SLA material

you wrote that resins would be too expensive. For example this high temp resin "only" costs ~50€/kg which is not that much more than 1k of PHA (~34€) while it should withstand 180 °C and produce better/cleaner results. LabCrow (talk) 10:03, 4 May 2026 (CEST)Reply

As written in the page for PHA (but not for this project?), there is a need for a stabilizing frame (wood/aluminum). Wouldn't it be possible to produce a suitable aluminum frame with our CNC mill? This would also help with the cooling of the mold compared to wood and reduce the time needed between injections. LabCrow (talk) 10:05, 4 May 2026 (CEST)Reply
