When detail and surface finish matter, Stereolithography (SLA) delivers. Using a laser to cure liquid resin layer by layer, SLA produces parts with exceptionally smooth surfaces and fine features that FDM can’t match — ideal for presentation models, master patterns and intricate prototypes.
When to choose SLA
- High-detail visual and presentation models
- Master patterns for moulding and casting
- Intricate geometries and fine features
- Smooth, paint-ready surfaces straight off the printer
Resin options
We select from standard, tough, flexible and high-detail resins to match your part’s function and finish requirements.
Finishing
SLA parts take paint beautifully. Combined with our in-house paint and chrome facility, we deliver flawless, presentation-ready pieces.
