Hi Guys,
just wanted to touch base and see everyone's opinion on this idea.
basically I want to build an opensource lcd resin printer.
with on off-the-shelf parts providing a build area of 29cm x 10cm x 20cm Height using the raspberry pi as printer controler
the resolution will be 150 micron - xy-axis .
similar price point as the littlerp($650 + $100)
What do you guys think about this?
Cheers,
hp

Re: Open source LCD resin printer
Interesting project, resolution x-y too high. 100 microns would be ideal.
Ciao.

Re: Open source LCD resin printer
hi Seblos,
to reduce complexity the only off-the-shelve LCD monitor with enough brightness is 150 Micron for a cost effective price.
i hava found a off-the-shelve lcd with 50 micron xy and enough brightness but print area is much smaller(12cm × 7cm) - plus cost will go up

Re: Open source LCD resin printer
hp, are you planning to use an array of LEDs? Or will the brightness of the LCD be enough to cure the resin?

Re: Open source LCD resin printer
just found a 7" lcd panel with enough brightness @79 Micron...xy
potentially 9-15 seconds for 1 layer(100 Micron thickness)
now that is very cool.. don't know the price yet though

Re: Open source LCD resin printer
I experiment with 7 inches 1280x800 with led array. The speed is 1,5 seconds for 50 microns thickness

Re: Open source LCD resin printer
Hi dragokirov,
thats a really cool looking LCD printer
thanks for sharing
I'm looking at the daylight resins, the reason not to alter an existing LCD would greatly reduce complexity building a printer.
and the Resin price is very acceptable.

Re: Open source LCD resin printer
thank you hp_
Forget everything you know about the LCD printers! The LED array and the drivers cost about $ 200. I think it's very cheap

Re: Open source LCD resin printer
I think i paid the same for my led array,
but with a 12.3 Inch Screen with 1000 Nits it cost me $125 + $50 HDMI board but cure times are ~25 seconds per layer
do you have any results of prints..looking forward to it.
