Laser Flare & the effects on your prints - Part II

Not great news.

The first part printed for the client at 0.1mm in clear v2, was a mess. It looks to have failed at about 80% and to me, it looks like the problem is getting worse.

I spent ages orientating this part to insure minimal peal force is required during the print. The wall thicknesses of the part are between 2.5mm & 3mm .

Orientation of the part.

Approximate failure point

Loads of part cured resin on the rearward face (the face perpendicular to my laser flare).

Some serious flaking running parallel with the my laser flare. This large piece was well before the print failed.

Poor rearward facing surfaces

I’m now seeing flaking on the supports again orientated parallel with my laser flare.
