What is BMF Projection Micro Stereolithography (PµSL) 3D Printing?

Projection Micro Stereolithography (PµSL) is a type of 3D printing technology that uses a UV light projector to cure a liquid photopolymer resin into a solid object. The resin is added to a tray, and the UV light projects the desired shape onto the resin. The light cures the resin and solidifies it, layer by layer. The process continues until the entire object has been built. PµSL is known for producing high-quality parts with a high level of detail and accuracy.

Medical micro 3D printing and electronics micro 3D printing can be used to manufacture a number of products, such as delicately bespoke surgical stents or microfluidic channels for labs-on-a-chip devices. It can print at 10µm layers to achieve a surface polish of up to 0.4µm Ra on top surfaces and 1.5µm on sidewalls with a diverse material range, including metals, plastics, and ceramics. Users can tailor the material to their application.

 

Our micro (PµSL) 3D printing Services

Introducing the BMF microArch® series: two printers that are reshaping the landscape of precision 3D printing. The 10-micron series printer offers unrivalled detail for industrial-grade prototyping, while the 2-micron series sets a new standard for microfluidics micro 3D printing services and manufacturing the tiniest and most intricate components.

 

At IPFL, we harness the capabilities of these printers to turn the most complex designs into reality, opening up a world of possibilities for innovation and design excellence. This is also made possible via our CNC routing and diffusion bonding capabilities.
