ProTips for Printing with IMPACT™ Resin
Print Solid
For maximum durability, print models as solid structures. If hollowing, add sizable drain holes and ensure walls are at least 5mm thick for strength.
Heavy Supports
To prevent print failures, use thicker supports on key areas, especially for larger or complex models requiring extra stability.
Layer Heights
Use a layer height of 50 microns or less to achieve high accuracy, fine details, and better structural integrity in your prints.
Post-Cure 60mins
Post-cure prints for at least 60 minutes under UV light to enhance strength, impact resistance, and long-term durability.
IMPACT™ Resin: Printing Guide for Optimal Results
IMPACT™ Resin is engineered for durability and precision, supporting layer heights from 25 to 200 microns. For best results, models can be printed solid or hollow. When printing hollow models, include adequate drain holes to remove trapped resin and ensure walls are at least 5mm thick for added strength.
To minimise warping or stress from adhesion to the FEP film, orient large flat surfaces at an angle and use heavy, well-placed supports to stabilise unsupported areas and maintain detail accuracy.
This resin performs optimally with a recommended normal layer exposure of 2.5 seconds when printing with a 50 microns (0.05mm) layer height on most MSLA 3D printers. Adjust settings as needed and use a calibration model to fine-tune your printer for IMPACT™ Resin. For guidance, refer to our detailed printer settings page.

Step-by-Step Guide to Finishing IMPACT™ Resin Prints
For best results with Monocure3D IMPACT™ Resin, follow these post-processing steps to achieve maximum strength, durability, and precision:
1. Pre-Wash: Use ResinAway® to remove uncured resin from your print. Gently scrub the surface with a soft brush in a container of ResinAway® to remove excess resin effectively.
2. Final Wash: For hard-to-reach areas or fine details, place the part in an ultrasonic cleaner filled with ResinAway® for 3–5 minutes to dislodge any trapped resin.
3. Drying: Thoroughly dry the part using compressed air or lint-free cloth before post-curing. Ensure no residue from ResinAway® or IPA remains, which can affect the curing process.
4. Post-Curing: IMPACT™ Resin requires post-curing to achieve its final mechanical properties:
- A 405nm LED Ultraviolet curing chamber is used to cure the model.
- Cure for at least 60 minutes to maximise strength and impact resistance.
- Allow the model’s mechanical properties to improve over a few days after curing.
5. Finishing Touches (Optional): To protect and enhance your prints:
- Sand, machine, or polish your prints for a smooth finish.
- Apply paint or a protective varnish for enhanced durability and aesthetics.
