Printer Settings 2024

Product catalog summary

Overview

This document provides comprehensive printer settings and configurations for multiple 3D printers used in dental applications with D Tech Dental Technologies resins. It covers validated parameters for various printer models, resin types, and dental applications such as dental models, casts, surgical guides, and crown & bridge components.

1. Printer Models and Compatibility

Eight 3D printer models are detailed with their compatibility across different resin types and dental applications:

  • Asiga Max UV 385
  • Ackuretta SOL
  • Shining 3D L4K
  • Phrozen Sonic Mini 4K
  • Phrozen Sonic Mini 8K
  • Phrozen Sonic Mighty 4K
  • Anycubic Photon Mono 4K
  • Elegoo Saturn 2 8K

Each printer is matched with resin types such as Model Pro, Model Std, Model Basic, Model Hard, Dental Cast, Cast-L, Crown & Bridge, and Surgical Guide. Exposure times for layer curing range typically from 50 to 150 seconds depending on printer and resin.

2. General Recommendations and Notes

  • D Tech resins are pre-validated for use with these printers.
  • Users should download and import specific configuration files (.ini or equivalent) from official sources.
  • Recommended slicing software versions include Asiga Composer V2.0, Ackuretta Alpha AI V5.1.1, Shining Accuware V3.1.8.35, and Phrozen Chitubox V1.9.6.
  • For older printers with diminished light intensity, increase layer curing time by 10-15% to prevent print failures.

3. Printer-Specific Settings

  • Asiga Max UV 385: Use Composer V2.0; exposure times 50-150 seconds; import validated .ini files.
  • Ackuretta SOL: Use Alpha AI V5.1.1; select printer, brand, and resin from dropdowns; exposure times 50-150 seconds; increase curing time by 10-15% if needed.
  • Shining 3D L4K: Use Accuware V3.1.8.35; adjust fill and boundary exposure times (e.g., 3.6 to 4 seconds for 50µm layers); slow Z-axis return speed from 90 to 72; profiles for 50µm and 100µm layers.
  • Phrozen Sonic Mini 4K & 8K: Use Chitubox V1.9.6; exposure times typically 50 seconds per layer; supports multiple resin types and 50µm layer height.
  • Phrozen Sonic Mighty 4K: Use Chitubox V1.9.6; supports Model Basic and Surgical Guide resins; layer heights 50µm and 100µm; exposure times 50-100 seconds.
  • Anycubic Photon Mono 4K & Elegoo Saturn 2 8K: Compatibility and exposure times listed; detailed settings provided separately.

4. Key Parameters and Adjustments

  • Layer height: Commonly 50µm (0.05mm) or 100µm (0.1mm) depending on resin and printer.
  • Exposure times: Vary by printer and resin, generally 50-150 seconds per layer.
  • Software profiles: Must be selected or modified to match resin and printer specifications.
  • Light intensity degradation: Increase curing time by 10-15% for older printers.

5. Best Practices

  • Keep slicing software updated to the latest versions.
  • Download and import official or validated configuration files for optimal print quality.
  • Adjust exposure times based on printer age and resin type to avoid print failures.
  • Follow manufacturer recommendations for layer height and exposure settings.

6. Specific Settings for Anycubic Photon Mono 4K and Elegoo Saturn 2 8K

  • Anycubic Photon Mono 4K: Uses Anycubic Photon Workshop V2.2.16; layer height fixed at 50µm.
  • Elegoo Saturn 2 8K: Uses Chitubox V1.9.6; layer height fixed at 50µm.
  • Compatible with multiple dental materials including Dental Cast-L, Dental Cast-Purple, Model Pro, Model Std, Model Basic, Model Hard, Surgical Guide, and Crown & Bridge.
  • Document control details: Origin date 22 January 2024; revision dates 6 February 2024 (Anycubic) and 7 February 2024 (Elegoo); revision numbers Anycubic - 01, Elegoo - 00.

Summary

This document is a detailed technical guide for dental professionals and technicians to configure various 3D printers with D Tech Dental resins. It highlights validated printer-resin combinations, software compatibility, critical parameters such as layer height and exposure times, and practical adjustments to ensure high-quality dental prints. Following the specified settings and best practices will optimize print accuracy and reliability across multiple dental applications.

Note - In case your printer is old, it is possible that the light intensity may have reduced. If you experience failures, then layer curing time can be increased by 10 to 15% over the normal curingtime. For example, if the 50micron layer curing time is 2.2 secs, please increase to 2.4 or 2.5 secs. D Tech Dental Technologies www.dtechasia.com Printer Settings Ackuretta
