The Concept 3D Athena II Pro 385 nm is a high‑precision MSLA printer engineered for professional users who require exceptional accuracy, smooth surface quality, and reliable curing performance with 385 nm‑optimized photopolymer materials. Unlike standard 405 nm consumer printers, the Athena II Pro uses a 385 nm UV light engine, enabling superior polymerization of specialist resins—particularly those designed for dental, jewelry, and industrial applications. This wavelength offers cleaner curing, and sharper details, making the printer an excellent platform for a wide range of Concept 3D Athena II Pro 385nm resins and 3rd party formulations.
Equipped with a high‑resolution monochrome LCD, a reinforced Z‑axis assembly, and a uniform optical system, the Athena II Pro delivers consistent layer exposure across the entire build plate. Its open‑material philosophy allows users to work with various third‑party engineering resins, including most Liqcreate resins. Some materials have been successfully validated on this machine. Thanks to the powerful 385 nm LED array and efficient light distribution, many other Liqcreate resins can also be used with stable curing behavior, even when no predefined profile is available.
With its combination of wavelength‑specific performance, industrial‑grade mechanics, and broad resin compatibility, the Concept 3D Athena II Pro 385 nm stands out as a versatile platform for professionals who demand accuracy and repeatability. If you need guidance on exposure parameters or selecting the right Concept 3D Athena II Pro 385nm resin for your application, support is available to help you achieve optimal results with liqcreate resins.
