    Photocentric works with carefully chosen suppliers and specify components to meet our exacting requirements to ensure that the LC Magna delivers reliable and repeatable performance every time. Every element of the design and manufacture is undertaken by us - the Photocentric LC Magna is built to last.

    The versatility of the new daylight LC Magna supercharges product design enabling you to move from prototyping to production volumes in hours. Daylight is far better for screen life, lower in energy usage and safer for the screen, but it also makes printing more reliable, delivering a more even cure than higher intensity UV with its greater depth of penetration. It is much more effective to use daylight with dark coloured or particle rich formulations as the longer wavelength travels further.

    The LC Magna 3D Printer is your perfect partner to consistently deliver accurate end-use parts at scale. Simple to control and supplied with Photocentric’s intuitive STUDIO software, the LC Magna is suitable for a wide variety of applications. The innovative Photocentric Additive software suite, which delivers almost limitless textures and surface finishes, is available separately as a licence-based package.
