TGM-7 LED

Fast curing 3D resin for tabletop gaming miniatures

€27.00 – €299.00 excl. VAT

TGM-7 fast curing resin is designed specifically for 3D printing tabletop gaming miniatures. Perfect balance between stiffness, impact resistance and flex was found to protect miniatures from breaking when dropped or in heated gaming sessions. This 3D printing resin allows capturing most detailed miniatures with its hard, non-sticky and paintable surface. More flexibility, less fragility.

"We print our models using TGM-7 Tabletop Gaming Resin. This resin offers the ultimate solution for 3D printing tabletop models."

"We have tested over 400 resins in the last 4 years and we haven't found a better resin that works on LCD and DLP printers and provides this quality and durability at the same time for an affordable price. Stop breaking and reprinting your miniatures today. Use tried and tested exposure times and print effortlessly. "

"I have tried the TGM-7 and I am very impressed with both the detail and the durability. TGM-7 is, without any doubt, the best of 14 resins I’ve tested so far for printing miniatures."

"They say TGM-7 resin is designed specifically for 3D printing tabletop gaming miniatures for a reason. Fast curing, flexible and accurate, it produces very high detailed and stable models for our patrons. It’s quite hard to break them even if you really want to when you roll a 1 during your gaming sessions."

"TGM-7 resin has the flexibility that miniatures need, without losing any detail. I don't need to worry about anything breaking while painting or playing with those miniatures."

TGM-7 is one of the FASTEST curing resins for LCD printers!

Designed to work even on low powered LED/LCD 3D printers equipped with LED light sources emitting 405-420nm UV light.

Accuracy

Similarly to AMD-3, TGM-7 produces dimensionally accurate and stable prints. More flexibility and stiffness ensure that the 3D prints are precise but less brittle. Combined with paintable opaque and non-sticky surface, this resin is a perfect choice for miniatures that can be actively used for tabletop gaming.

Surface

Resin is available in grey. Carefully pigmented to get ideal color that expresses the most intricate details. Colour is almost fully opaque. Surface is non-sticky and hard (75-85 shore D). After post-cure, print does not feel sticky or tacky and is pleasant to touch. It does not scratch very easily. It can be primed and painted with most popular paints.

Moisture and chemical resistance

TGM-7 is not resistant to moisture. 3D printed objects with TGM-7 material should not be used for models and parts that will be in constant contact with water, organic solvents or other liquids.

Printing tips

We have a separate guide to get you started here: Key strategies for 3D printing with TGM-7 resin

In short, for a successful print, we recommend:

Level your build plate.
If it’s your first print with this resin, print something small first. We recommend this model.
Find initial printing settings here: https://ameralabs.com/3d-printing-settings/
Use support column thickness of 1.5-2mm, support tip thickness of 0.2-0.6mm.
Use attachment layer.
Hollow your models.
Use slower lift speeds. 5mm/min for bottom layers, 40-60mm/min for normal layers.

Cleaning procedure

We have a separate guide to get you started here: Key strategies for 3D printing with TGM-7 resin

TGM-7 material has a bit higher viscosity than most 3D printing resins. This 3D material should not be left submerged in solvents for extended periods of time. By all means do not leave submerged in IPA or any other liquid for more than 40 minutes. Doing so might ruin your models and affect final properties of polymer material.

If you use Anycubic Wash and Cure, leave the printed object submerged in IPA for 12 minutes. Depending on the results, you can repeat this step again and leave for additional 6 minutes.

If you prefer to clean with ordinary IPA baths, here is our easy 4 steps cleaning procedure:

After taking your printed object off the build plate leave it submerged in the IPA bath for 10 minutes.
Swirl the IPA bath with our part in it actively for another 1 minute.
After swirling, leave it still, but fully submerged for another 10 minutes. At this point it would be wise to change IPA to clean one.
Finally, swirl the bath actively again for 1 minute.

Evaluate cleaning results and repeat this procedure only once (if needed).

If you prefer cleaning with ultrasonic cleaner, we recommend to put a printed part into the container with IPA, close it well and put the container into the ultrasonic cleaner filled with water. Leave it for no more than 10 minutes. No additional heating is necessary.

Post-curing procedure

It is easier to remove supports before post-curing. However, you can also post-cure a print with supports and remove them later. Depending on the model this can help to obtain better geometries if you have such goal. Post-curing time depends on your curing station, it can vary from 5 minutes to 1 hour (until the surface of your 3D print becomes non-sticky). You should post-cure immediately after cleaning and drying. After proper post-curing surface of TGM-7 printed objects should be completely non-sticky and very hard to scratch.
