Post-Processing
Washing
The foundational step in any SLA post-processing workflow is to remove any excess resin on the surface of the parts through an alcohol or ether wash.
Settings: Form Wash | Form Wash L
Curing
Post-curing for General Purpose Resins is optional. However, Formlabs recommends a short post-cure to reduce surface tack and improve mechanical properties.
Settings: Form Cure V1 | Form Cure V2 | Form Cure L V1 | Form Cure L V2

See what our customers say about Evo3D
Real feedback from customers who have worked with Evo3D for 3D printers, materials, support and additive manufacturing solutions.
Good experience
“The order was completed but not dispatched for delivery. However, following a call with the company, they immidiately dispatched it with a discount offer for my next purchase. They had reasonable pricing and good customer service. Recommeded.”
Good team, striving to push UK Additive forward
“Olly, Martin, Jake and Martin have all been hugely supportive since our entry into larger scale 3D print last year, and continue to be so. Helpful in their initial advice, supportive since then to help us grow, and as a team they are actively pushing the limits to develop the large format in the UK. And always good to chat to as well!”
Excellent Supplier
“We have been working with Evo3D for about 6 months now and they have been an excellent resource and support to the business I work for. They have worked with us in all sorts of ways to get around any limitations and have supported our projects excellently”
