UV CURING ENCLOSURE 5 Print bed dimensions: 200x200 UNTESTED UV CURING ENCLOSURE 5 offers a flexible design, allowing it to be disassembled for compact storage and expanded to fit mirror tiles of any size. Choose any material or size (glass or plastic mirrors) with a minimum thickness of 3 mm. Originally designed for Ikea mirrors measuring 300x300x3, five units can be used in conjunction with the enclosure. For the lid opening, a Sykat UV-Lamp 115x85x90 is recommended. This lamp, specifically designed for SLA/DLP 405nm photosensitive resin, provides optimal curing conditions. UV Strips Led Light can be attached to the walls or used as an alternative lighting source. These strips can also cover gaps between mirrors. All components are connected with elastic ropes, allowing for customizable arrangements. Two types of clevises are available: small ones for connections with two clevises and long ones for connections with three clevises. A fast-connection version is also offered. Please note that this enclosure is open, with UV light still escaping through the gaps between mirrors. The structure's stability relies on the strength of the mirrors used. Use COUNTERSUNK M4 30mm bolts for assembly. Always follow safety guidelines and wear protective equipment when working with UV curing systems.

A central leg is recommended for larger sheets. Designed to print with support, this project is best suited for experienced users. By COSTA
