As 3D printing enthusiast Chris Russell shows in this picture, you can even make parts for other 3D printers using the Siraya Tech tough resin, and they will look beautiful and be strong as heck.

As widespread as 3D printing with stereolithography (SLA) is in the consumer market, these additive manufacturing (AM) machines are limited to a single UV light source and the polymerization of fre… ...

SLA printers simply apply this process to 3D printing. They print layer by layer as well, but instead of extruding material, they zap a tank full of resin liquid.

Many resin-based 3D printers cost around $2,000 or more, but the Photon Mono X 3D printer delivers quality prints for $599. It’s an inexpensive way to try SLA 3D printing.

The Da Vinci Junior 3D Printer. Dong Ngo/CNET The Nobel 1.0 sports a resin-filling mechanism, meaning it can provide stable SLA printing quality without users having to add liquid resin constantly ...

Theoretically, these SLA printers are supposed to be much faster than their filament-melting brethren, since all they need to do to create a layer is flash a laser over the resin tray.

Similarly, faster throughput of SLA parts will permit the lab to support larger undergraduate courses which seek to offer 3D printing as part of a curriculum – classes with enrollment above ...
