BMF Launches Next-Generation High-Speed Micro 3D Printers "microArch® S150 / S150 Ultra"

In recent years, the demand for high-precision fabrication of microstructures has been rapidly increasing in fields such as precision medical devices, microfluidic devices, and electronic components. However, simultaneously achieving "high precision," "productivity," and "cost efficiency" has been a major challenge. Against this backdrop, BMF (BMF Precision Technology), a micro 3D printer manufacturer boasting world-class precision in the field of precision manufacturing, is launching new high-precision micro 3D printers, "microArch® S150" and "microArch® S150 Ultra," in Japan. These products maintain industrial-level precision while significantly improving productivity through next-generation high-speed molding technology, achieving high cost performance.

Key Features of microArch® S150 / S150 Ultra

### 1. High Precision × High-Speed Molding × High Cost Performance

Achieves industrial-level high-precision fabrication with 25μm optical precision. Furthermore, leveling rollers promote resin flow, enabling both high-speed molding and high precision.

Particularly, the S150 Ultra achieves up to approximately 9 times faster molding speed compared to the S150, and up to approximately 20 times faster compared to the S240 (10μm precision), significantly contributing to productivity improvement.

### 2. Improved Operability and Workflow Efficiency

Integrated touch panel and built-in standard/custom parameters enable stable molding. In addition, a newly developed design eliminates the need for horizontal adjustment of the platform and film system, significantly reducing setup time for molding.

### 3. Potential for Diverse Material Compatibility

The resin tank heating function controls material viscosity, offering potential for compatibility with a wide range of functional materials. It also supports small-capacity tanks (optional) of 5ml / 20ml, contributing to reduced material loss during expensive material development and minute prototype evaluation.

### 4. Enhanced Stability and Durability

The platform, adopting DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating, improves wear resistance and contributes to enhanced platform durability. A clean air system equipped with HEPA13 filter and UV sterilization function ensures a stable molding environment and compatibility with bio-inks.
