or Lychee
(for other compatible devices) for slicing. Follow the tips below
for successful printing:

  • Start with Medium type support settings for ordinary
    parts.

  • Refer to the support parameters provided by the slicing
    software for optimal results.

Parts Cleaning Operations

Follow the instructions below to clean the printed parts:

  1. Use 95+% ethanol/IPA or other effective resin cleaning
    solutions.

  2. Option 1: Anycubic Wash & Cure

    • Place the parts in the cleaning bucket.
    • Put the parts and platform into the Anycubic Wash & Cure
      machine for automated cleaning.
  3. Option 2: Ultrasonic Wash

    • Perform ultrasonic vibration cleaning using an appropriate
      device.
  4. Option 3: Free Wash

    • Manually clean the parts in a container with a cleaning
      solution.

Post-curing

Post-curing is an important step to ensure the final strength
and stability of the printed parts. Follow the manufacturer’s
guidelines for post-curing time and method.

Waste Liquid Treatment

Dispose of waste liquid in an appropriate manner. Sunlight or UV
lamps can be used to cure and solidify the liquid waste for safe
disposal.

FAQ

  1. The parts are not adhered to the bottom plate (partial/full):

    • Increase the exposure time of the bottom layer by 30%.
    • Level the equipment molding table according to the manual
      instructions.
  2. The formed part and the support are disconnected from the
    support connection:

    • In the slicing software, increase the depth of the support
      embedded in the part by 0.5mm.

    • Increase the support diameter and adjust the support
      distance/density as needed.

  3. Fault occurs in the entire section of the part:

    • Increase the exposure time by 20-30% for normal exposure
      parameters.

    • Reduce the platform lifting speed.

  4. Partial fault of part:

    • Check if the LCD screen is dirty and clean it with
      alcohol/IPA.

    • Inspect the surface of the release film for wear or
      damage.

    • Verify the sliced model for any bugs or corrupted files.

User Guide for Plant-based Resin
Plant-based Resin contains soybean oil extract as raw material, which can be adapted to light curing equipment in the 365~405 band. It has the advantages of low odor, good rigidity, low shrinkage, good detail performance, and high success rate. It can be used in processing of animation , cultural and creative hand-made models, detailed models, prototype parts, etc. Instructions for use under abnormal temperature conditions: The resin is recommended to be printed in the environment of 25~30. When the surrounding temperature lies in between 15~20, we recommend users to increase the exposure time by 30% from the default setting and reduce the platform lifting speed by 30%.
1. Precautions
(1) Shake the resin bottle/package until well mixed before each print. (2) Check whether there are obvious wrinkles/damages on the FEP film. If so, please replace the FEP film. (3) Check whether there is obvious dirt/excess solid residue on the surface of the LCD screen. If so, please clean it before printing. (4) If the resin has not been used in the 3D printer for more than 3 days, it is recommended to filter the resin with a filter funnel after stirring the resin evenly in the liquid tank, and then pour it back into the resin
1

container.

For more guidance, please contact technical support

(5) Please place the equipment in a well ventilated environment, and

wear masks and gloves during operation. Those PPE can effectively

protect the user from resin and its odor. Air purifier are recommended

for more sensitive user group.

(6) When the transparent/white resin printed parts undergoes

post-curing, their surfaces are more prone to yellowing compared to the

other colored parts. To avoid this, the post-curing time can be

appropriately reduced.

2.Printing parameters for printer

Please check your printer type and brand first. At the table below, you

might find your default Anycubic resin printing parameters matching the

corresponding printer (Currently mainly Anycubic).

We will add more printer types that is popularly used. The data comes from Anycubic Laboratory and is for reference only. Different printing parameters and post-processing processes will led to different results. If you encounter troubles while printing, feel free to contact Anycubic for support. We will try our best. *The processing reference parameters are suitable for the factory calibrated energy state of the specific equipment. Printing parameter must be adjusted accordingly if the UV power setting were changed.
3. Support setting suggestions for slicing software
It is recommended to use Anycubic Photon Workshop or CHITUBOX or Lychee (slicing software for other compatible devices) for slicing. There is a good chance for ordinary parts to be successfully printed if your support settings are based on the following tips. (1) We usually recommend customers to try the “Medium” type support from the start, as shown in the figure below for quick support settings.

For more guidance, please contact technical support (2) It is recommended that the depth of the embedded part of the support is 0.5mm, and the support gap is 3mm. (3) If the printed part’s section area is less than or equal to 30% of the processing area of the 3D Printer, the combination of “Medium” + “Light” can be used to complete the support design; if the part’s section area is 30% of the processing area of the equipment, the combination of “Medium” + “Heavy” can be used to complete the support design .

For more guidance, please contact technical support cleaning solvents to clean the residual resin on the printed parts. (2) Do not soak the parts in the cleaning solvent for more than 30 minutes. Swelling and damage might occur for prolonged solvent soaking. (3) After cleaning the parts, use a blower/air gun to remove the residual cleaning solution on the surface of the parts. (4) For complex parts with a large number of cavities, multiple cleaning/surface drying cycles can fully clean the parts. (5) Check if there is still residue resin on the surface of model. If so, please wash it again and dry it again. Cleaning Steps

5.Post-curing
(1) It usually takes 3~5 minutes of UV post-curing to cure the model surface. When encountering parts with complex structure, the curing time can be appropriately extended. (2) Before post-curing, please make sure that there is neither residue resin nor residue solvent on the surface of printed part (if there is, please clean and dry the model surface first). (3) Please ensure that the surface of the part is dried before curing, which can effectively avoid whitening or excess residue on the surface of the part after curing.

6. Waste liquid treatment
(1) Please DO NOT discharge the cleaning solution directly into the sewer. (2) Put the waste liquid in a transparent container under sunlight/ultraviolet light, wait until the resin inside is completely solidified and precipitated, and then filter out the solid residue. Filtered cleaning solution can be reused. (3) Firstly, the waste IPA/Ethanol can be packed in a transparent container and wait for evaporation. Secondly, place the transparent container under sunlight or ultraviolet light to solidify the remaining resin residue, and then the solid waste can be disposed according to local environmental protection regulations. The fully cured solid waste can be considered as regular plastic waste.
