Stereolithography

SLA

SLA is one of the most widely-used rapid prototyping technologies for plastic models that require great-looking models with impeccable surface quality. It can produce very large parts (up to 1.5m in one piece)

Stereolithography is widely recognized as the first 3D printing process. It is an industrial 3D printing process used to create complex models, concepts and prototypes with excellent surface finish and accuracy.

The SLA process’ high accuracy, a large variety of material selections, smooth surface finish, and a wide variety of post-processing options making it the perfect choice for a wide range of rapid manufacturing applications.
It’s a laser-based process that works with photopolymer resins that react with the laser and cure to form a solid in a very precise way.
SLA parts can fulfill application needs for transparency, high-temperature, high stiffness or other qualities and functions.
We at “Aarya Industries” believe in exploiting the best of SLA technology, so we possess the state of art that gives you high-quality parts with excellent properties, quickly.

Advantages of "Stereolithography"

SLA is one of the most precise 3D printing techniques on the market.
Prototypes can be created with extremely high quality, with finely detailed features (thin walls, sharp corners, etc…) and complex geometrical shapes. Layer thicknesses can be made as low as 25 μm, with minimum feature sizes between 50 and 250 μm.
SLA provides the tightest dimensional tolerances of any rapid prototyping or additive manufacturing technology: +/- 0.005″ (0.127 mm) for the first inch, and an additional 0.002″ for each additional inch.
Print surfaces are smooth.
Build volumes can be as high as 50 x 50 x 60 cm³ without sacrificing precision.

FAQ's on "Stereolithography"

How does Stereolithography works ?

Stereolithography is an additive manufacturing process that, in its most common form, works by focusing an ultraviolet (UV) laser on to a vat of photopolymer resin. Photopolymers are sensitive to ultraviolet light, so the resin is photochemically solidified and forms a single layer of the desired 3D object.

What materials can be used in Stereolithography ?

Material Versatility

SLA resins have the benefit of a wide range of formulation configurations: materials can be soft or hard, heavily filled with secondary materials like glass and ceramic, or imbued with mechanical properties like high heat deflection temperature or impact resistance.

Which liquid is used in Stereolithography ?

Stereolithography (or SLA) is one of the oldest 3D printing techniques ever developed. This additive manufacturing process is used to 3D print resin material, using a photochemical process. This SLA 3D printing process uses a vat of liquid photopolymers resin that can be cured.

What are the advantages of Stereolithography ?

Stereolithography provides advantages in speed, cost-effectiveness, flexibility, and precision. These advantages make stereolithography for medical device design, among many other industries, a vital process for creating models and prototypes that help refine and prove designs.

What are the disadvantages of Stereolithography ?

Fragility: stereolithography uses equivalent materials which are resins. The parts thus obtained are more fragile than the final parts. If the quality of the finish allows functional prototypes to be obtained, stereolithography does not, however, allow parts that can be used for mechanical testing to be obtained.

Why is Stereolithography is used ?

Stereolithography is good for producing accurate prototypes and models. Stereolithography is well used for creating accurate 3D models of anatomical regions of a patient, used to aid in diagnosis and for pre-planning and implant design and manufacture. It is also good for use in concept models and scale models.

What is the strength of SLA process ?

Parts printed in tough resin have tensile strength (55.7 MPa) and modulus of elasticity (2.7 GPa) comparable to ABS. This material will produce sturdy, shatter-resistant parts and functional prototypes, such as enclosure with snap-fit joints, or rugged prototypes.

The tooling consists of a master part and a mould. The economies of scale generally reach their maximum from 100 to 200 prototypes. Beyond this quantity, it is recommended to design an injection mould from aluminium or steel.
