2. No, the resin is like glue. Once the light polymerizes the resin anything the resin is touching sticks to it extremely well. Consequently, a nonstick surface is needed when doing bottom up SLA. One thing that can be done is to float the resin on another heaver liquid, this has been done before and lets one do top down SLA without having to use a lot of resin to fill up a deep vat.
3. Hmmm. . . You would need to make the whole printer move as the build took place or you would need to make the part as it was being built move away from the printer as it was being built. So, you would need something like a bottom up method with a nonstick transparent conveyor belt that you would coat with a thin layer of resin for each layer cycle. In the making the printer move as the part was built would need to print a scaffold that the printer would reside on and the scaffold would continue to be built along with the part being printed.Statistics: Posted by James — Fri Mar 02, 2018 3:55 pm
