{"product_id":"mayer-makes-engineering-resin","title":"MAYER MAKES Engineering Resin","description":"\u003cp\u003eMAYER MAKES Engineering Resin is a dedicated 3D printing resin for mechanical prototyping, engineering and small batch production. It is incredibly tough and impact resistant compared to normal \"tough\" resin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMECHANICAL STRENGTH\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNormal resin 3d prints are not suitable for mechanical prototyping and mounting as they cannot withstand the same forces as machined plastic or FFF printed parts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMAYER MAKES Engineering Resin is specifically designed to act as rugged 3d printable mechanical prototyping material and final production material for small to medium batches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMAYER MAKES Engineering Resin can be machined with common metalworking tools such as lathes, cnc mills and hand tools to ensure perfect fit to tight tolerances and allow for extremely fast iteration cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePRO-MATERIAL THAT WORKS ON HOBBY MACHINES\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike other professional products, MAYER MAKES Engineering Resin can be used on almost all commonly available hobby grade resin based 3d printers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe needed slicer settings are very easy to adapt from standard resin profiles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMAYER MAKES supply their customers with tested slicer profiles for the most popular 3D printers. These profiles are also very good starting points to tune in the settings for other machines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBUILT IN VISUAL CURING INDICATOR\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMAYER MAKES Engineering Resin has a built in visual curing indicator. The uncured resin is yellow, which ensures an ideal photoinitiated curing reaction with the UV spectrum commonly used by current resin based 3D printers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAfter the 3D printing process the part is washed and cured in a curing station as usual.\u003cbr\u003eTo ensure the best material performance the part is then cured in full spectrum UV light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile curing this colorant dissolves until the 3D printed part turns clear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis process works best in bright intense natural sunlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMIX AND MATCH\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMAYER MAKES Engineering Resin can be coloured with standard resin colorants, while still retaining the color indication properties.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn uncured blue part for example would appear green until fully cured.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMixing standard resins with MAYER MAKES Engineering Resin is encouraged and ideal to add toughness and impact resistance to any other 3d printing resin. Therefore enabling you to get the best price to performance ratio for your particular project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSupport structures are best removed when they have turned clear, but the thicker portions of the model are still a bit yellow. The difference in rigidity lets the supports easily snap off without much force right at the touching point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis property and the high resilience to impacts makes the product perfect for 3d printable wargames and figurines that need to withstand frequent rough handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFuther Information\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/mayermakes\/Engineering-Resin\/tree\/main\/Material%20Safety%20Datasheets%2004%202022\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eMaterial Safety Datasheets\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/mayermakes\/Engineering-Resin\/blob\/main\/technical%20Datasheet_%20MAYER%20MAKES_Engineering%20Resin.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eTechnical Datasheet\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/mayermakes\/Engineering-Resin\/blob\/main\/Compatible%20Printers.txt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eExemplary List of compatible 3D printers\u003c\/a\u003e (most are compatible)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/mayermakes\/Engineering-Resin\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eSlicer Profiles (GitHub)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"MAYER MAKES","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40459329372243,"sku":"MAY-001","price":81.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0174\/1800\/products\/Mayermakes_engineering_web.jpg?v=1671111053","url":"https:\/\/shop.pimoroni.com\/en-eu\/products\/mayer-makes-engineering-resin","provider":"Pimoroni Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
