Perfactory

The Perfactory is a DLP 3D printer from EnvisionTEC (Desktop Health) with a 160 x 100 x 180 mm build volume.

Specifications

The EnvisionTEC (now ETEC / Desktop Health) Perfactory series consists of Digital Light Processing (DLP) resin 3D printers rather than FDM/FFF machines . Because of this, several technical specifications differ from extrusion-based printers.

Here is the verification of the requested specifications based on the sources:

• Hotend & Nozzles: Not applicable. The Perfactory line uses vat photopolymerization (liquid resin) cured by a DLP projector with a Digital Micromirror Device (DMD), rather than melting plastic through a hotend and nozzle [1, 5-7].
• Build Volume: Volumes vary heavily depending on the specific Perfactory model and projector optics :.

Calibration

The EnvisionTEC (Desktop Health) Perfactory is a series of professional Digital Light Processing (DLP) resin 3D printers, not Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) filament printers [1, 2]. Because it uses a UV projector to cure liquid resin rather than melting plastic through a nozzle, FDM-specific calibrations like E-steps, Flow Rate, PID tuning, Retraction, and Pressure Advance do not apply to this machine [2, 3].
