 Introduction
https://medium.com/future-today/the-10-types-of-3d-printing-technology-2f07d97882f8

3D printing process builds a three-dimensional

object from a CAD model, usually by adding
material layer by layer. The popularity of 3D
printing create a wave of nation-wide
manufacturing and design trends. Everyone
can turning the idea of ​design into a prototype,
everyone can have a small factory.

https://prototechasia.com/en/stereolithography/photopolymerisation

SLA (stereolithography) is a resin 3D printing

technique also called “writing in relief” which is
based on the principle of photo-polymerisation
of resin. The liquid materials used in SLA are
photosensitive thermoset polymers that
hardenes from a liquid form by the exposure of
a ultraviolet (UV) laser beam.

 Prepare for Printing
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wZhVToWbOOYvWisfJB7dk12SeblLANutIcp-jKCTicw/edit

1. Pour the resin solution, shake the jar

evenly to prevent it from depositing
underneath.
2. Prepare 3D model, export model to G-code
files (using Cura software).
3. Select the appropriate print speed and
layer height.
4. Pay attention to the model structure, and
the supporting material.
5. After finish printing the object, use the
scraper to take out the print.
6. Washing resin off the print with ethanol and
water.
7. Put the object under direct sunlight or UV-
light fixture to hardened the model.

Accuracy and Precision

Accuracy and precision depend on

many different factors: 3D printing
process, materials, software
settings, post-processing, ...

Material • Standard resin

Resin 3D printing is the variety of materials • Clear resin
that make it possible to create parts for
diverse applications. Resins can feature a • Tough resin (ABS-like)
wide range of formulation configurations:
materials can be soft or hard, heavily filled • Durable resin (PP-like)
with secondary materials like glass and
• Rubber-like resin
ceramic, or imbued with mechanical
properties like high heat deflection • Heat-resistant resin
temperature or impact resistance.
• Castable resin

 Further about resin printing
Resolution
In DLP 3D printer: XY resolution is
defined by the pixel size, this depends
on the resolution of the projector, the
most common being full HD (1080p),
and its distance from the optical
window. As a result, most desktop
DLP 3D printers have a fixed XY
resolution, generally between 35 to
100 microns.

In SLA 3D printers: XY resolution is a

combination of the laser’s spot size
and the increments by which the laser
beam can be controlled, the laser can
move in smaller increments and the
printer can consistently deliver parts
with 25 micron.

Further about resin printing
DLP projectors create an image of a layer by
shining light through a lens to a DMD (digital micro
mirror device), which must then direct the light to
the bottom of the resin tank. The light coming from
a DLP projector expand from a small source to
cover a wide area. This means wide models have
an increased chance of having distorted pixels at
their edges.
LCD 3D printers use an array of UV LCDs as a
light source. The light from the flat LCD panels
shines directly, in a parallel fashion, onto the build
area. Because this light isn’t expanded, pixel
distortion is less of an issue with LCD printing.

Compared to SLA: Because the entire layer is flashed at once, instead

of a single point, this technology is able to produce parts faster.
