DLP 3D PRINTING
3D Printing for Mass Production

RRM Technology
DLP 3D printing process allows manufacturers to
speed up development cycles, make quick
adjustments to molds and prototypes, and create
highly complex and customizable parts. It is used in
a wide array of applications, including rapid
prototyping, jewelry casting, custom medical
implant production, and manufacturing of complex

automotive and aerospace components.

Parts are built as the platform moves continuously without

separation, which leads to a drastic reduction in the building
time. Continues movement creates a steady suction just As the speed increases
under the build platform. This steady suction causes a flow and the cost comes
of fresh resin between built platform and vat. So during the down, manufacturers
whole printing process, light coming from DLP light engine who used to rely on
encounters fresh resin first. This flow is steady if light, resin machining and injection

Traditional resin based printers build objects layer by layer volume are likely to
and have speeds about1-3 cm\hour. Whereas, RRM(Resin make the switch first.
Renewal Mechanism) technology reaches 1-3 cm building
speed not in hours but in minutes. As it is seen in the Fig
1and Fig 3, 3 cm height bust and pentagon are built in 2
minutes.
