Siraya Tech Fast ABS-Like 3D Printer Resin, Non-Brittle, Navy Grey, 1kg

I'm in the middle of an engineering project (basically a custom RC plane), and needed some small, precise parts that still need to take decently significant loads. Of course print quality and resolution is a more a matter of what printer you have, but I can say this stuff printed fantastically on my Photon Mono S with the settings recommended by Siraya Tech (you can find a spreadsheet on their website). The parts that I got are incredibly strong. I know this is an ABS-like filament, but I've legitimately gotten better performance out of these than actual ABS from an FDM printer. That is most likely because printing orientation does not matter nearly as much, so the parts turn out mostly isotropic (equal strength in all directions). I'll describe some of the cases I used this for below. MY USE CASES: One of the parts was a stepper motor gear (28BYJ-48) that needed to deal with up to 0.1N*m of torque. I can tell after a lot of use, the section that meshes with the stepper pin has worn down from perfectly tight, to having maybe 3-5 degrees of slack, but it's still perfectly usable. Many of the parts require linkages between them, so I printed 5mm pins. In my case, I had to reduce the size of the pins to about 95% to avoid clearance issues, but once they were in place the pins had very little friction while still providing very tight joints. Additionally, those pins could handle a surprising amount of shear force. I tested with a 5kg weight, so statically that's about 2.5MPa, but I also drop tested with that rig, so it could have easily reached 25MPa at one point. CLEANING: Specifically regarding this resin, you have to empty and clean your vat within 2 days if you don't plan on printing again. This stuff will separate into layers in about that time and becomes harder to clean off the vat. Also, water curing has yielded good results for me. If you've never resin printed before this part is for you, otherwise move along: Cleaning the prints is quite a hassle. They come out coated in liquid uncured resin which is, in the case of this resin, definitely a nasty skin irritant and potentially toxic if ingested (most resins are). You'll need LOTS of isopropyl or denatured alcohol, at least like 2 or 3 tubs or large tupperware containers, lots of paper towels, definitely more gloves than your printer comes with, and some way to get rid of the fumes. The alcohol is smelly enough, but this resin is definitely nasty stuff to be around. You have to be very careful not to get it on your skin or other surfaces (as it is quite drippy off the printer). With this resin, I got the best results by cleaning with alcohol from a spray bottle, then rinsing in water for 30 seconds, and then submerging in a cleaner tub of water before leaving in the sun (for 45 minutes) or shining with a bright UV light (1 minute or more, flipping the part with tweezers). I tend to keep one tupperware container for the alcohol cleaning process, which is very thick with uncured resin, one container for dirty rinse water, and one for clean water (and a bonus extra container to place all my contaminated tools and paper towels). I can usually run with this setup for several prints without changing out the liquids, which is nice because you CANNOT wash this stuff down the drain (unless you want even more micro-plastics in the ocean), and it absolutely has to be cured before you dispose of it. I typically save my 2-liter bottles and old mouthwash bottles, dump everything into those, and leave them out in the sun for a day before putting in the trash. CONCLUSION: If you can deal with the hassle of cleaning and PROPERLY discarding of the waste, then this resin produces results that you simply cannot get with other printing methods. Sure, FDM printing is less toxic and usually easier to get larger prints with, but the precision and speed of resin printing is unmatched. Usually that comes at the cost of poor physical proteries, but with this resin, you can get really small, precise parts with fantastic physical properties.

I have used both the "regular" and the "tough" variant of this (Amazon lists them as colors.) The difference seems to be that the tough has some of Siraya Tech's Tenacious resin added. This resin is also excellent, and it gives the prints a degree of flexibility -- they are not brittle at all, and they print perfectly even with "light" supports. The "tough" version is absolutely great for printing DnD Miniatures. They come through clean with light supports, and they are more than adequately detailed to make the end product depend on your painting skills more than your printer. Best of all, you can drop them without fear, and I have yet to have one fail during the printing process. Highly recommended.

This resin is absolutely superb. I undertook a challenging 3D print job that consisted of very large pieces that needed precision to with interlocking gasket faces to be assembled. I tried several resins, but I was encountering multiple issues that resulted in print failures: separation from supports, drooping and distortion from the build plate, warping and bowing of the sides, and pitting from shrinkage. Basically nothing was turning out properly to my liking, and to get it even close required laying out a dense forest of supports just to get each print to hold on. And the stuff was soft and scratched easily even after curing. I switched to the Siraya Tech smoky black and the results are like night and day. I've had virtually zero warping and distortion, and parts are fitting together with precision that exceeded my wildest expectations. I've had zero print failures, and even am using significantly lower density of supports, which both saves on resin, and post print cleanup. In terms of cleanup, the resin sands, files, and polishes nicely, and the translucent color helps a bit with dry fitting prints. I'd recommend wet sanding in order to keep down on dust. After curing, the resin is sturdy and decently scratch-resistant. It feels something similar to Lego plastic. Surface takes primer and paint well. Printing on a Saturn 2, exposure calibration was a breeze (2.5 seconds). Additionally with the plug-in air filter, and odor is minimal.

I really like this resin. It produces really nice prints in less time than any other resin I've tried. The prints look really good and are quite a bit less brittle than most other resins I've used. The prints aren't as tough as the prints I make from Blu, but that's okay. This resin has less odor than any other resin I've tried. It's a low viscosity resin and cleans very easily with isopropyl alcohol. The only negative I can think of regarding this resin is that it's not currently compatible with the plastic vat that comes with the Phrozen Sonic Mini. The plastic the vat is made of causes the resin to cure in a layer around the inside of the vat. That isn't a fault of the resin though, it's a fault with the Phrozen vat. I'd recommend this resin wholeheartedly, with the caveat that it doesn't play nicely with the plastic vat that currently ships with the Phrozen Sonic Mini. SIraya Tech did a fantastic job with this resin.

Been using this with my Uniformation GKtwo resin printer, the details are great. Its not brittle like another resin I tried after, so if it ain't broke, don't fix it right? The liquid doesn't have a heavy smell either, my ventilation set up makes it virtually no smell. After it cures, it is easy to sand. It also seem easy to scratch so be careful taking prints off the build plate before you cure it. I also love the dark navy grey color on the prints. My main complaint about this resin is that it doesn't seem to fill all the way to 1kg. After buying 3 bottles of it, it always came to about 850kg (from the slicer software perspective), and I've always let my prints drip dry so it shouldn't have had much waste. Minor complaint is that the cap will leak after you open it the first time, so between prints when you shake the bottle, I ended up having resin drips from the cap after I screwed it back on tight. Solution was simple: put it in a zip lock bag after initial use. Until I find a cheaper alternative, I'll keep going back to this resin as my main choice.

I've been using this resin on a Peopoly Phenom and it works beautifully. I use the resin settings on Siraya Tech's website. Peopoly also provides resin settings which are slightly different but I haven't tried them. The resin prints great every time, the surface quality is smooth, supports are easy to pull off, it has low odor relative to other resins I've used, and it has fairly low viscosity so it's a breeze to clean. The Phenom is a large scale printer that has special requirements so there's a limited set of resins available for it. I was using Peopoly's deft resin but this resin is half the price, prints just as good (if not better), and is readily available on Amazon with prime shipping whereas deft resin is often out-of-stock in the US so I have to pay expensive international shipping. I'm very happy I found this product. I tried using Siraya Tech Blu's resin on the Phenom and I kept getting failed prints since the resin wouldn't stick to the build plate. Also, that resin is a lot more viscous so it's harder to clean so I wouldn't recommend that resin for the Phenom.

Pretty good strong for small pieces and minis Doesn’t smell as much

Been using this resin for years and always get great results. It's low viscosity and prints fine details beautifully.

Realmente no la compararia con ninguna, es una resina standard de la misma calidad que cuaqlquiera, el olor es similar a las de 30 euros, la calidad final igual, es quebradiza, si se te cae la pieza de la mesa se rompe, no entiendo la fama que lleva, perosnalmente no veo que sea una gran resina.

Súper buena para impresión 3d y trabajos dentales

Me ha sorprendido mucho para bien. En primer lugar, las dos resinas Siraya fast que he probado, huelen mucho menos que otras que he tenido. En cuanto a resistencia/tenacidad, no he hecho pruebas, pero en mi caso no es lo que busco. El acabado de la pieza, mate, en ese gris marino, y el nivel de detalle y resolución, son espectaculares. La figura está impresa con una Elegoo Mars 3 pro (4k) y estoy muy satisfecho con el resultado. Recomiendo 100%.

I princip alla mina modeller har smält/spruckit och inte härdat. Köp inte detta resin!

90% de esta y 10% de tenacius, la mejora de resistencia es abismal! lo malo que la tenacius mucho mas cara pero ese 10% lo vale!!
