Voting closes soon in the 3D Printing Industry Awards 2023. Have your say now!
3D printer manufacturer Raise3D has introduced the DF2 solution, a new addition to its portfolio of professional and industrial 3D printing solutions, at Formnext 2023, and the company’s first resin-based 3D printer.
The DF2 Solution by Raise3D offers rapid printing speeds, refined surfaces, and high precision, making it ideal for engineering prototyping and low-volume production. Its comprehensive 3D printing workflow includes the DF2 3D printer, DF Wash for automated cleaning, DF Cure for advanced curing, specialized resins, and ideaMaker slicing software. The range of resins, from user-friendly standard resin to durable tough 2K resin, high-detail resin, and rigid 3K resin, caters to diverse applications. This versatile solution addresses a variety of manufacturing needs with precision and reliability.
Promoting open material innovation and operational ease for enhanced 3D printing
Designed to foster an open material platform for innovation, the DF2 Solution is supported by the introduction of the Open Resin Program (ORP). This program is a collaborative initiative between Raise3D and resin manufacturers, with the primary goal of identifying and selecting top-performing resins specifically tailored for the DF2 Solution. Regarding traceable and user-friendly operations, the DF2 Solution seamlessly incorporates smart build plate technology and optimized resin management. Enabling operators to effortlessly oversee washing and curing phases, the smart build plate seamlessly integrates with post-processing devices using embedded RFID tags. The integration of streamlined resin management features, such as Auto Resin Refill and Resin Material Auto-Recognition, further enhances operational efficiency.
Smooth surfaces and an advanced support structure ensure superior print quality with the DF2. Its 78.5 μm XY pixel, 2560 x 1440 resolution, and Anti-Aliasing technology enable detailed prints. Enhanced reliability is achieved through a state-of-the-art light engine, precise optical control, and a stable printing environment, featuring curated LED sources, a dedicated DMD chip, and a low-distortion glass lens. The heated chamber and dust-proof design contribute to stable printing outcomes.
Efficient and safe workflow features encompass reduced manual tasks, effortless maintenance, and versatility. This is achieved through automated drainage, user-friendly automatic pump and door mechanisms, and the DF Wash flushing system. Consequently, it streamlines operations and minimizes manual intervention and user exposure to chemical residues. The company is reallocating resources to fortify resin development as a core competency, says Raise3D. Strategic partnerships with industry leaders like Henkel and BASF Forward AM validate the DF2 Solution’s capability, proven through successful material tests, including LOCTITE 3D IND405, LOCTITE 3D PRO476, Ultracur3D RG 3280, and Ultracur3D RG 1100 B.
