So I just came back to my MSLA Printer thinking about flexible resins since you can mix em with "standard" resin to adjust the flexibility. Thats worth another video maybe?

Thanks for testing this, Stefan! I have resisted resin printers based on my previous experience with the brittleness of the prints. Like you, I mainly print functional parts, but I very recently bought a Photon and have been printing a lot with Siraya Blu lately. What I have been experimenting with lately is a blend of 70% Blu and 30% Siraya Tenacious resin. The Tenacious is their flexible resin, which is extremely tough, but has no rigidity. But the blended parts feel fully rigid, just like 100% Blu, yet are very very tough. I would love to hear your results testing a blend. Since you’ve already made this wonderful video, you could report your findings in your podcast, which by the way is fantastic. I listen as soon as it is released each week - thanks for taking the time to make the show! One more thing to share - I am still new to resin printing, but several experienced users have told me that soaking the parts in IPA is actually not ideal because it strips too much resin from the surface and results in slightly weaker cures. I don’t know if this is true, but again, it would be wonderful to test. Ok, well, one more thing after all - I’ve also been told that it is better to cure underwater. Something about oxygen embrittlement - again, I have not yet tested this :)

Excelent tip, Ocie. Many thanks. The best resin I've tried so far is eSun's Hard and Tough, but it's so scarce that I was able to only find a couple of bottles for an important project that I've been working on. This project requires printed parts to be as sturdy as possible. That is, strong and rigid, and yet not brittle. So I followed your advice and acquired two pairs of bottles of Blu and Tenacious and mixed them (by weight) in a 70-30 ratio, per your suggestion. The results have been so encouraging that at this point I'm seriously thinking about giving up on eSun's resin and start using this mix exclusively. This has the advantage that I can later tweak the proportions to make its resulting properties fit a particular application.

@foldionepapyrus3441 4 жыл бұрын

Not just wear issues to look into - many of the UV cure resins degrade/deform badly over time for a variety reasons. So far I've not seen a single UV cure resin I'd call good for anything but decoration, rapid short life expectancy prototypes or mold making. I'm not going to claim they are all like that though, just yet to see a stable strong good quality resin that can be used for an enduring part. Hopefully this resin might just do that job!

@superdupergrover9857 3 жыл бұрын

Gears also have some un-intuitive wear mechanisms. Properly designed gears don't have much sliding contact if any, for instance. Also, It is my understanding that plastic gears are mostly limited by strength and dimensional tolerances. 3D printing will also throw in some surface finish problems as well. I think durability will be determined mostly by tooth geometry and surface finish. Material choice matters, but I think it will be obvious, or at least the problems will not be unique to gears.

@@michaels3003 Do you have any you know of? With the datasheet to go with them? As I've looked around alot, and never seen any that makes this type of printer appealing to me (and I'd like it to be, as the detail level is great, and its a much cheaper simpler setup than the laser based powder melting ones that have similarly good resolution). The nature of the UV cure resins seems to make any part they make flawed if you need anything other than a delicate sculpture, or very short lived prototype. Preferably one that's never going to be handled/exposed to oils/water or more UV... There are some mechanically quite impressive resins, but they all seem to fail rapidly if exposed to the real world, which vastly limits the usefulness, and means you are better off printing the part, taking the silcon mold and then casting in a suitable 2-part epoxy (something you can easily find one that suits whatever your needs are) - and that is too much hassle to bother with, adds quite a bit to the cost of a single part, unless its really the only affordable/sane way to do a project - like perhaps you need thousand odd of them - too small a run to make injection molding viable, and too much to do machining...

@@foldionepapyrus3441 , I am interested in this subject myself, but unfortunately I've just started the learning process. YT may not be the best place to look for such information. You may have to do your own work by getting different polymers and testing them. Or you could order prints from some companies that print professionally but use polymers that are also available to ordinary consumers. I think, there are a growing number of manufacturers of polymers and data sheets should be available. Keep in mind that the specialty polymers will print at slower rates and may be expensive. Companies should be able to answer a simple question whether the printed objects can be used in specific real-world scenarios. Post processing may be required for real world usage even with the "tough" type products (like from eSun or Siraya Tech). Btw., mixing some of the polymers offers interesting possibilities.

@gendragongfly 5 жыл бұрын

While in polymers creep indicates the material being loaded at a temperature above the Tg (glass transition temperature), in monomers (like the UV resins used in resin printers) this is an indication that the monomer matrix hasn't fully formed yet. In other words, your resin isn't fully cured yet and thus it still behaves like a semi-liquid material. This is actually super common when manufacturing products out of resin and it can often take months if not years for the monomer matrix to fully form and the resin becomes fully cured and solidified. In most cases having a fully cured resin isn't a desirable goal as it results in a more brittle material than the not fully cured semi-liquid material, so in order to make a resin tough and less brittle they add plasticizers which interfere with the curing process and can sometimes also act as a lubricant between the monomer molecules to promote more viscous rather than solid behavior. In other words the creep is what makes this resin 'tough'.

While the strength of the part isn't dependent on orientation, the warping behavior is. Process also requires orienting the part at an angle to it's axis to limit it's adhesion, so the warp becomes a curl that is really difficult to design around. I found it very difficult to make straight fixture frames, precise slides, etc.

@Rossingiol 5 жыл бұрын

What you observed in the bending test is probably the viscolastic behaviour of the resin. Generally, most polymers show this kind of behaviour, some more pronounced then other. This depends on the degree of polymerization (= average length of the polymer chains) and the "connection" between the polymerchains. Basically, this behaviour is entropy driven, meaning that the polymer chains will untangle under load but will return into their original position after the stress is taken away. Of course, this only works within a certain degree of deformation. Usually, the degree of viscoelasticity also correlates with the ductility of the polymer.

For engineering prints I think the only two advantages to resin are the strength along all axis (print orientation layers not affecting strength), and the temperature resistance. Sparkmaker LCD-H for instance can go up to 320C. Typically the higher HDT plastics become harder to print on an FDM printer (warping, hardware to print at higher temperatures, etc.), but on a resin printer it's pour the liquid in, and find the right exposure time. Much easier to print something for extreme temperature resistance on a resin printer.

rsilvers thanks mate, such a comprehensive comparison. I’m assuming this is a collaboration, can you provide more details? Or maybe some other spreadsheets with other modes of failure? Cheers

@AntiVaganza 4 жыл бұрын

@@rsilvers Hope you see this as I am really interested in your findings and looking to buy an SLA printer. I am based in China and have had good experiences dealing with Anycubic so might go for a Photon but in your spreadsheet, somehow the Zortrax prints Blu almost twice as strong as the Photon does. Any idea what that is or if the result can be trusted?

Stefan, first: as always you made a great video. Second: I think you unintended put some stress concentrators on the hooks that you tested. On your video you showed one hook that breaks because one of them and I'm pretty sure that the other one also failed because of them too. It would be interesting if you redesign the drain holes and put them on non critical areas under stress.

I noticed that too... the FDM hooks break further up. The infill pattern also looks very coarse(?) compared to the different types he has tested. I couldn't tell if that may have also contributed. With the detail of resin printers I would have expected it to be finer. Possibly that is normally done due to the brittle nature of most resins?

This was a helpful review. I would be interested in seeing how continuous UV exposure affects it. Standard resins tend to turn yellow after just an hour in the sun.

I don’t think so much any material or process is better than the other, it is more a case of which material/ process is best suited for the intended purpose. Great testing video👍

Would love to see a bend/drop test or two of a figurine with this resin since it's much less brittle than typical photo resins.

@DigChaos 5 жыл бұрын

Awesome video! Having used anycubic and monocure resins I was pretty skeptical about the strength since both of those resins were very brittle. I’m still very curious about temperature resistance though, if we can find a resin that his temperature resistant and tough, I would love to outfit my MK3 with replacement resin parts.

There are, Formlabs have temp resistan resin , but its gone cost a little fortune , on the othet side yuo can buy petg or abs for 20 -30 dolars per kilo or something ...sooo

Can you test reinforcing hollow prints with expanding foam, polyurethane, or some other pourable curing polymer? Would be interesting to see how that stacks up vs infill printed parts. That way you can get a part off the printer faster and reinforce it while the next part prints.

@ShanePKing 5 жыл бұрын

TwiztedMatt1007 with the DLP printers the print time is solely dependent on height, so hollow prints have the same build time as solids, only the quantity of resin changes. And a solid part will always be stronger than an infilled piece as the outer layers (bending moment - like an I-beam) or weaker portions (think tensile test) fail first.

great idea, Evan Morgan (search on youtube) did a project with resin printed magnifying glasses. the optical quality isn't that great due but we are sure it can be further improved.

@IanDouglas 5 жыл бұрын

I'm actually quite surprised that the toughness stood up so well compared to PLA/PETG. I noticed in this video you did a bend test with weight on it instead of doing a heat test. I'm curious how well resin holds up to similar heats that would bend/warp PLA/PETG. Did you have any data on that? I'm also curious what the print times were for a tray of parts versus FDM, factoring in cleaning and curing?

Hi Stefan, great video. I was searching for an ABS-like resin so this was the answer I was looking for. Could you please comment on the DAZZ printer you are using? I'm in the market for a good 47 micron printer and this might be my pick, but there aren't many reviews on it yet. Would love to hear your opinion.

@erikjost1694 4 жыл бұрын

Would love to see a solid FDM and a solid resin hook. If the advantage of MSLA is that entire layers print at the same time, it should be more efficient (time) to print a solid resin hook vs. FDM. Great work!

crosslinked resin generally does not melt like thermoplastics. in over, it would start to brown, and some may fray if the temperature reaches high enough.

Stefan, I always see that you have included the notch into the design of your impact test specimens. They are actually supposed to be a straight bar with the notch "cut" out to eliminate the variables due to surface tension on the walls. This is a very important factor for accurate results.
