-Mono1 is a resin printer that uses a 405 nm LED projector to polymerize the resin. It uses a proprietary software called Monoware to slice your object and interface with the printer. On Monoware one can upload an STL file from any CAD software and adjust the settings so the software slices the part automatically.+Mono1 is a resin printer that uses a projector to polymerize the resin.
