Standard Lite Gets a Rainbow
ANTINSKY has expanded its popular injection-moulding-safe Standard Lite Resin line with 5 new translucent colors. The 1 kg bottles now cover a clear family that is popular with jewellery makers, miniature painters and functional-prototype users alike, and the whole line pairs a fast cure profile with surprisingly clean surface detail.
Why Translucent Resin Matters
- Better printed object inspection — translucent bodies reveal internal supports and wall thickness at a glance.
- Colour stacking — translucent layers let you back-paint, back-light or tint models for LED and lighting projects.
- Lower shrinkage anxiety — translucent resins are often dialled in with gentler exposure, which can reduce fine-line distortion on curved surfaces.
The 5 Colors in the Line-up
| Color | Best For | Layer Cure Guidance |
|---|---|---|
| Clear | Jewellery, display cases | 0.05 mm @ 2.2–2.6 s |
| Ice White | Prototypes, minis | 0.05 mm @ 2.2–2.6 s |
| Sky Blue | Lithophanes, lighting | 0.05 mm @ 2.2–2.6 s |
| Teal | Art pieces, gaming | 0.05 mm @ 2.2–2.6 s |
| Amber | Vintage replicas, signage | 0.05 mm @ 2.2–2.6 s |
Times are a starting point for a standard 405 nm LCD printer; always run an exposure matrix for your exact printer and ambient temperature.
Exposure Tuning Tip
Translucent resins behave like their opaque cousins but reward a shorter burn-in layer and a moderate bottom layer count. If your clear prints look milky, raise the normal layer exposure by 5–10% before changing bottom layers; if they look yellowed, check your curing station time rather than the resin itself.
