When choosing a display for a 3D printer, you need to consider multiple factors to ensure that the display can meet the performance requirements and printing results of the 3D printer. Here are some key considerations and recommendations:
Technology type:
LCD: LCD displays are very popular in light-curing 3D printers because of their high cost-effectiveness, high resolution, fast printing speed, simple structure and easy operation. LCD technology uses liquid crystal panels for imaging, and controls the arrangement of liquid crystal molecules to block or allow light to pass through to form an image.
SLA and DLP: Although these two technologies are also used in light-curing 3D printing, LCD is generally more advantageous in terms of cost-effectiveness and ease of use.
Resolution:
The resolution of the display is critical to the quality of the print. A high-resolution display can capture more details, resulting in more detailed print results.
When choosing, you should refer to the resolution range recommended by the printer manufacturer and make a choice based on the actual printing needs.
Printing speed:
The transmittance of the display directly affects the printing speed. A display with high transmittance allows more light to pass through, thereby shortening the exposure time and improving printing efficiency.
For example, a black and white screen has a higher transmittance than a color screen, so it prints faster.
Service life: The service life of the display is another important consideration. Long-term use and high-intensity UV exposure may cause the display to age or damage. When choosing, you can pay attention to the display life data provided by the manufacturer and consider purchasing a display with a longer life.
Compatibility of light source and resin: The compatibility between the display and the resin material used for printing is also a factor to consider. Different resin materials may have different requirements for the display. When choosing, you should ensure that the display is compatible with the resin material used to ensure the best printing effect.
Cost: Cost is also one of the factors to consider when choosing a display. The prices of display screens of different brands and models vary greatly, and should be selected based on budget and actual needs.
In summary, when choosing a display screen suitable for a 3D printer, you should consider factors such as technology type, resolution, printing speed, service life, compatibility of light source and resin, and cost. In the selection process, you can refer to the recommendations of the printer manufacturer and make trade-offs and choices based on actual printing needs.
