Stereolithography (SLA)
Stereolithography (SLA) is the oldest additive technology and has been used for over 30 years. This does not make the technology outdated, but the most mature and reliable technology in rapid prototyping. Stereolithography generates superior surfaces and high-accuracy models. The main application of the technology are precise, high-quality plastic prototypes. 3d printing service in
The basic principle of Stereolithography is the selective curing of a photopolymer (a resin) using a UV laser. A thin layer of liquid resin (generally 50-100 microns deep) is prepared in the machine’s building space. The Laser draws a pattern on that layer curing only the shape desired in the first layer of the model. When a layer is completed, a new layer of liquid resin is created will follow (by moving the part up or the bottom of the building space down) and the process continues.
APPLICATIONS
rapid Prototypes
No additive technology has been in the market as long as Stereolithography. Still, when it comes to high quality, high accuracy prototyping parts, Stereolithography sets the standard.
3d Molding
Stereolithography is the major technology to create prototypes for molding processes like vacuum casting or investment casting. The large choice of materials allows to use dimensionally stable, high-resolution materials (e.g. our SLA Detail Resin) for vacuum casting or high-resolution castable resin in investment casting.
Visual Prototypes
Stereolithography is used to create high-quality visual prototypes. This includes technical (e.g. cases, mechanic parts) parts, as well as design studies (e.g. elements in 3d printing in architectural models, design models for new car models).
