Top Down 3D Printer

[AhmedAdel]

Hello guys,

i built my own 3D Printer using Top Down technique and i got some problems with Prints.
The Printed Part as same as the design plus some excess cured resin with it like attached photos.

i can't solve this Problem, i need your help to solve the problem.

Hello and welcome! Looks like it could be settling issues where it's starts to cure when the resin is still moving and haven't settled. Try bumping up the wait time in between layers...mayb3 15000 or longer, depending on how viscous your resin is.

Is that Formlabs' tough resin?

Hopefully redonix76 has stated the solution. Can this happen anytime during the print or is it happening more toward the end or more towards the beginning of the print process?

Hello Guys,

Thanks for your recommendations , its all about intensity of light and exposure time.
the problem is solved totally when i used low penetration resin.

Now i have another Problem Look for the following photo , tell me what are the probable causes of this error.

Glad you got it working!

Seems like you told me what resin you were using, but I can't remember how you told me. I don't see that you mentioned it in this thread, but I think I remember you telling me. Did you contact me some other way like an email or something?

Hey james, i don't remember too

i'm using MS Resin, the previous photo attached below.
how ever i solved this problem for this part while it takes place with another parts geometry.
the parameter i changed is blank time and Z Lift speed.

Hi All,

I would like to build a Simulator setup in my basement and would like to get ideas from you. Please post your setup pictures in this thread.

Thanks,

Hello!

The forum has been dead for years. Hackers got in and destroyed everything and everyone quit using the forum after that. It was great when it was working though! We all learned so many things. I don't know if people still use Creation Workshop anymore but I'm sure the software can be downloaded from somewhere.
