Problems solved by technology

As we all know, UV light has certain environmental hazards. When it irradiates human skin, it can cause skin erythema and aging. Limits the improvement of printing efficiency
[0004] Especially when printing some multi-color models, such as human organ models, in order to restore the shape of the organs more realistically, it is necessary to use a variety of different materials to express blood vessels, bones, institutions and other tissues in the workpiece, because different 3D printing materials The light absorption range is different, so the monochromatic light source 3D printer cannot meet the printing of various materials
