Asiga MAX LIFT Build Tray (Asiga Max 2 / Asiga Max UV)

Print up to twice as fast. Trays that last 3-5x longer.

LIFT (Liquid Interface Film Technology) keeps a thin layer of liquid resin between the cured layer and the tray film. The part never bonds to the film, so separation is nearly effortless. Less peel force per layer means faster cycle times, less part stress, and a tray that lasts far longer than standard.

How it works

Standard Teflon film trays cure the resin all the way to the film. LIFT uses a different fluoropolymer that maintains a liquid barrier. The cured layer floats on liquid instead of bonding to film. Less adhesion = the printer can use 1-2mm separation instead of the default 10mm = faster layer cycles.

Best applications

Splints: Biggest ROI. Complex geometry, flexible green state, surface finish matters. No supports needed on interior undercuts.
Denture bases: Large overhangs, patient-facing surface quality.
Surgical guides: Dimensional accuracy on thin walls.
Models: Speed improvement, less dramatic quality difference.

Cost per liter: LIFT wins

Standard tray ~$150-200, lasts 1-2L ($75-200/liter). LIFT tray $295, lasts up to 5L (~$59/liter). Pays for itself within the first tray.
