    Wavelength has a very direct impact on the resolution you can print because it’s an optical system. Under perfect conditions, it’ll be diffraction limited, which is typically anywhere from several hundred nm to tens of microns. That’s an ideal system though, you’re actually going to be getting a dimensional accuracy somewhat above that in practice, probably tens to hundreds of um.

      Please make sure Form Labs, and the rest of the companies I have worked for, are aware of how wrong their engineers are.

      I’m not sure what the obsession is with arguing against the list of objective facts I have provided - each argument peeling away into a deeper and more obvious lack of understanding…

      Please feel free to run anything other than the recommended wavelength of UV light through a photoreactive polymer resin and let me know the dimensions of your resulting print. Remember to do it twice, so you can compare the results - the point of this discussion. Repeatable results, to 1 micron of accuracy.

      (your repeatable result will be a measurement of thin air, as your print will not cure - but feel free to try, as I’ve said.)
