Resins are generally epoxies or modified acrylic monomer compounds. They are partnered with a variety of photosensitive catalysts that react to UV light by triggering cross-linking polymerization, which almost instantly hardens the resin to a solid. Choosing the best resin is not simple as it also requires the best resin 3D printer and the best […]
Fused deposition modeling (FDM) is a method of 3D printing that uses extruders. In FDM 3D printing, an extruder feeds, melts, and deposits a thermoplastic filament in a prescribed path to build parts layer-by-layer. 3D printer extruders differ based on the placement of the “cold end” and “hot end.” The cold end is the portion […]
