As part of the Superbowl halftime show, lighting was created by Backlit which gave the appearance of a videogame controller covering the football field. This lighting was connected by a tube clamp manufactured by Merit3D using IND 405, a Loctite material. The project “exceeded expectations” and was produced in time for the Superbowl. The part […]

Bryan, the tag’s creator, came to us with an initial design that focused

This part came with some material challenges. Initially, we tested the part in Hard from Photocentric. It purportedly passed the tests from the customer. Mistakes were made which resulted in the part being mass produced in a different material that was thought to be better than hard. When the product was used by consumers, it

Merit3D completed a medical project this month with 405 resin from Loctite (IND405). This is a significant expansion of our normal operations, which have historically centered around 465 resins. We are constantly testing new resins for new projects. The project required over 40 iterations resulting in a sleek, functional product. Thousands of parts were ordered

We have been delving into parts that need medical certification. This has been a can of worms. We have found that medical certification isn’t so much about the material as it is about the geometry of the part printed, though materials do need to be safe to interact with humans in their specific applications. We

We’ve been printing more parts in 405 resin on our Phrozen Mega 8k v2’s as well as our other Phrozen printers. These printers have a smaller build plate than most of our other printers, especially our Liquid crystal magnas from Photocentric. Because of the small build plate, we’ve been able to dial in new resins
