In the world of 3D printing, resin technology stands out as the gold standard for achieving high-resolution detail. Unlike filament-based printers, a resin 3D printer uses UV light to cure liquid resin layer by layer, producing crisp features and clean surfaces. It’s the go-to choice for any project where precision matters.
Precision and Smoothness
Resin 3D printing delivers exceptional accuracy. The cured layers are extremely thin (often 0.01–0.05 mm), and the XY resolution can be just a few dozen microns. With modern LCD panels now reaching 14K resolution, the level of detail possible far exceeds what FDM can offer.
This means you can produce tiny text, embossed logos, and complex geometries with excellent fidelity right out of the printer. Surfaces come out looking near injection-moulded, with no heavy sanding needed.
Perfect for Detailed Models
Resin’s ability to capture fine features makes it ideal for:
-
Miniatures & Figurines – High-resolution resin prints bring tiny accessories, facial expressions, and textures to life
-
Jewellery Prototypes – Prints detailed prongs, engravings, and filigree ready for casting
-
Functional Prototypes – Handles small mechanical parts, tight tolerances, and embossed branding with ease
This tech isn’t just about looking good, it’s about making usable, production-ready components for design, gaming, or product development.
Pushing Limits with 14K and 8K LCDs
Phrozen Sonic Mighty Revo 14K
