When it comes to manufacturing custom 3D printed parts quickly, accurately and consistently, carbon Digital Light Synthesis (DLS) technology offers a number of advantages when compared to other common 3D printing methods, such as Digital Light Processing (DLP) and Selective Laser Sintering (SLS).
Also referred to as Continuous Liquid Interface Production (CLIP), DLS 3D printers can streamline the manufacturing of high-quality, fully dense parts with tight tolerances and outstanding surface finishes.
Production-Quality Printed Parts with Full Density
Carbon DLS printing can reliably manufacture production-ready parts with a high level of infill density. The ability to print end-use quality parts streamlines all design phases and helps you seamlessly transition your project into full-scale production. DLS printed parts are also perfect for on-demand production applications and just-in-time (JIT) manufacturing projects.
Quick Turnaround and Rapid Production Capabilities
The speed afforded by DLS 3D printing is highly beneficial for both quick-turnaround production and rapid prototyping projects. Whether you are trying to beat your competition to market or streamline the process of design iteration, carbon DLS is an ideal solution.
Greater Material Flexibility
Compatible with a variety of elastomers and a wide range of engineering-grade rigid materials, carbon DLS offers greater versatility in design for your products. Compared to many other 3D printing methods, DLS lets us choose a more optimized material for each custom application – optimized for manufacturing quality and consistency, as well as cost.
Extremely High Quality and Consistency
In terms of quality and consistency, carbon DLS 3D printing is in the top tier of additive manufacturing processes. The technology is able to consistently produce fully dense isotropic parts which are stronger, more reliable, and higher quality in appearance.
A Better Surface Finish for Premium Aesthetics
Speaking of appearance, DLS printed parts offer an outstanding surface finish, giving your products a premium aesthetic. Essentially, the superior structure of DLS printed plastics runs all the way through the structure of the part and shines through at the surface. Gone are the days of cheap-looking brittle parts, with DLS 3D printing offering an appearance comparable to injection molded plastics.
