Resin printing splits into two jobs. The printer handles the first one alone, layer by layer, behind a closed lid.
The second job lands on you: a build plate dripping with uncured resin, a tub of alcohol, gloves, paper towels, and a smell that takes over the room. UniFormation built the S10 to take the second job away. The desktop machine prints a model, drains the plate, washes the part twice, and dries it with warm air, all inside one enclosure. You send a file in and lift out a clean, dry print.

What happens after the last layer
Once the final layer cures, the build platform rotates 180 degrees and holds for a minute, letting excess resin run back into the vat.
It tilts to 90 degrees for two more minutes of draining, then returns to position while a cleaning cover slides over the vat.
The platform then moves sideways into the wash area and runs two wash cycles in the 9-liter tank, dipping the model and sweeping it through the fluid. Between cycles the machine tilts on three axes to drain, and after the second wash the plate rotates 270 degrees to face the drying port.
The print side runs on a 16K screen
Printing runs on a 10.1-inch mono LCD at 15,360 by 6,540 pixels, with a pixel size of 14.52 by 19.25 microns and a 405 nm light source. The build volume measures 223.03 by 125.9 by 200 mm, sized for miniatures, figures, jewelry and dental models.
The Z axis rides a C5 ball screw rated at plus or minus 0.005 mm repeatability, and the machine ships leveled from the factory.
Pressure sensors watch for foreign objects down to 1 mm, resin feeds itself from the reservoir, and a built-in heater warms cold resin before the first layer.
A built-in 2MP camera watches the print in progress. Jobs reach the machine from UniFormation Studio, CHITUBOX or Lychee, and the house slicer ships with presets for five resin families, adds supports on its own, and sends the file over the network.

Washing and drying stay inside the box
Two wash cycles handle most standard prints, and the fluid drains back into the tank through a channel in the wash lid, so it stays out of the resin vat.
UniFormation suggests fresh fluid every 20 to 30 cycles in standalone mode, and the run stays quiet at 60 dB or less.
Drying uses PTC ceramic heating at 35 to 45 degrees, with no exposed heating elements. Activated carbon filters inside and outside the enclosure handle the odor, an automated run caps the model at 550 ml of resin volume, and that cap rises to 800 ml in Fluid Hub mode. Print-only mode skips the automation and lifts the cap.
Curing is the step it skips
The automation stops at dry.
Supports come off by hand, and curing happens outside the sequence unless you add UniFormation’s foldable Curing Module, a $30 add-on that plugs into the machine and runs from the same touchscreen.
Hollow models need drain holes designed in, plus a quick manual rinse, since trapped fluid has no way out on its own. Three modes cover the range: print-only, the full automated workflow, and a third mode with the Fluid Hub connected.
One hub can wash for three printers
The S10 Fluid Hub is a shared wash station that connects up to three S10 printers and washes for two at a time. It splits the work across two tanks, a rough wash in older fluid and a fine rinse in fresh fluid, so each batch of fluid lasts longer.
UniFormation sells the hub as a $410 add-on aimed at studios and print farms. The printers themselves stay modular, with separate print, wash and dry modules, so a wash fault doesn’t have to stop the printing side.
Price, tiers and the shipping calendar
Three tiers run on Kickstarter.
| Tier | Pledge | What it adds |
|---|---|---|
| Single Unit | $999 | Printer, toolkit and spare films (retail $1,299) |
| Starter Bundle | $1,099 | Adds the curing module, a painting tool kit and 2 kg of resin |
| Best Value Pack | $1,399 | Adds the Fluid Hub and the resin |
The campaign passed its goal on launch day and sits at 1,260% funded with 442 backers, and it runs to December 1, 20 days out from today. A VIP route runs through the maker’s store: a refundable $20 deposit brings the pledge price to $899, with $100 cash back after the campaign ends.
Shipping starts in March 2027 and runs into April, in backer number order. UniFormation covers customs duties and import tax, with VAT and GST included for the EU, US, Canada, the UK and Australia, and US shipping adds $80.
The warranty runs one year, with the LCD covered for 180 days.
This is UniFormation’s first Kickstarter. The company has sold three generations of resin printers through its own store since the GK1 in 2021, a different risk profile from a first-time hardware team.
UniFormation S10 Best Value Pack
Adds the S10 Fluid Hub and 2 kg of resin; the hub washes for up to three S10 printers on a two-stage rough wash and fine rinse
Price: $1,399
Where to buy: Back it on Kickstarter
The S10 lands with miniature painters and small studios first, the people who lose the most time to tubs and gloves. Pledges placed this month ship next spring.
That wait is the trade, and the curing step still waits at the end of the line.
