About
The Carbon Printer is located in the Elings Hall 2436.
The Carbon 3D printer is a liquid resin stereolithographic 3D printer capable of producing high resolution accurate models out of a variety of materials. Liquid resin printer use a bath of reactive resin which is precisely cured using specific wavelengths of light. This printer is particularly well suited for thin high aspect ratio features and models requiring great surface accuracy.
Based on the material and application, some prints will benefit from post process UV curing to strengthen and harden the finished part. See part curing documentation in APM LED V-Cube II Ultra-violet oven reference documentation.
