Customer Challenges and Pain Points
A customer who had been using 3D printing services for many years sent us a voice message filled with excitement: “Printing transparent master molds with NextShapes 8001 resin is such a relief—compared to the struggles I had before!” We were truly happy to hear that.
For this customer, printing transparent master molds used to be the most frustrating part of the job. With other brands of resin, issues occurred frequently—printed molds often had a strong blue tint, causing color deviation that compromised the accuracy of the design and failed to meet clients’ demand for pure, crystal-clear molds. The resin was full of bubbles, obstructing visibility, and its purplish hue contributed to a high defect rate. Complaints from clients were common, returns and refunds became frequent, and her business suffered economically while her reputation in the industry declined.
The Advantages and Results of NextShapes 8001 Resin
At an industry seminar, the customer learned about NextShapes 8001 resin and subsequently placed an order. Upon receiving the shipment, she saw that the resin was crystal-clear with almost no bubbles, rekindling her confidence. When printing master mold samples, the 8001 resin quickly proved its value—its exceptional transparency made the molds appear as pure as crystal, with overall dimensional accuracy within 0.2 mm or 0.3%, precisely reproducing design details. The pure, color-free appearance delivered outstanding visual appeal.
“Even my long-time clients with the highest quality standards for master molds are full of praise when they see molds printed with 8001 resin. My order volume has multiplied several times compared to before!” the customer said excitedly.
