Automation
Parts finish themselves.
Printing, washing, and curing run in sequence without manual intervention.
Finished parts.One machine.One touch.
RIPP
Resin with Integrated Post-Processing
A compact, all-in-one system that prints, washes, and cures automatically. Filtered, enclosed, and designed for a cleaner workflow.
The problem
Resin printing doesn’t end at the print.
Getting the part is easy. Everything after is not.
Multiple machines, open solvent, and manual transfers turn a precise process into a messy one.
The solution
A fully integrated resin system.
Print. Wash. Cure. Done.
RIPP completes the entire process inside a sealed enclosure—reducing handling, exposure, and setup.
Features
Everything after printing, built in.
Footprint
Replace your entire setup.
One system instead of separate printers, wash stations, and curing units.
Handling
Touch less, do more.
Interact with finished parts—not resin vats or solvent containers.
Air quality
Designed for indoor use.
An enclosed system with filtration helps manage fumes during operation.
Fluid system
Smarter solvent use.
Optional recycling extends wash fluid life and reduces waste.
Scaling
Grow without the mess.
Add more units to increase output without adding complexity.
Scaling
From a single unit to a production setup.
More machines, same process.
Each unit operates independently, so output scales linearly without shared stations or added workflow steps.
Parallel operation
No shared post-processing
Consistent output per unit
Compact layout
A row of compact, self-contained production units with no extra stations between them.
Comparison
Most systems stop at the print.
Resin workflows today are split across machines and manual steps. RIPP brings everything into one system.
Manual resin workflow
Flexible, but inconsistent
- Open resin handling
- Manual washing and curing
- High cleanup effort
- Hard to repeat
Printer + wash/cure
Improved, still fragmented
- Multiple devices
- Manual transfer steps
- Solvent exposure
- Extra workspace required
Industrial systems
Automated, but oversized
- Large footprint
- High cost
- Facility requirements
- Designed for factories
RIPP
Automation in one system
- Print, wash, cure in one cycle
- Minimal interaction
- Enclosed process
- Desktop footprint
Less setup. Less handling. More usable parts.
Prototype proof
Designed, built, and tested.
RIPP is a working prototype developed by Purdue mechanical engineering students.
The system integrates motion, fluid handling, and curing into a single coordinated process.
Ongoing work is focused on reliability, manufacturability, and launch readiness.
