Hi all,
Looking for suggestions for a printer that is at least as good as the Form 2 (by Formlabs) in terms of accuracy.
The official specs of the From 2 are:
XY (point accuracy) - 140 microns
Z - 100,50,25 microns
After some research I've got the understanding that the Form 2 is no longer the leading (semi-professional desktop) printer in terms of resolution accuracy, and UV-DLP printig method has better precision and faster print times (in exchange for a smaller build volume, in general).
The thing is that i can't find any decent reviews for the majority of the (SLA/DLP) printers, and from the dozens of printers that use liquid resin tech. (that can be found on this site) there are only a few decent and practical reviews, something more than just unboxing and printing generic test models.
Attached is a model that was successfully printed (a number of times) on the Form 2, now I'm looking for a better option (if there is such...).
So if anybody has any practical experience, or has a source of good reviews for SLA/DLP printers that can replace and outperform the Form 2.
Best,
DS
