What happens to prints that are left out in the sun?
Formlabs SLA printers use a 405 nm laser to create printed parts. The Form Cure uses light and heat in conjunction to post-cure printed parts. They become more brittle and change color due to the 405 nm light and heat present in sunlight. Formlabs recommends leaving liquid resin in resin cartridges in direct sunlight to naturally cure these materials for disposal.
