List Of All Available Materials And Colors

Daylight-Durable-DL110H-Resin-Joystick (1)
Daylight-Magna-Duramax-Resin-Cover-Plate (1)

DL110H

DL110H is the most popular material, with properties such as high impact resistance and compression resistance, and high versatiliity.

DL110H has three color options in black, white, and smokey quartz.

Duramax 

Duramax is very durable and long lasting with high impact strength.

Duramax has one color option in black.

Daylight-Durable-Resin-Clips (1)
Flexible-220B-Phone-Case-3D-Printed

Durable

Durable is one of our newly available resins. Durable creates long-lasting, durable, parts with high impact strength.

Durable has one color option in black.

Flexible DL220B

Flexible DL220B is a newer resin with the key properites of high elongation, impact absorption, efficient energy damping, strong tear strength, and very low water absorption.

Flexible DL220B has one color option in black.

Ultracur3D®-EPD1006-Resin-Printed-Part
20220525_155317345_iOS

Ultracur3D EPD 1006

Ultracur3D EPD1006 is a high functioning material optimised for engineering and prototyping. This resin has high movement and flexibility without breaking or tearing.

Ultracur3D EPD1006 has one color option in black.

DL110HB

DL110HB is the black color option of DL110H. This option is the most popular by customers. DL110HB is the strongest and most consistent of the DL110H line. The black option our personal recommendation.

DL110HB has one color option in black.

IMG_5897

DL110HW

DL110HW is the white option of the DL110H. This option is slightly high priced, as white requires more processing time in pre and post production. DL110HW has essentially identical properites as the black, though requires more finesse.

IMG_2573

DL110HTR Smokey Quartz Translucent.

DL110H Smokey Quartz Translucent is the last color option of DL110H. This option is the least traveled resin. DL110HTR again has nearly identical properites as the DL110HB and DL110HW. DL110HTR has the fastest print time capabilites and a unique Amber apperance.

Ultracur3D®-EPD1086-Resin-Lattice
Ultracur3D®-EPD2006-print-Air-Intake-Manifold

Ultracur3D EPD 1086
