It is important to choose from a wide variety of resins according
to the characteristics of the modeling object and its application.
SLA 3D printers create models with liquid resin that cures with ultraviolet light.
Resins are available for various applications, including general industrial resins, rubber-like resins, ABS-like resins, and medically approved resins.
The most important factor is “resin selection,” and the finish of the modeling object will vary depending on the type of resin chosen.
There is a wide variety of resins available, so it is important to choose the one that best suits the characteristics and application of the modeling object.
Types and Applications of Resins for SLA 3D printers
Resins for general applications
-
General Industrial Resins
Black/Super clear/white/gray
A low-cost resin but allows for high-definition printing.
A standard resin with a low odor. -
HM-240 ABS-like Resin
Transparent/Black
The combination of elastic modulus and impact resistance brings it close to the properties of ABS resin.
The low viscosity compared to competitors’ products results in fewer printing defects and more accurate printing.
Safety Data SheetFlexible Resins
-
SP-Rubber (Rubber-like)
Clear
This is a resin that allows for customizable softness. By mixing it with SP-Flexible, you can achieve the desired level of hardness. Rubber Hardness: 50A.
-
SP-Flexible (Flexible)
Clear/White/Black
This is a resin that allows for customizable softness. By mixing it with SP-Rubber, you can achieve the desired level of hardness. Rubber Hardness: 93A.
-
HS-830 Rubber-like Resin
Clear
It has a flexural modulus, high elongation and high recovery, and exhibits elastomeric properties. (Rubber hardness 50A)
It is used in cushioning jig applications where you do not want to scratch the product, and in prototypes that require softness, such as shoe insoles and midsoles.
Please contact us for a recipe (material distribution) to approach the target hardness.

Water-washable Resins
-
SP-Wash
Black/White/Gray
・High resolution and high precision output can be faithfully reproduced.
・It is available with SmaPri under optimal conditions.
・Uncured resin clinging to the object can be washed off with water.[Note] Handling of waste liquid.
Please note that the water from washing is not to be disposed of in the sink, but rather as industrial waste. -
Can be washed with water after printing
Models printed by SLA generally need to be cleaned with IPA or other chemicals because of the excess resin on them, but with water-washable resin, models can be cleaned with water instead of IPA after printing.
What is IPA?
UV curable resin used in SLA must be washed off with IPA (organic solvent such as isopropyl alcohol or ethanol) after printing to wash off uncured resin clinging to the printed object. IPA is classified as a Class 2 organic solvent in the same framework as acetone and xylene. It is a highly toxic and flammable solvent, has a strong odor, and ventilation is essential.
3D printing service for SLA/LCD methods
We offer contract manufacturing of various molded products using photopolymerization 3D printers. The advantage of this technology lies in its ability to create internal structures such as hollow or honeycomb patterns. This capability enables us to achieve material cost reduction and lightweight designs compared to solid machining, resulting in significant waste reduction and cost savings. Additionally, we can accommodate shapes that are otherwise difficult to produce through traditional machining processes.
