Fundamentals of SLA/DLP 3D Printing: Understanding how the optical components (such as light source, Digital Micromirror Array, illumination and imaging optics), file processing software (tessellation techniques, support addition methods, anti-aliasing) and printing approach (such as physics of adhesion in bottom-up printing, CLIP technology and top-down printing) affect production speed and part quality. Differentiating between factors affecting true performance versus brochure myths and obscure technical data and how to make the right machine purchase decision for a given application. How SLA/ DLP technology is being used for end-use parts production (for precision industries such as dental, hearing aid and jewelry) will be covered.
