The Lumen X+ builds solid hydrogels by beginning with a droplet of light-sensitive, liquid PhotoInk™ in a vat. An industrial blue-light projector exposes a series of images onto the vat, like a slideshow. The areas of the droplet that are exposed will crosslink and solidify into a single layer. The build platform moves up to allow each layer to stack and build the part.
