Stereolithography - SLA
 
Let our SLA system trim time and expense from every stage of your production cycle by creating multiple design iterations in a fraction of the time. Test parts for form, fit and function - even in working prototypes. Eliminate downstream costs by identifying and correcting flaws early in the design process, before proceeding to tooling and manufacturing.

Stereolithography Apparatus (SLA) provides highly versatile, part, prototype and master pattern production from your CAD data. New specialty and general purpose resins available for the SLA now offer ever expanding opportunities to evaluate design performance in stressful physical testing of prototypes. Test prototypes for stress analysis, for wind-tunnel testing, and in high heat applications.
