Evonik and 3D printing equipment manufacturer Asiga reached a cooperation to promote large-scale industrial 3D printing technology based on photosensitive resin

● Promote the development of large-scale industrial 3D printing manufacturing technology

● INFINAM® photosensitive resin is ideal material for Asiga DLP 3D printer

Specialty chemicals company Evonik and Australian 3D printing equipment manufacturer Asiga will strengthen cooperation in 3D printing technology based on photosensitive resins
.
The two companies plan to expand existing light curing technology and promote the development of large-scale industrial 3D printing manufacturing technology
.
In this cooperation, both parties will leverage their respective expertise and innovative advantages in the development and manufacture of ready-to-use photosensitive resin materials, as well as open material architecture DLP 3D printers
.

Explore the possibilities of infinite 3D printing applications

Dr.
Rainer Hahn, head of the photoresin segment in the innovative growth area of ​​additive manufacturing at Evonik, said: "The cooperation with Asiga reaffirms our model of driving business growth through the INFINAM® photoresin product line.
The
Asiga DLP 3D printer is compatible with the outstanding processing characteristics The combination of high-performance materials will bring huge benefits to customers, and we will help them explore endless new applications
.
”

Evonik's new INFINAM® photosensitive resin is a ready-to-use high-performance material that can be used directly in the Asiga DLP 3D printer
.

Asiga is an innovation enabler in desktop stereolithography
.
The company launched the world's first LED-based DLP 3D printer in 2011
.
Today, the company focuses on a variety of process monitoring technologies aimed at improving the accuracy and production stability of components in medical, general manufacturing, and many other applications
.
Asiga has a wide variety of product lines, including powerful desktop 3D printers represented by the MAX series, and high-power floor-standing machines such as the PRO 4K
.

Graham Turner, General Manager of Global Operations at Asiga, said: “We are continuously enhancing our open material architecture
.
It is an honor to offer our customers Evonik’s INFINAM® range of photosensitive resins
.
By combining new developments in Evonik’s additive polymer material development with our Combined with industrial-grade 3D printing equipment, we will create a powerful additive manufacturing solution with endless possibilities
.

New INFINAM® Photosensitive Resin Product Line

Last year, Evonik launched a new line of photosensitive resins suitable for industrial-grade 3D printing technology
.
The first ready-to-use material, INFINAM® TI 3100 L, can be used to manufacture 3D printed parts with extremely high hardness and good impact resistance
.
The material resists permanent mechanical effects such as strong shocks or punching
.
INFINAM® ST 6100 L sets a new benchmark for high-strength resin materials
.
This material has a tensile strength of 89 MPa, a flexural strength of 145 MPa, and a thermal deformation temperature of 120 °C, filling the material gap of ultra-high-strength photosensitive resins
.
INFINAM® RG 3101 L combines outstanding impact resistance with high temperature resistance and exhibits long-lasting thermomechanical properties
.

Evonik's additive manufacturing innovation growth area brings together the Group's in-house 3D printing expertise and focuses on the development and manufacture of industrial-grade, ready-to-use materials for common 3D printing processes
.
To this end, Evonik created the INFINAM® brand and continues to promote the widespread application of large-scale industrial-grade 3D printing production technology throughout the value chain
