What is 2µm Printing Best For?
-
Thin walls and fine channels
-
Optical or fluidic detail
-
Parts where machining and molding fail
What are the 2µm Printing Limitations?
-
Very fine layers lead to many layers causing long print times
-
Limited build size to achieve ultra-high resolution
-
2µm is the optical resolution, not the smallest feature size
50mm x 50mm x 50mm
Maximum Part Size
±0.010mm or ±0.2% of the feature size
Prototype to High-Volume Production
2µm Optical Resolution
±0.005mm Repeatability
UV-LED (405nm) Light Engine
5-20µm Layer Thickness
0.4-0.8µm Ra (Top)
1.5-2.5µm Ra (Side)
STEP, SLDPRT, or STL File Formats
