Asiga PRO 4K Low Force Build Tray
The Asiga PRO 4K Low Force Build Tray uses a specialized film that reduces peel forces during layer separation, improving print stability for flexible and delicate geometries. Lower separation forces reduce the risk of deformation or cracking, making it well suited for parts with thin walls and fine details. It’s commonly used in dental, audiology, jewelry, and industrial applications where precision and material flexibility matter.
Which Asiga Build Tray is Right for You?
| Tray Type – Asiga | Description and Construction | Recommended Materials/ Applications | Advantages | Considerations |
| Universal™ | Standard tray with a flexible film in a rigid frame, designed for most Asiga resins. Produces a matte, fine surface finish and is compatible with many models (MAX, Pico, PRO 4K, etc.). | Broad range of tasks: diagnostic models, prototypes, general dental prints. Suitable for hard resins across most medical, dental, and engineering applications. | Affordable and durable; works with many materials; provides a predictable matte finish with little post-processing required. | Does not produce a high-gloss finish; heavy or sticky resins can wear the film faster; for glossy parts use UltraGLOSS. |
| UltraGLOSS™ | Tray with a film that maintains a thin layer of liquid resin using LIFT technology. Allows printing of clear parts with a glossy, pre-polished surface, eliminating manual polishing. | Transparent materials: night guards, occlusal splints, clear ear molds, lenses, visors, and other parts where a glossy finish matters. | Parts come out glossy straight off the printer, reducing polishing by up to 90%; ideal for aesthetic items such as splints, shields, and visors. | Designed for transparent resins; each resin may need testing before production use; more expensive than standard trays; compatible with MAX, MAX X, PRO 4K, and Ultra series only. |
| Low Force™ | Tray with a specialized film that reduces peel forces during layer separation, lowering the risk of deformation or cracking in delicate or flexible parts. | Elastomeric resins: flexible splints, soft gingiva, orthodontic transfer trays, delicate orthodontic hooks, soft hearing-aid shells, microfluidic components, and miniatures. | Lower peel forces improve printing success for thin, flexible, or fragile parts and reduce print failures. | Not suited for hard resins — use Universal or Endurance trays instead; may require adjustments to supports or exposure settings; available for MAX, MAX X, and PRO 4K series only. |
| Endurance™ | Tray with a reinforced film designed for extended use with hard and abrasive resins. Lasts significantly longer than the standard Universal tray under heavy daily production conditions. | Hard resins in high-volume lab environments: crown and bridge models, diagnostic models, surgical guides, and other rigid dental applications. | Longer film lifespan reduces replacement frequency and lowers cost per print over time; ideal for labs running the printer daily with demanding materials. | Higher upfront cost than Universal; not suited for flexible or elastomeric resins — use Low Force for those; available for PRO 4K and Ultra series only. |
| LIFT™ | Tray using Liquid Interface Film Technology that maintains a liquid layer at the curing zone for smoother layer separation during printing. | High-volume production workflows using most standard resins where faster print speeds are the priority. | Reduces print time by up to 50%; extends tray life to approximately 5 liters of resin; compatible with most standard resins. | Speed improvements vary by resin; higher upfront cost; available for MAX series only. |
| UltraGLOSS LIFT™ | Combines UltraGLOSS surface technology with LIFT™ peel-force reduction. Produces glossy clear parts while also benefiting from faster layer separation and extended tray life. | Transparent resins where both a glossy finish and faster production are needed: night guards, splints, and other clear aesthetic applications. | Glossy surface straight off the printer with up to 50% faster print times; tray life extended to approximately 5 liters of resin. | Designed for transparent resins; results with opaque or pigmented materials will vary; higher cost than standard trays; available for MAX series only. |
Key Takeaways
- Universal trays are the most versatile, suited for most hard resin jobs where a matte finish is acceptable.
- UltraGLOSS trays produce clear glossy parts straight off the printer, eliminating polishing for splints, night guards, and other clear applications.
- Low Force trays are for flexible and elastomeric resins where standard trays cause deformation or print failures.
- Endurance trays are built for high-volume labs using hard resins daily, with a longer film lifespan that lowers cost per print over time.
- LIFT trays prioritize speed, cutting print times by up to 50% while extending tray life.
- UltraGLOSS LIFT trays combine the glossy finish of UltraGLOSS with the speed and longevity of LIFT technology.

Asiga
Founded in 2011, Asiga pioneered the first LED-based DLP 3D printer, bringing professional-grade stereolithography to the desktop for the first time. Today, their MAX and PRO 4K platforms are trusted benchmarks in clinical and laboratory settings around the world.
All Asiga printers are designed and manufactured in Sydney, Australia, where their engineering and material science teams work together to develop both hardware and resins in parallel. The result is a tightly integrated system where printer and material performance are optimized for each other from the ground up.
Their dental resin range covers the full scope of lab and clinical applications, including crowns, bridges, splints, surgical guides, and orthodontic models. Every formulation meets the biocompatibility requirements for dental and intraoral use. Asiga maintains offices in Australia, the United States, and Germany to provide direct support to dental professionals across all major markets.
