Rapid Prototyping with 3D Printers<\/h2>\n

Stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing can be a powerful tool when working on early-stage product design. Being able to iteratively prototype the high-risk elements of a product allows for the development of a more robust design overall, while minimizing the time to market. But, as with any tool, we need to understand the limits of its capabilities to get the best use out of it.<\/p>\n

At Springboard, we recently worked on a device requiring small complex geometries which also needed to be resistant to high temperatures. SLA printing was an invaluable asset in the feasibility testing stages as it allowed us to test a wide range of different ideas in a short space of time. We were also able to use a special high temperature resin for parts of our design, although this came with its own set of challenges.<\/p>\n

What are the benefits of SLA printing?<\/h3>\n

SLA printers are favored across many sectors, from jewelry making, to dental prosthetics, to prototyping, and the advantages are well documented:<\/p>\n
