The Original Prusa SL1S uses MSLA, which means that there is an LED array as it’s light source (405 nm) in combination with an LCD photomask to shape the light image. The Prusa SL1S is open source and therefore has full support for 3rd party 3D-printing resins. The Prusa SL1S Speed is able to reach a minimum layer height of 0.01 mm, but the recommended layer height by Prusa is 0.025-0.100 mm. Compared to the Original SL1, the Prusa SL1S has monochrome LCD screen, making it easier to 3D-print with resins that usually take longer to cure. In the linked article you can find the available settings for Liqcreate resins on SL1S. In this article you can find shrinkage optimization values in case you need to print very accurate dental models. Send us an e-mail to info@liqcreate.com if you need any support working with Liqcreate resins.

Resin 3D-printing accurate dental models on the Prusa SL1S.
It is important to fill in all parameters precisely. especially the scaling ratio and the parameters below that. This will give you accurate dental models with resin 3D-printing. If these values are not set, models can deviate upto 0,2mm from the original file!
