Meet RayForm at SADA Congress 2026: Put the Production Process on the Table

Three cities. One production vision.

RayForm’s August exhibition series reaches Cape Town from 21 to 23 August at the 2026 SADA Dental & Oral Health Congress and Exhibition. We will meet dental laboratories, distributors, and digital manufacturing partners at Booth 12 in the Cape Town International Convention Centre.

The material sample on the table is the beginning of the discussion. The production process behind it is the real subject.

RayForm will be at Booth 12 with its full dental 3D printing resin range and printed application samples. Visitors can compare sample features, discuss material choice for an existing LCD/DLP printer, review parameter and post-processing needs, and explore bulk purchasing or distribution partnerships.

SADA CONGRESS 2026 · RAYFORM EVENT JOURNAL 03/03 · CAPE TOWN

The South African Dental Association describes the event as an international congress joining a scientific program with an exhibition for the dental and oral health sector ^[1]. SADA’s own congress page confirms the same dates and Cape Town venue ^[2]. The official exhibitor directory includes materials suppliers, digital workflow businesses, equipment providers, and distributors ^[3].

That mix creates a good setting for a production conversation: application requirements on one side, material and process choices on the other.

Printed samples are easy to admire. They are more valuable when they help you ask better questions.

At Booth 12, use the samples to examine the details that matter to your work: model margins, fitting areas, surface quality, thin features, transparency, flexibility, polish, or dimensional consistency. The relevant checks change with the application.

RayForm’s full dental 3D printing resin portfolio covers the following workflow groups ^[4]:

The booth is focused on materials and finished samples. No live printer demonstration is promised.

One of the easiest ways to create trouble in a dental printing workflow is to choose a resin by a general label and ignore the rest of the process.

“Model resin” can refer to different jobs. A working implant model, a thermoforming model exposed to heat and pressure, and a routine orthodontic model do not place the same demands on a material. The same is true for splints, denture bases, surgical guides, and restorative materials.

At the booth, start with the part you are making and work backward:

1. What is the intended application?
2. Which printer and wavelength will be used?
3. What layer height and build layout are typical?
4. How will the part be washed and post-cured?
5. Which dimensions or surface features determine acceptance?
6. How often must the same process run?

This turns material selection into a production decision rather than a color or price comparison.

An open LCD/DLP workflow gives a laboratory flexibility, but it also makes parameter control visible. A resin can be compatible with a printer family while still requiring a setting that matches the exact machine, geometry, and production environment.

RayForm’s printer parameter database provides model-based starting settings and directs users to support when a model is not listed ^[5]. Starting settings are useful. They do not replace verification on the customer’s own printer.

Before a lab raises volume, it should be able to answer:

• Is the printer calibrated and documented?
• Are exposure, lift, and layer settings controlled?
• Is the wash process timed and repeatable?
• Is the post-cure routine matched to the material?
• Are pass/fail checks written down?
• Can another operator reproduce the result?

RayForm’s support center provides TDS files for the dental resin range ^[6]. Those documents, the printer profile, and the lab’s own verification record should work together.

A useful technical meeting starts with a real workflow. Bring:

• the printer brand and exact model;
• the resin application you run now;
• photos of a recurring defect or inconsistent result;
• current washing and post-curing steps;
• typical layer height and batch size;
• expected monthly material use;
• the change you are considering and why.

If the issue appears only on one machine or shift, say so. That detail often matters more than a long description of the defect.

Southern African markets contain different customer types, installed printer fleets, purchasing patterns, and support expectations. A distribution discussion should begin with that reality.

At Booth 12, prospective partners can discuss:

• which resin applications fit their current dental customer base;
• how to present a broad portfolio without confusing buyers;
• the sample set and technical documents needed for sales support;
• printer coverage and parameter-request handling;
• bulk purchasing and supply planning;
• technical onboarding for the distributor’s team;
• the next steps for evaluating a working partnership.

RayForm’s production-first approach links material supply with parameter guidance, process documents, and channel support ^[7]. We are interested in partners who want to build that capability, not simply add another product name to a price list.

Most vendors sell you a machine. We build the production system behind it.

At SADA Congress 2026, we are putting the material, the printed sample, and the process questions on the same table.
