Maximize your production capabilities with the high-capacity Formlabs Grey Pro Resin Form 3, 5L container. Designed for high-volume workflows, this bulk cartridge system requires a compatible Resin Pump to integrate seamlessly with your SLA printing setup. This engineering-grade material represents a significant upgrade from standard photopolymers, offering exceptional versatility for professionals who need more than just visual prototypes. By combining high precision with moderate elongation and low creep, it serves as a reliable choice for functional parts that must endure mechanical stress and deformation over time.
Why Choose Formlabs Grey Pro Resin Form 3, 5L?
Durability Meets Precision
The primary advantage of this material lies in its balanced mechanical properties. Unlike standard resins that may become brittle or deform under load, Grey Pro is engineered for toughness and heat resistance. It exhibits low creep, meaning it can withstand sustained stress and hold its original shape over long periods. This makes it an ideal candidate for parts that are handled repeatedly or subjected to impact energy, as the material absorbs shock without shattering.
Engineering-Grade Performance
In addition to its structural integrity, this resin offers high thermal stability, allowing for the creation of components that manage hot air, gas, or fluid flow. Despite its toughness, it does not sacrifice surface quality. You can expect smooth finishes and fine details, making it suitable for "looks-like" prototypes that also need to perform like final production parts. Whether you are iterating on a new product design or manufacturing aids for the shop floor, this material delivers consistent results.
Versatile Applications and Workflow
From Concept to Reality
The Formlabs Grey Pro Resin Form 3, 5L is widely used across various industries for rigorous hands-on testing. It is particularly effective for creating mold masters used in silicone and plastic casting, as well as prototyping injection-molded products. Engineers and designers frequently utilize this resin for form and fit testing, ensuring that assemblies work correctly before committing to expensive tooling. It is also the material of choice for manufacturing custom jigs and fixtures.
Post-Processing Recommendations
To achieve the optimal mechanical properties listed in the technical specifications, proper post-processing is essential. The workflow begins with washing the parts in isopropyl alcohol or ether to remove uncured resin from the surface. While curing is sometimes optional for general-purpose materials, Formlabs recommends a short post-curing cycle for Grey Pro. This step significantly reduces surface tackiness, improves heat resistance, and enhances the overall strength of the printed object.
