SLA 3D Printing Service

Stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing is one of the earliest and most popular additive manufacturing technologies. It uses a laser to cure liquid resin into solid layers, constructing a 3D object with high precision and smooth surface finishes. After printing, the part is removed from the build chamber, cleaned of supports and excess resin (usually with isopropyl alcohol), and then cured in a UV oven to achieve optimal physical properties.

SLA can only be used with photosensitive polymers, but offers high accuracy and relative fine details.
