Ensure Material Consistency for Large-Scale Prints
The Form 4L Mixer is engineered specifically for the larger resin tank volume of the Form 4L and 4BL printers. By gently circulating resin across the entire build area, the mixer ensures that pigments and additives remain perfectly suspended, preventing print failures and ensuring uniform mechanical properties from the first layer to the last.
Why the Form 4L Mixer is Essential
-
Uniformity at Scale: The Form 4L tank has a much larger surface area than the standard Form 4. The mixer is specifically calibrated to move resin across this larger area to prevent pigment setting.
-
Optimized for High-Viscosity Resins: Whether printing with standard resins or high-performance engineering materials, the mixer maintains the precise resin consistency required for the Low Force Display (LFD) engine.
-
Easy Installation: Designed for a tool-free, magnetic snap-in installation, allowing you to swap mixers quickly when changing resin tanks.
-
Durable Construction: Built to withstand thousands of hours of operation within the heated environment of the printer, ensuring reliable performance throughout the lifespan of your resin tank.
FAQ
Do I Need a Separate Mixer for Every Tank?
Yes. To prevent cross contamination of different resin types, it is best practice to keep a dedicated mixer with each tank. Mixing residues from a previous material can compromise the chemical properties of your new print.
How Often Should I Clean the Mixer?
The mixer should be cleaned whenever you perform a tank swap. Gently rinse it in a bath of 99% IPA to remove any excess resin, then allow it to air dry completely before reinstalling or storing it.
Can I Use a Form 4 Mixer in a Form 4L?
No. The Form 4L Mixer is specifically sized for the dimensions of the 4L/4BL resin tank. Using an incorrect mixer size can cause mechanical errors or damage to the tank film.
