3D model description

At the moment is more an experiment than something practical even though that is the aim: an apparatus for closed cycle re-use of the water in the resin print washing process.

The idea is to UV-light and decant the resin saturated water and then to filter it for using it in a new resin wash cycle without hassle.

I print about three times a week and in the last three month I used the same water for the washing of the prints, switching the saturated water with the one refreshed by the Uv-light, decant and filter process made by the apparatus. And It works!

Right now I'm evaluating to change how the apparatus work because, at the moment, you need a third tank in wich pour the regenerated water and only then refill the uv-tank with the saturated one. I think also there's the need for the water to be cycled trought the filter while UV-passed.
In theese cases I would like also to have a better interface if there's the need for some relay/arduino/normally closed electrovalve.

I have also to resolve the emulsion made by the Dyaphragm pump maybe using it only for self-priming the apparatus or exploit it for a further separation of the water/resin solution.

The list stuff used in this project (at least the big stuff):
