Digital light processing
Term · Additive manufacturing and 3D printing · MLC-T-ADM-000099
A resin-based additive manufacturing process that uses a digital micromirror device (DMD) to project an entire image of each layer simultaneously onto a vat of photopolymer resin. This method cures the resin layer by layer, solidifying the desired cross-section. DLP printers are known for their speed and ability to produce parts with fine details.
