Formlabs ESD Resin (Form 4) 1 L

Formlabs ESD Resin (Form 4) 1 L

ESD Resin is a specialty material designed for producing custom static-dissipative prototypes and production tooling. It is engineered to increase operational efficiency and improve the yield of electronics manufacturing lines. Parts printed in ESD Resin have a high modulus and impact strength similar to ABS, making them durable enough for the factory floor.

This 1-litre cartridge is optimised for the Form 4 ecosystem, allowing you to prototype and validate electronics production workflows. Use it to print static-dissipative parts that repel dust and powder, or to create custom enclosures that protect sensitive electronic components from unregulated static discharge.

Why choose ESD Resin?

Use ESD Resin to reduce risk and increase the yield on your manufacturing line by 3D printing custom tools, jigs, and fixtures for automotive, aerospace, and electronics industries.

• Static-dissipative: protect your critical electronics from unregulated static discharge to prevent component failures (surface resistivity: 10⁵ - 10⁸ Ω/sq).
• High toughness: with its high modulus and impact strength, this resin is made to withstand repetitive use on a production line.
• Injection-moulded quality: produces high-detail parts with a smooth surface finish that rivals traditional manufacturing methods.
• Operational efficiency: quickly iterate on custom trays and handling tools to streamline your assembly and storage processes.

Applications for ESD Resin:

ESD Resin is a cost-effective solution for producing static-dissipative parts designed to endure rigorous industrial environments.

• Tooling and fixturing: custom jigs and fixtures for electronics assembly and manufacturing.
• Anti-static prototypes: functional models for end-use components that require ESD safety.
• Component handling: custom trays, bins, and storage solutions for sensitive electronic parts.
• Protective enclosures: housings designed to shield internal electronics from electrostatic discharge.

Post-processing

Washing

The foundational step in any SLA post-processing workflow is to remove any excess resin on the surface of the parts through an alcohol or ether wash.

Curing

Post-curing engineering and specialty resins is essential for parts to achieve their full strength and functionality. This step completes the chemical reaction initiated during printing, transforming the part from its green state into a fully finished component.

Note: Only compatible with the Formlabs Form 4 series resin printer.
