Product Description
zDental Model is a light-curing resin specifically designed for the
production of dental models using 3D LCD printers. It is a low viscosity model
material that is ideal for diagnostic models and orthodontic appliance models.
The resin offers excellent precision,long-term dimensional stability, high
reliability, superior fit, and easy cleaning. zDental Model also has excellent
anti-sedimentation activity, making it easy to handle.
Intended Use
zDental Model is intended for use in the following applications:
- Diagnostic models
- Die models
- Implant models
- Orthodontic models
Contraindications
zDental Model contains (meth)acrylate and phosphine oxide. It should not be
used in patients with a known hypersensitivity (allergy) to these ingredients.
If an allergic reaction occurs, please contact a medical physician.
Use and Safety Information
- Wear nitrile rubber gloves and a face mask when using this resin.
- Keep the room well-ventilated.
- Do not eat or drink in the printing area.
- Avoid direct contact of liquid or uncured resin with the skin. If contact occurs, wipe away the resin and wash thoroughly with cold water. Hand sanitizer or soap can be used to assist in washing. If discomfort persists, seek medical attention.
- If resin splashes into the eyes, flush with plenty of water and seek medical attention immediately.
Processing Printed Parts
Mixing Resin Before Using
- In Bottle : Shake the bottle vigorously before pouring the resin into the resin tank.
- In Resin Tank : Stir the resin in the tank using a soft spatula, taking care not to damage the film of the resin tank. This step is necessary to avoid potential printing issues caused by pigment sediment at the bottom of the vessel.
- After the model is printed, it is recommended to restore any remaining resin back into the bottle and avoid leaving the resin in the resin tank for an extended period of time.
Preparation
Prepare a print job using slicing software such as Uniz Dental, Uniz Desktop, or Uniz Maker, depending on the UNIZ printer type. zDental Model can be printed in layer thicknesses of 50μm or 100μm.For more information, please refer to the Uniz Dental Software Guide (www.uniz.com).
Printing
- Turn on the printer and ensure it is functioning properly.
- Check and clean the build platform, resin tank, and LCD printing screen.
- Place the resin tank filled with mixed resin onto the LCD printing screen and securely fix the tank in place.
- Upload the slicing file into the printer through USB or WIFI.
- Start the printing process according to the printer instructions (www.uniz.com).
Post-processing
Detaching Printed Parts
Once the printing process has ended, it is recommended to allow a dripping
time of approximately 10 minutes for the resin. Use a soft spatula to remove
any resin residue on the build platform and transfer it back into the resin
tank. Carefully detach the printed objects from the build platform.

Instruction for Use
Product Description:
zDental Model is a light-curing resin for the production of dental models
using 3D LCD printers utilizing wavelengths between 385nm–405nm. zDental Model
is an effective and fast-printing resin. This low viscosity model material is
ideal for diagnostic models and orthodontic appliance models requiring
excellent precision, long-term dimensional stability, high reliability,
superior fit and easy-cleaning. zDental Model has excellent anti-sedimentation
activity which makes handling easily.
Intended Use:
Diagnostic models, die models, implant models, orthodontic models
Color and Package:
Gray, tan, stone or light gray, sand 500ml/bottle, or 5L/drum
Contra-indications:
zDental Model contains (meth)acrylate and phosphine oxide. zDental Model
should therefore not be used in patients with a known hypersensitivity
(allergy) to these ingredients. In case of an allergic reaction, please
contact a medical physician.
Use and Safety Information:
- Wear nitrile rubber gloves and a face mask when using this resin.
- Keep the room ventilated.
- Swallowing such as eating and drinking is forbidden in the printing place.
- Avoid liquid or uncompletely cured resin directly contact with skin. If contact with skin occurs, wipe resin away and wash thoroughly with cold water, use hand sanitizer or soap to assist in washing. If the users still feel uncomfortable, please see a doctor immediately.
- If the user accidentally splashes the resin in the eyes, flush with plenty of water and seek medical attention immediately.
- More safety details please refer MSDS of this resin.
- The good using temperature for this resin is 21 – 25 ℃ . Keep the resin away from direct sunlight or any kind of UV light.

Processing printed parts
Mixing resin before using:
- In Bottle: Shake bottle vigorously prior to pouring into resin tank.
- In resin tank: Stir resin with a soft spatula. Take care not to damage the film of the resin tank. This step is necessary to avoid getting bad printing job caused by the (possible) pigment sediment from the bottom of the vessel.
After model is printed, it is recommended to restore the remaining resin into bottle and avoided leave the resin in the resin tank for a long time.
Preparation:
Prepare a print job using slicing software, such as Uniz Dental, Uniz Desktop
or Uniz Maker, in depending with the UNIZ printer type. zDental Model can be
printed in layer thickness of 50μm or 100μm. For more information, please
refer to the Uniz Dental Software Guide (www.uniz.com).
Printing:
Turn on the printer and ensure it well. Check and clean build platform, resin
tank, LCD printing screen. Put the resin tank filled with mixed resin onto the
LCD printing screen, and fix the tank well onto the screen. Upload the slicing
file into printer through USB or WIFI, then start printing. For more
information, refer to the printer instructions
(www.uniz.com).
Post-processing
Detaching printed parts:
Once the printing process has ended, a dripping time of resin approximately 10
min is recommended, using a soft spatura to remove the resin residue on the
build platform into resin tank. Then, carefully detach the printed objects
from the build platform.
Washing:
Wash parts in IPA bath with at least 98% purity. Best results are achieved
when using a pre and post wash. UWash ultrasonic cleaner is recommended for
washing parts.
- Pre-wash bath : 1 minute. After using, if the IPA density increases 5%, alternate clean IPA for this pre-washing step.
- Post-wash bath: 1 minute, always use clean IPA for each post-washing step.
If necessary, a dedicated soft brush can be used to help for removing residual resin.
Drying:
Use compressed air to dry parts. If residual resin remains, repeat the
“washing-drying“ steps. Ensure parts to dry thoroughly before post-curing.
Post-Curing:
Post-curing is an UV-LED light treatment to ensure that printed parts obtain
optimal polymer conversion, decreasing the residual monomer of printed parts
to a minimum and obtaining the required mechanical properties and surface
properties.
UCure, a post-cured devise from UNIZ, is recommended to cure parts. Both the
occlusal side and the other side are needed to be post-cured.
- One side: 1 minute, level 2, UCure
- The Other side: 1 minute, level 2, UCure
If printed part has supports, cure the non-supported side of printed part at first, then remove supports by same tools, finally cure the supported side. Before using, the support stub needs to be grinded and polished smoothly and be cleaned thoroughly.
Storage:
Stored in dark place where avoid direct sunlight or any kind of UV light,
environment temperature is recommended around 15 to 28℃，and environment
humidity is less than 45%RH. Do not use resin which exceeds the expiry date.
Disposal:
Dispose liquid resin waste in accordance with local regulations. The
information and data stated herein are based upon tests in our lab and are
considered to be reliable and accurate. This information and data are used for
reference only, no warranty as a legal basis. Use by customers should be
