Overview
Pro Wash/Dry is SprintRay’s first fully automated cleaning system designed to streamline post-processing for dental 3D printing. It performs a two-stage wash followed by a dry cycle, delivering clean, dry parts in approximately ten minutes. The system uses mechanical jetting to remove uncured resin without requiring full submersion in IPA.
The Pro Wash/Dry minimizes manual handling of solvent, reduces waste, and provides a consistent, and a repeatable workflow.

Key Components
Wash Chamber
The central wash chamber supports both platform washing and basket washing. Mechanical jetting circulates IPA around printed parts for efficient cleaning.
Dual IPA Reservoirs
Pro Wash/Dry uses two solvent chambers:
- Chamber 1 for the primary wash
- Chamber 2 for a second rinse
Automatic pumps move IPA between chambers during each stage.
Mechanical Jetting System
A high-speed motor spins a precision propeller to agitate IPA at over 10,000 RPM, enabling fast, effective cleaning with as little as 500 mL of solvent.
Touchscreen Interface
A built-in touchscreen allows users to start cycles, create custom wash cycles, and update software.
Hydrometers
Each reservoir contains a precalibrated hydrometer:
- Sink = IPA is clean
- Float = IPA is saturated and needs replacement
Quick-Connect Drain Port
A dedicated quick-connect hose provides a clean, controlled way to drain and recycle IPA.
How Pro Wash/Dry Works
1. Load Parts
Users can wash directly on the build platform, or place loose parts in the included basket.
The unit automatically detects which method is being used.
2. First Wash
Mechanical jetting circulates IPA from Chamber 1 across the printed surfaces to remove a bulk of the resin.
3. Second Wash
The system automatically transfers IPA from Chamber 2 for a cleaner second wash to help ensure the print is clean.
4. Automated Drying
After washing, air circulates through the chamber to dry parts completely before post-curing.
Supported Wash Methods
Platform Wash
The build platform is placed directly in the cradle.
Basket Wash
Recommended for:
- Tall models
- Hollow or shell models
- Multiple loose parts
