Materials Documentations

Formfutura’s Engineering LCD Series photopolymer 3D printing resins are specifically engineered for compatibility and excellent processability with all type of open source LCD / LED / MSLA 3D printers.Engineering LCD Series – Flex 63A ResinOur Engineering LCD Series – Flex 63A Resin is a very flexible and extremely transparent 3D printing resin with a low surface shore hardness of 63A. The combination of flexibility with elasticity make  FormFutura’s Engineering LCD Series – Flex 63A Resin a very versatile 3D printing resin for a wide range of applications.

Key features

  • Excellent flexibility 

  • High elongation properties up to 80%

  • Good elasticity properties

  • Extremely transparent with virtually no discoloration and/or yellowing

  • High dimensional accuracy and low shrinkage

  • Almost odorless processing

  • Compatible with all open-source SLA, DLP, and LCD 3D printers in the range of 385 - 405nm


Applications

  • Seals and gaskets

  • Soft touch applications

  • Functional prototyping

  • Wearables

  • Short-run manufacturing

Preparation(s) before starting to print

  • Shake the bottle for at least 2 minutes before each use.

  • After shaking the bottle, leave the resin to rest for 10 minutes to let air bubbles get out of the resin

  • The resin can be poured back from the vat into the bottle once your print is finished

  • Always use protective measurements like safety glasses and nitrile gloves when handling resins.


Post-processing

  • We do advise you to post-process your 3D print in order to achieve the material properties

  • Rinse your 3D printed object in IPA or (Bio)Ethanol for approximately 5-10 minutes

  • An ultrasonic cleaner is preferred/recommended

  • Make sure that IPA and/or (Bio)Ethanol rinsed objects are perfectly dry before further post-curing to prevent warping or cracking.

  • Place the rinsed parts in a well-ventilated area for at least 4 hours, or use pressurized air for at least 5 minutes

  • Cure your object in a high power curing chamber (like the CUREbox™ Plus) for approximately 60 minutes at 65°CAnd after that approximately 2 hours of thermal curing at 100°C. The preferred curing wavelength is between 300-410nm

Safety

Please always be aware that when 3D printing with resins that you are working with chemicals and that you should always be cautious and use the personal protective equipment as stipulated in our safety data sheets.

  • Always wear Respiratory Protection when sanding/cutting the resin object.

  • Always use nitrile gloves when handling resins and uncured resin objects.
