3D Printer Evaluation

For prototyping evaluated available 3D printer in Nov 2014. We are mainly looking into SLA/SLS type printers. I will immediately grab your rss feed as I can not find your email subscription link or enewsletter service. Do you have any? Kindly let me know so that I could subscribe. Thanks. ekefdkadedkbbbgd

2 Background

Most printers operate on the same principle. The Image is projected on the base of a transparent receptacle where the hardened resin tends to stick on. So the surface is coated with transparent silicone.

B9 creator moves the reservoir left and right

Atum3d pulls the build platform out on the Z-axis of the resin bath and puts it back in.

mUVe 1 has a "Dual-Motor Tilting Peel System" which tilts the build platform

Titan 1 has a patented "Flexible resin container" which bends when the z-axis is rising

For electronics the Arduino based RAMPS boards from Reprap project is very common using a modified Marlin firmware.

As 3D Printing software Creation Workshop from envisionlabs is often used.
