About
Some Carbon Resins used in the Carbon 3D printer can benefit from post process curing. Each resin has a specific hardening curve which can be found within the reference material which will indicate the ideal time and temperature to be set on the UV curing oven.

Safety Concerns
The resin used in the Carbon 3D printer is considered hazardous. Gloves are to be warn when replacing or removing build plates, build tanks, and resin cartridges. Refer to SDS for disposal and health hazards.
Operating Proceduces
1. Any part to be cured needs to be washed in the FormWash with IPA BEFORE being placed in the form cure.
2. Supports can be removed before or after curing process.
3. Wait 30 minutes after washing to allow all remaining IPA to evaporate
4. Check the reference material for selected resin to determine ideal time and temperature for curing
5. Use the dial on the front of the FormCure to set time and temperature
6. Place part within the FormCure→ press start.
