Flashforge upgraded its professional DLP printer for dental applications. Named the Flashforge Hunter S. The Hunter S is ideal for digital dental solutions in subdivision fields such as implant, restoration, and orthodontics. It is an accurate DLP resin 3D-printing device that features simple operation and according to Flashforge a reliable resin 3D-printer with convenient maintenance for dental clinics and mid to high-end denture processing factories at home and abroad. To resin 3D-print accurate dental models and applications it is important that the shrinkage adjustment and outline compensation is dialed in properly. These parameters can be found below for the Liqcreate dental and engineering 3D-printing resins.
