Short for Stereolithography Apparatus, SLA 3D printing is a 3D printing process that fabricates a structure layer by layer. It’s a form of vat photopolymerization: a resin 3D printing technique that produces objects by selectively curing photopolymer liquid resin through light-activated polymerization. The build platform is lowered into or raised out of a vat of liquid photopolymer resin during the process.

In SLA printing, the builder focuses a laser beam (usually a UV light) on the free surface of a photosensitive liquid in a point-to-point sequence.
