Hi,

does anyone have a experience with using CW1 + formlabs resin?

No, but FormLabs says the FormCure uses 405nm UV so I would expect that the CW1 should be up to the task.

Is there a possibility to set curing time longer then 10 min?

According to the firmware, 60 minutes is the max drying time: https://github.com/prusa3d/Prusa-CW-Firmware/blob/master/src/defines.h#L47

Drying and washing are limited to 10 minutes. I have a PR in to increase the max drying time, but Prusa has been studiously ignoring it since November...

Thank you Gnat. That is really interesting.

But the mashine allows me just 10 minutes. What can I do?

@am

Are you using the latest firmware? I just checked mine and it let me set it to 60 minutes for the cure time:

I am running a custom firmware, but the only change is to the max drying time.
