Standard resin -> orientation and surface quality

#1

Hello.
I would have a question regarding stereolithography, standard resin.
If my model would be positioned for printing in a way, that it would have a perfectly horizontal surface top side, how would this surface look like
in terms of surface quality?
Furthermore is there an option to communicate upfront
how I would like to have the model oriented in the printer?
Best wishes,
Oliver

Hello, Oliver.

Thank you very much for your question.

To get the smooth surface this surface must be orientated facing upwards.
To make sure the part is orientated correctly in the printer, you need to follow the instrustions:

  1. upload and order the part in the wished orientation;
  2. add a remark to your order that the orientation must be kept.

In case you have further questions please do not hesitate to contact us.

Kind regards,
