This 3D printer with variable print resolution is capable of combining both resolutions in a single build to offer more flexibility and greater efficiency for ultrahigh-resolution applications.

Boston Micro Fabrication’s (BMF) microArch D1025 is part of its microprecision 3D printer series, developed to provide dual-resolution for flexible, high-precision 3D printing of parts that require micron-level precision and repeatability.

This flexible printing solution for microscale and ultrahigh-resolution applications prints in either 10-micron or 25-micron resolution, or in hybrid mode with both resolutions in the same print layer or in different layers.

Built upon BMF’s patented Projection Micro Stereolithography (PµSL) technology, the microArch D1025 enables more efficiency within the 3D printing process, enabling users across health care, electronics, life sciences and photonics applications to print two resolutions within a single layer.

Using a technique that enables rapid photopolymerization of layers of liquid polymer using a flash of UV light at microscale resolution, the 25-micron resolution mode can be used for parts in which the features don’t require ultrahigh resolution and 10-micron mode supports small, complex features to optimize the 3D printing process. Users also have the ability to choose to print a single build in either 25 microns or 10 microns depending upon the part geometry, providing greater flexibility and efficiency across all applications and industries.

“Our driving motivation for innovation has been to offer new platforms that can help realize high-value applications for 3D printing. Increasingly, we have been pushed by our customers to bring our technology to applications where higher precision and tighter tolerances would result in an overall increase in quality and performance, regardless of part size,” says John Kawola, BMF CEO-Global. “The launch of the microArch D1025 continues our commitment to answer this call, combining the advances of the microArch S350 25-micron platform with the high-resolution capability of our 10-micron printer into one powerful, flexible solution for our customers.”

In addition to offering dual platform capabilities, the microArch D1025 delivers enhanced, built-in automation and easy shifting between resolution modes to optimize the user experience while saving time, resources and cost.
