ALTANA Cubic Ink Rigid 1600 VP – Affordable Functional Prototyping Resin (DLP/LCD/mSLA)
Affordable, high-precision functional prototyping resin for industrial applications — with balanced strength, thermal and chemical resistance for DLP/LCD systems.
- ✓ 62 MPa tensile · 3000 MPa modulus · HDT-B 80 °C — stiff, dimensionally stable
- ✓ Excellent chemical resistance (<2.5% mass gain) & 0.2% water uptake
- ✓ High-precision printing on DLP/LCD; uncolored, black, red
- ✓ A cost-effective functional prototyping material (alternative to Loctite PRO410)
What your process engineer actually checks
Precision and strength we can validate
The 62 MPa tensile, 3000 MPa modulus and HDT-B 80 °C come straight from the ALTANA TDS. We help set exposure and post-cure so prototypes come out precise and robust.
A materials engineer on the line
Factory-trained support, not a remote ticket queue. We help you match Rigid 1600 to your prototyping needs and printer. Sub-24h reply, NDA standard.
