Four 2-plate test scaffolds were rendered using a 150 s exposure time and a 200 mW/dm2 irradiance. The resin used for these samples contained a 2:1 PPF/DEF ratio with 2 wt% BAPO and 1 wt% TiO2. For each test scaffold, the diameter of each plate was measured using digital calipers. The expected diameter was 6.0 mm. The observed error is approximately 2 times the Perfactory device’s tolerance of 35 microns.
This plate rendered well but was damaged during post-processing.
