Renowned for its affordable 3D printers, manufacturer FlashForge has quickly made a name for itself in the 3D printing market. It has developed several solutions based on melt deposition and photopolymerization, meeting a wide range of needs. Whether beginner or experienced, users can quickly get to grips with the machines offered by the Chinese brand. Among its resin 3D printers is the Focus 6K, a compact solution designed for the dental sector, like its sister model, the Focus 6K XL.
Features of the Focus 6K 3D printer
With a print volume of 197 x 122 x 200 mm, the Focus 6K remains a “classic” resin 3D printer, enabling the design of small, detailed, quality parts. It is relatively compact, weighing in at 22 kilos. It offers a resolution of 35 microns on the XY axis and a wavelength of 405nm. Its resin tank has a capacity of 0.5 liters. The machine also features a 7″ touch screen and is compatible with a wide variety of dental resins.
As far as applications are concerned, the Focus 6K 3D printer is ideal for meeting dental needs – we can imagine laboratories equipping themselves with this compact, space-saving machine. FlashForge has developed a complete workflow to facilitate the production of parts for this purpose – its FlashDental slicer, for example, has been specifically designed for this field of activity. Users can design their own gutters, cutting guides and investment casting molds.
