SUGGESTION OF A DLP BASED STEREOLITHOGRAPHY 3D PRINTER

Abstract

The Digital Light Processing (DLP) 3D printer is a tool that utilizes Additive Manufacturing (AM) technology to build a 3D model straight from the CAD model. There are various 3D printing technologies that differ in many ways, including the material used, the techniques used to create the sample, the speed and accuracy, and a wide range of other factors. Choosing the best production method depends on the work at hand, ensuring that the product's material and quality meet the necessary standards. Although the DLP technology has a straightforward design, it offers an impressive array of quality and adaptability. This study offers a customized design that assures high manufacturing quality. To verify the functionality of the developed 3D printer, three distinct types of experiments using various CAD designs were conducted. Surface quality, minute details, and precise measurements have all been achieved in these trials. Additionally, two separate tests were created to confirm the desired output results.
