Printing in SLA (Stereolithography)
SLA is an additive manufacturing process that works by focusing a UV laser on a vat of photopolymer resin.
With the help of computer-aided manufacturing or computer-aided design (CAM/CAD) software, the UV laser is used to draw a pre-programmed design or shape onto the surface of the photopolymer vat. Photopolymers are sensitive to ultraviolet light, so the resin is photochemically solidified and forms a single layer of the desired 3D object.
This process is repeated for each layer of the design until the 3D object is complete.
