Stereolithography(SLA)

Stereolithography (SLA) is one of the widely used industrial additive printing processes used to create conceptual models, cosmetic prototypes, and parts with complex geometries quickly. A large variety of materials with quality surface finish and resolution is possible with SLA.

How Does SLA 3D Printing Work?

SLA is an additive manufacturing process that uses a thermoset material called resin and prints the part layer by layer fashion using a photochemical process. SLA uses UV lasers as a light source to print the resin. A laser beam is focused to scan the whole cross-section of the design to apply the next layer of resin. The printing continues layer by layer until the part is complete.

Newly built parts are taken out of the machine and any additional resins are removed in the lab. Now the parts are completely clean and the support structures are manually removed. Because these parts are not fully solid, they require further post-processing under UV light to fully solidify the outer surface of the part. Finally, the part is finished as per the specification or customer requirement. Parts built-in SLA should be used with minimal UV and humidity exposure for better durability.
