‘Stereolithography’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Open Design Alliance updates ODA platform from Open Design Alliance, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Open Design Alliance (ODA) has released version 2.7.3 of the ODA platform, which delivers new features for DWGdirecta and DGNdirecta. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Stereolithography model brings Leonardo to life from Huntsman Advanced Materials: "Huntsman Advanced Materials provided the advanced technologies and innovative materials needed to build a high-quality stereolithography model of a rare 6.7m-long fossil.".
 
In August 2008, we covered the news from Moog Controls - take a look at SLA system produces professional parts which says: "Durable plastic parts promise unprecedented surface smoothness, feature resolution, edge definition and tolerances that rival the accuracy of CNC-machined plastic parts.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from DSM Somos, SL rapid tooling provides ideal system approach, as well as Plastic meets aerospace requirements from EOS Electro Optical Systems (UK), and Stereolithography material handles the heat from DSM Somos.
