<strong>NOTE: Resin printing is known to suffer from bending or warping, so it is not suggested for structural or modular pieces</strong>

FDM: Bambu Lab P1S 3D Printer

NOTE: You can use Anycubic water washable 8k resin with this printer.

What is ACF film (Advanced Composite Film) for resin printing?

The ACF Film features a bottom, frosted layer film that creates a softer and less suction force during printing. This remarkable attribute significantly enhances the success rate when printing challenging resins with high viscosity, ensuring exceptional results.
