Tension System

The resin-tray membrane must remain taut throughout the printing process. The NextDent 5100 achieves this with a tension arm that lowers down over the resin tray, as well as with two tension clips. This system also locks the resin tray in place during printing.

A Tension Arm - pushes down the tension clamps and locks resin tray into place B Tension Clamps - spring-loaded mechanisms that tension the resin tray when engaged C Vanity Plates - these plates cover the printer chassis around the tension clamps D Tension-Arm Release Lever - Push this button in to release the tension arm and disengage the tension clamps.
