What is SLA 3D Printing?
SLA (Stereolithography) is a high-precision 3D printing technology that uses UV-cured resin to create extremely detailed models with a smooth surface.
The technology works by using a UV laser or LCD screen to cure liquid resin layer by layer, resulting in fine detail, high resolution, and minimal post-processing. SLA is ideal for miniatures, technical prototypes, jewelry, medical models, and other advanced applications.
Maker Factory offers professional SLA 3D printing, perfect for visual models, precision parts, and functional prototypes where high levels of detail and a smooth finish are essential.

FAQ — Ofte stillede spørgsmål
What is SLA 3D printing?
SLA (Stereolithography) bruger UV-lys to at haerde harpiks lag for lag. Det giver very finere details end FDM and naesten glatte overflader without post-finishing.
Hvilke SLA-resiner har I?
Vi tilbyder Tough Resin, Engineering Resin, Flex Resin, High Temperature Resin, Miniature Resin, Ceramic Resin, PA-Like Resin og Transparent Resin.
Er SLA-print staerkere end FDM?
Det afhaenger of material. Engineering Resin and High Temperature Resin is very staerke and taaler hoeje temperaturer (140–200°C), mens nogle FDM-materials as PA6-CF also is ekstrem staerke.
Hvor fin detail faar jeg with SLA?
SLA-print has typisk 25–50 mikron lag-tykkelse, hvilket giver very finer details end FDM. Ideelt to praecisions-parts and miniatur-modeller.
Skal SLA-print efterbehandles?
Ja, SLA-print must vaskes in isopropanol and UV-haerdes fuldt ud efter printing. Overfladen can derefter slibes hvis oensket.
