Final project of Kasper Dienel in course ELEC-L3999: 3D Printing of Open Source Hardware for Science at Aalto University.
26.10.2017 Comment: The plans for the curing box are ready and most of the parts purchased, printed or CADs created, but the whole box is not yet put together. This is because the LED strips ordered on ebay will not arrive until in november or early december.

Project
This page describes how you can build a Curing box for photocrosslinkable resins. Such curing boxes are mainly used for after curing of stereolithography builds. Research Group of Polymer Technology develops biodegradable photo-crosslinkable resins for SLA devices. Therefore, we can use a box like this one to test the crosslinking of our materials. There are many designs on curing boxes on the web, but none of them fit all of our needs. One requirement set by our users was to be able to create a N2 atmosphere within the box.
