Form1 printer

Manufactured by Formlabs

Sourced in United States

The Form1+ is a desktop 3D printer designed for professional and industrial use. It utilizes stereolithography (SLA) technology to create high-resolution, detailed 3D printed parts. The printer has a build volume of 125mm x 125mm x 165mm and can achieve layer resolutions as low as 25 microns.

The SBS consists of three main parts: 1) a Note 6 smartphone (Meizu Inc., China); 2) an adaptor; and 3) a peripheral attachment with an ingenious structure to assemble all optical elements. Detailed size information for manufacturing the adaptor and peripheral attachment is marked in Figure 2A. The adaptor and peripheral attachment are designed by SolidWorks, 3D printed by a Form1+ printer (Formlabs, USA) using EP Epoxy resin as the printing material, and sprayed with black paint.
The peripheral attachment interfaces the rear-facing CMOS camera which equips a 16-megapixel backside-illuminated sensor (4608 × 3456 pixels, ISO 800; white balance fixed; f-value 10; EV+1) of the smartphone with the adaptor. The peripheral attachment is assembled mechanically with a LED (NVSU233B-D4 U365nm), an optical filter (BP-365, Gladsome Photonics Technology Inc., China), a collecting lens (D3mm, f = 6.2 mm, Jintao Optoelectronics Inc., China), a cylindrical lens (f = 7.7 mm, 12 × 10 mm, Jintao Optoelectronics Inc., China), a diffraction grating (1200 lines/mm, 12 × 12 × 3 mm, Jintao Optoelectronics Inc., China) and a calibration lamp (RGB SMD TOP LED, Everlight Electronics Inc., China). The SBS is powered by a smartphone or a portable power bank.

3D-Printed Inserts for Medical Devices

The inserts used in this study were made with the SLA process on a Formlabs Form1 + printer. Using 3D computer-aided design software (SolidWorks; Dassault Systemes) solid models were designed then exported as SLA (.stl) files. Surfaces in 3D space were represented by a series of triangles then machine-specific software sliced the model into 100-μm layers and added support structures to attach the part to the printer’s build platform. The build platform was lowered into a tray containing approximately 200 ml resin (methacrylic acid esters, photoinitiators, proprietary pigment, and additive package), and a laser beam was directed by a mirror through the bottom of the translucent resin tray, curing the first layer of the model (or supports). The plate was raised and angled to separate the part from the bottom of the tray and then repositioned to a height of one layer thickness above the previous position to cure the following layer. This process was repeated until completion. Parts were washed in isopropyl alcohol to remove excess resin then postcured at 22°C for 1 h in an UV (405 nm) chamber.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
