* Z resolution is adjustable from single digit microns to multiple hundred microns, and can be optimized through working with Carbon on your target application.
** For more information about accuracy, please refer to Carbon DLS accuracy guidelines for engineering materials and dental materials.
*** Included in your subscription with regular OTA software updates about every eight weeks.
**** Be aware that models drawn to the precise XY maximum will not fit on the platform when correction scale is applied for the selected resin. Carbon recommends adjusting down your design dimensions below the full build volume. Reference the typical scaling range and geometry dependent resins for more guidance.
† Compatible via the Smart Part Washer basket.
