    SLA vs DLP

    SLA vs DLP

    One of the most popular 3D printing topics are the debate between SLA vs DLP 3D printers. Both use resins to form the objects and light to solidify the resin’s layers. The big difference between the two are the type of lights the 3D printers use.

    SLA vs FDM

    SLA vs FDM

    SLA vs FDM One of the most popular 3D printing topics are debating between SLA vs FDM. Hobbyists most commonly use FDM printers out of affordability, while CNC machinists use SLA out of quality and efficiency. To back it up, the 3D printer is a tool that creates rapid...

    DLP 3D Printing Applications

    DLP 3D Printing Applications

    Unlike SLA, DLP only requires a shallow vat of resin to facilitate its process. Thus, it results in less waste on its materials. It also lowers its running costs. DLP also prints 3D parts significantly fast. This is because it allows for curing the whole surface of a layer all at once. With all of these aspects, DLP 3D printer applications are very popular in different industries.

    DLP 3D Printer Guide

    A DLP 3D Printer is a tool that creates rapid prototypes through photopolymer resin. 3D Printing is an additive manufacturing process, which is the complete opposite of a subtractive process. While subtractive manufacturing processes like laser cutting and metal bending take away from metal to create parts, additive manufacturing builds parts from a 2D model. Unlike Stereolithography (SLA) printing, which uses a laser to create 3D objects,  DLP uses a light projector instead.
