High Detail Resin

Embossed and engraved details

0.1 MM FOR EMBOSSED, 0.4 MM FOR ENGRAVED

For embossed and engraved details, we recommend a minimum line thickness of 0.1 mm and a depth of 0.4 mm.

Tip: if you are putting text on your design, use a bold sans-serif font for readability, such as Arial Bold.

Escape holes

3.5 MM DIAMETER FOR ONE ESCAPE HOLE, 1.5 MM FOR TWO OR MORE

As High Detail Resin is built up from solidified liquid resin, all the cavities in your design will be filled with resin. It’s a good idea to hollow your model to save costs by adding a few holes for the resin to escape out of.

Tip: having multiple holes makes it easier for the resin to escape, and for the cleaning solvent to clean out your model during post-processing.

Minimum detail size

0.2MM

Stereolithography is one of the 3D Printing processes with the highest accuracy; up to 0.2mm is enough to create clearly visible details.

Minimum feature size

1 MM (OR 0.3 MM FOR SMALL FEATURES OR IF CONNECTED ON BOTH SIDES)

The minimum feature size for printing with High Detail Resin is 1 mm. If your feature is a maximum of 7mm tall or is a thin wire connected on both sides, you can go slightly thinner to 0.3 mm, otherwise we recommend at least 1 mm thickness.

Moving or interlocking parts

0.5 MM CLEARANCE BETWEEN PARTS

A powerful feature of High Detail Resin is that you can have moving or interlocking parts printed in one go. In order for the parts to come loose you need to keep a 0.5 mm clearance.

Supports

Stereolithography uses supports to anchor parts to the build platform and aid the creation of delicate, overhanging features. Once the print is complete, these supports are removed by hand and the model is sanded to remove any visible marks.

Wall thickness

0.6 MM (OR 0.4 MM IF SUPPORTED)

The model's wall must be thick enough to support the model. We recommend working with a minimum wall thickness of 0.4 mm when the wall is connected to an other wall on two or more sides, and 0.6 mm if it’s only connected on one side.
