Zortrax Curing Station

Zortrax is a Polish company founded in 2013 and focused on the development of professional 3D printing systems. Its main strength is the excellent optimisation and integration between its 3D printers, materials and software. This greatly simplifies the entire printing process, minimising set-up times and reducing the likelihood of failure to a minimum, making them ideal systems for professional environments.

In addition to its renowned range of filament LPD 3D printers, it also offers professional solutions for resin printing. The Zortrax Inkspire is one of the most compatible LED-LCD printers thanks to the large number of built-in profiles from manufacturers such as Harz Labs, Bluecast, Power Resins, Druckwege, Ameralabs, Applylabwork, Dreve and Siraya.

The Zortrax curing station is designed to provide the necessary UV curing to 3D printed models on a resin 3D printer and is fully automated. The UV exposure time is individually adjusted for each supported resin, typically within a few minutes. Its purpose is the post-processing of parts, achieving good results even with the most professional and demanding resins.

It is compatible with the most popular resin 3D printing technologies such as UV LCD, DLP and SLA.

The Zortrax Curing Station has a soft-close door with glass and a PMMA filter layer. Together, the two layers ensure that the user can safely observe the curing process without UV radiation leaving the curing chamber. The device has a sensor that immediately switches off the UV lamps when the door is opened.
