Elegoo Standard 2.0 Resin Gray for 3D Printing 405nm UV Curing

Elegoo Standard 2.0 Resin Gray for 3D Printing 405nm UV Curing is a high-quality photopolymer material developed specifically for LCD and DLP 3D printers. Featuring an improved formula, this resin delivers excellent fluidity, minimal shrinkage, high precision, and quick curing times. The neutral gray color is specially chosen to highlight fine surface details, making it an exceptional choice for intricate miniatures, functional prototypes, and tabletop gaming figures with a smooth surface finish.

Advantages

The Elegoo Standard 2.0 formulation provides a well-balanced combination of mechanical properties that facilitate a smooth and reliable printing process. Its high hardness after curing ensures that printed models retain their structural integrity and fine geometric details over time. Furthermore, the material features an improved, low-odor formula that significantly enhances user comfort during the printing process. The resin complies with strict RoHS and REACH standards and is completely BPA-free, providing a safer working experience when appropriate safety measures are followed.

Suitable for

• Printing detailed tabletop gaming miniatures and figurines
• Creating precise functional prototypes and engineering models
• Producing intricate artistic sculptures and complex decorative items
• General hobbyist and professional LCD 3D printing projects

How to use

Before beginning the printing process, thoroughly shake the bottle of Elegoo Standard 2.0 Resin Gray to ensure the pigment is evenly distributed. Pour the resin into the vat of your compatible LCD 3D printer up to the recommended fill line. Configure your slicing software with the appropriate exposure times and layer settings for standard 405nm resins. Once the printing job is complete, carefully remove the printed object from the build platform and wash it thoroughly in isopropyl alcohol or an appropriate cleaning solution to remove any uncured resin residue. After cleaning and drying, place the model in a UV curing chamber or under a 405nm UV light source to achieve final material hardness.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure your 3D printer utilizes a compatible 405nm light source, typically found in LCD and DLP devices
• Verify that you have a dedicated well-ventilated space for resin 3D printing
• Prepare necessary post-processing equipment, including cleaning solvents and a UV curing station
• Stock up on personal protective equipment such as nitrile gloves and safety glasses

Use this resin in a well-ventilated area and always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including nitrile gloves and eye protection, to avoid direct skin contact and inhalation of fumes during printing and post-processing.
