8. SLA printers
SLA (Stereolithography) is a 3D printing technology that utilizes UV light to solidify polymers and create 3D objects layer by layer.
An SLA printer consists of a reservoir with liquid polymer, which serves as the printing material. This polymer is sensitive to UV light. A laser generates precise beams of light in specific areas of each layer, causing the polymer to solidify and form a thin layer of the object. After the first layer solidifies, the printing surface is submerged again into the polymer reservoir to create the next layer of the object. This process is repeated until the entire object is formed.
