HeyGears, a 3D printing company with more than 8 years of experience producing 3D printing solutions across a wide range of industries, recently released its first desktop resin 3D printer for consumers, the UltraCraft Reflex.
HeyGears is bringing its expertise and production capabilities into the consumer market. Creators and makers consistently look to bring their ideas to life; however, many existing 3D printing solutions on the market lack interconnected processes or ease of use. In addition, many companies create 3D printers, but very few offer the integrated intelligent features that HeyGears has introduced with the UltraCraft Reflex.
The UltraCraft Reflex Combo is an all-in-one solution consisting of the Reflex 3D printer, a wash unit, and a cure unit. This all-encompassing solution is managed via Blueprint Studio, HeyGears’ seamless and easy to use software system. HeyGears is among the few 3D printing companies that have built interconnected and user-friendly ecosystems, making the entire 3D printing process a breeze from preparation to final curing.
Simple and Easy to Use
The UltraCraft Reflex is designed as a one-stop production platform that simplifies 3D printing and makes it accessible for beginners to experienced professionals alike. A simple step-by-step process guides you throughout the preparation, support adding, layout, and slicing stages of your print, and after printing the washing and curing units feature one-click easy operation.
Results Focused Printing Strategies
The UltraCraft Reflex uses interconnected and intelligent print strategies to help users achieve their desired print results.
HeyGears is bringing its strong software expertise to the UltraCraft Reflex to help manage the complete printing process via its preprocessing and print management system, Blueprint Studio. With Blueprint Studio and its printability analysis feature, users can check whether their print can be successfully produced before starting and even use the model repair feature to increase printability, reducing wasted efforts.
During the print stage, printer parameters such as exposure time, platform movement speed, peeling force, and pressing force are automatically adjusted based on the requirements of the print job.
The UltraCraft Reflex’ post-processing units, the Wash and Cure, are also able to auto-set the time needed for each step based on the selected print strategy. This means users can focus more on creating their ideas and waste less time calculating the parameters for each step of printing and post-processing.
Smart & Intelligent Features
The UltraCraft Reflex features TrueUV technology – which uses high-energy wavelengths of ultraviolet light to enhance the print results. This cutting-edge technology maximizes the material performance of your print while maintaining surface quality and long-term stability. Advanced algorithms which handle three-dimensional anti-aliasing, multi-layer exposure analysis and compensation, as well as smart support identification and exposure are utilized to improve surface smoothness, maintain fine details, and make supports more efficient and easy to remove.
The UltraCraft Reflex is equipped with detectors that keep track of the room temperature, print chamber temperature, resin levels, release film’s lifespan, and peeling force. By working together, these detectors guide the automatic adjustments necessary to maximize printing success. The print tray is self-heating, ensuring that your resin stays at optimal temperatures even if printing in a cold environment.
With auto resin refilling, users don’t have to worry about running out of material while printing. Real-time notifications will also keep you informed of the printing progress and if problems are detected. With the numerous automated features built into the Reflex, users can have peace of mind knowing that they are all set to get successful results for their prints.
Beginners and experts alike will find that the features and operation of the UltraCraft Reflex are clear, straightforward, and require minimal 3D printing experience. HeyGears prioritizes user experience when designing 3D printers, which is why they have been able to develop many successful 3D printing solutions over the years. The UltraCraft Reflex showcases how intelligent 3D printing systems can assist you to shape your ideas.
