The 9K monochrome LCD (18µm XY accuracy) delivers crisp miniature and jewelry detail at a price point that was prosumer territory two years ago.
Smart sensor-based auto-leveling removes the most frustrating part of entry resin ownership — manual bed tramming is eliminated.
The tilt-release mechanism combined with a fast-curing monochrome LCD enables 150 mm/hr — completing small miniature batches in 30–60 minutes.
The 14K monochrome LCD delivers exceptional detail at 16.8µm — sharper than most consumer resin printers and ideal for miniatures, dental models, and jewelry masters.
An integrated peristaltic pump monitors resin levels and automatically refills from an external bottle, while built-in vat heating maintains optimal resin temperature — features previously found only on industrial machines.
The M7 Pro's self-leveling floating build plate eliminates manual bed tramming entirely — set up once and never level again.
