1. Introduction
APPLICATIONS
BioMed Clear Resin is a USP Class VI certified, light-curable polymer based
material designed for the additive manufacturing of medical grade, biocompatible,
clear, and rigid parts for long term Surface contact (more than 30 days). It can be
used for manufacturing medical devices and 3D printing components that require
water resistance, high impact strength, and sterilization compatibility.
Users should independently verify the suitability of the printed materials for their
particular application and intended purpose.
BioMed Clear is a photopolymer resin made of a mixture of methacrylic esters
and photoinitiators.
2. Specific Manufacturing Considerations
NOTIFICATION
The device specifications have been validated using the printer process
parameters indicated below.
REQUIREMENTS
Use dedicated accessories for BioMed Clear Resin. For biocompatibility
compliance, BioMed Clear requires a dedicated resin tank, build platform,
Formlabs wash units, and finishing kit, which should not be mixed with any other
resins.
