Create high definition, durable prototypes with ease.

Ideal for rapid prototypes with a great return on investment.

Overview

Stereolithography is one of the most advanced and accurate rapid prototyping technologies, which is most ideal for concept modeling, fit-form-function testing and a variety of molding techniques. In an SLA process, the laser is capable of fusing metal, plastic, glass and ceramic particles into a 3D Printed model. Offering a variety of different coloured materials, SLA is an ideal technology for economical and rapid 3D printing.

Why use Stereolithography?

Stereolithography creates high definition and durable prototypes and parts. It is a fast and accurate additive manufacturing technology ideal for rapid production with a positive ROI for every project. Manufacture with extremely precise details with the option for colour-matched painting and texturing services.​
