Frequently Asked Questions

What is DLP and SLA?

The primary difference between DLP and SLA is the light source; SLA uses a UV laser beam while the DLP uses UV light from a projector. … Since the curing (hardening) of the resin is done from point to point, SLA 3D printing is more accurate and the quality of the print is also better in comparison to DLP 3D printing.

PARTS

Parts Parts available on the website are for anyone to purchase.

We are in the process of creating a parts department in New South Wales with a collection of parts that are not for sale.

Parts department parts are just for helping customers that have bought printers from us resolve their warranty issues in a timely manner.
