Any resin can be used in any printer?

What is the difference between photopolymer resins? Any resin can be used in any printer? I saw now Siraya Tech is being praised, who has already printed it?

What is the difference between photopolymer resins? Any resin can be used in any printer?

The differences can be:
1. In the polymer used
2. In viscosity
3. In the speed of curing
4. In the light from which the curing occurs.
Typically, 3D printers use a resin that hardens with light with a wavelength of 405nm (near ultraviolet / violet), so in theory they should fit everyone.
But you need to select the settings: Layer thickness, exposure, etc.
Has anyone already printed it?

Try looking for reviews or reviews on youtube or https://3dtoday.ru

Not really.
There are differences in technology, such as light requirements. Visible light printers require their own resin, and UV resin will not work.
Resins also have their own limits in terms of spot size and layer height, you cannot print a high-precision product with a resin that is not intended for this, more precisely, the result will be smeared (light can overexpose the upper layers, excess material will accumulate).
Also, each plastic has its own profile (LED power and illumination duration, layer height) can clearly be chosen experimentally, but in which case you risk getting a caked poop in the bath, damaging it (yes, this is a consumable, but still not cheap)
