Rick Patino, President Rick has over 11 years of experience providing manufacturers professional solutions in SLA, SLS and Cast Urethanes
.STL file format has become the Rapid Prototyping industry's standard data transmission format is required to interact with stereolithography machines
seldom a factor in prototypes being made in a matter of days
Stereolithography is fast, allowing prototypes to be made in a matter of days, and the complexity of the model is
Almost all of today's CAD systems are capable of producing an STL file
steps for producing high quality STL files from a number of today's leading CAD systems.
For the user the process is often as simple as selecting File, Save As, STL.
Fred Draper, Vice President Fred 30 years of experience in the Plastics Industry and 5 years in Rapid Prototyping Industry
stereolithography machine uses a computer controled laser to cure a photo-sensitive resin, layer by layer, to create the 3D part
Export your STL file as a Binary file this saves on time and file size.
Producing a pre-production SLA prototype of a part can greatly enhance the geometric visualization of a product
Stereolithography (SLA) is a "rapid-prototyping" process which produces a physical, three dimensional object from a 3D CAD file
