Equipment - FormLabs Form 2 for Stereolithography

 

The FormLabs Form 2 (SLA) is used for photopolymeric layer manufacturing of Epoxy-based resin materials. It is used to support teaching, fundamental research and application projects.

The resin is cured by solidifying successive layers with diode laser with a wavelength of 405nm. The beam produces 250mW of power at the point of convergence with the resin vat.
