Produce superb levels of smoothness, rigidity, and optical transparency – High resolution 3D printing at lower start-up costs than injection moulding
Stereolithography (SLA) printing was introduced in the mid-1980s by Charles Hull. Initially focused on rapid prototyping, SLA printing rapidly evolved to encompass a wider range of applications, including functional prototypes, intricate models, and even some end-use parts.
SLA printing operates by solidifying liquid photopolymer resin layer by layer using UV light. After completion, the object is rinsed to eliminate excess resin and cured, often involving additional UV exposure, for enhancing the object’s final properties.
SLA’s precision and ability to create intricate, smooth-surfaced objects make it valuable for applications like rapid prototyping, dental models, and artistic designs.
