These films are composite films with a coating on one side to ensure great slippery. Used in LCD, DLP and SLA machines where fast printing is more important than quality/durable parts.
Note: The sides are directional. Do not put it upside down. See instructions on the film. There is a protective film on the actual eSLIP film. The protective film needs to be removed.
Difference between nFEP film and eSLIP/ACF film:
nFEP film is more elastic. As such, it is less likely to be damaged by residues in vat. It is recommended for all resin 3D printers, especially jewelry/dental applications where details and quality are more important. nFEP film has great air permeability, which leads to less vacuum suction force.
eSLIP/ACF film is more rigid and slippery. As such it needs a smaller lifting distance and prints can run faster. Printers with eSLIP film can have an overall 40% speed gain due to lower lifting distance needed. You also need to increase your bottom exposure time and normal exposure time by 20% because the film has 20% less light through rate. It is recommended for all resin 3D printers where faster printing is more important than outstanding details. However, if you leave residues in vat, the film is a bit easier to get damaged than nFEP film. The coating, and the 0.3mm thickness, lead to a bit loss of light accuracy. Fast printing resins, because they flow like water, are also not able to make strong and tough parts. Parts tend to be more brittle. As such, we don't offer fast printing resins. You can use the film with normal resins and it can still speed up somewhat due to lower lifting distance alone.
Here at EPAX 3D, we genuinely want you to be completely satisfied and enjoy your EPAX printer. We stand behind our printers and if something goes wrong, we are here to help.
