What is SLA printing?

The high resolution Formlabs SLA 3D printers are able to produce highly detailed, high quality prints that are said to be much higher than that of plastic extrusion printers.

SLA, short for stereolithography, is the process where liquid resin is cured, or transformed, into a solid material by the application of laser light. SLA desktop printers are emerging as a great alternative to FDM thanks to companies like Formlabs who have been driving the technology forward, offering a greater range of resins at lower costs. Formlabs SLA desktop 3D printers are easy-to-use and affordable.
