What Types of Industries Benefit from Custom Resin 3D Printing?
Medical and Healthcare
The medical industry leverages custom resin 3D printing for surgical models, dental aligners, hearing aids, and biocompatible implants. Using medical-grade biocompatible resins, Neway enables accurate, patient-specific components with resolutions down to 25 microns. The fast turnaround and design flexibility are crucial for prototyping and low-volume production of custom medical devices.
Consumer Electronics
In consumer electronics, resin printing provides high-resolution enclosures, button prototypes, and functional test parts. Technologies such as DLP and CLIP support the rapid development of finely detailed housings and structural features using engineering resins that simulate final part performance.
Dental and Orthodontics
Resin 3D printing is a standard in dental applications, including crown models, surgical guides, and aligner molds. Dental resins are optimized for intraoral use, enabling highly precise results with excellent dimensional stability. This supports digital dentistry workflows that demand both biocompatibility and resolution.
Jewelry and Fashion
For the jewelry sector, castable resins are used to produce intricate wax-like patterns for investment casting. This eliminates the need for traditional hand carving and supports short-run custom jewelry collections with excellent surface detail and fine feature fidelity.
Automotive and Engineering
In engineering and automotive development, tough, durable, and high-temperature resins are ideal for prototyping functional components such as brackets, airflow ducts, and housings. Resin printing enables engineers to iterate designs quickly and validate part performance under simulated conditions.
Education and Research
Educational institutions and R&D labs use resin 3D printing for material testing, device prototyping, and research models. The wide variety of standard and transparent resins allows experimentation across optics, microfluidics, and bioengineering.
