Home Additive Manufacturing SLA
SLA is a type of photopolymerization capable of producing parts with an excellent surface finish and small feature resolution. While SLA is not typically suitable for high-performance applications, its intricate and accurate detailing make it a popular option for prototypes. Our factory houses Formlabs Form 3 SLA printers.
Build volume | • 145 x 145 x 185 mm |
Min. feature size | • The minimum feature size is different for each resin, but we are able to achieve complex and aggressive geometry. |
Lead time | • Get your prototypes in as little as seven days. Production or high volume runs will be examined on a case by case basis. |
