Make / No. of MachinesCreality / 1
ModelUW-03 Washing/Curing Machine
Title of the related experiment:UW-03 Washing and curing module use for clean and curing a resin based component
A brief explanation of the usage of the said equipment

An SLA resin-based parts washing and curing module is used for the post-processing of 3D-printed resin parts. After printing, the parts are placed in the washing chamber to remove uncured resin from their surfaces using a suitable cleaning solution such as isopropyl alcohol (IPA) or water, depending on the resin type. Once washed and dried, the parts are transferred to the curing chamber, where controlled UV light further hardens the resin and improves the part's strength, surface finish, and stability. This combined system simplifies and standardizes the post-processing process by integrating washing and UV curing into a single module.
