Resin Printers

High accuracy, variable speed, high smellz.

Overview

MakeIt Labs currently has two Resin printers available for high detail prints beyond the level of detail possible with FDM


Training is available via scheduled classes from the Resource Managers. If you have already used a Resin printer before you can request a printer-specific mini-training in order to use the printers.

The slides used as a reference during the training can be downloaded here (with a MakeIt Labs login):
