Design Guide: How to orientate parts for stereolithography

Download our design guide to learn how to orientate parts for stereolithography so you can achieve industry leading part quality with stereolithography 3D printing services from TriMech.

Careful build preparation results in reliable part production

Design consideration and part orientation is an important step in the 3D printing build preparation process.

When printing parts using stereolithography (SLA) 3D printing technology, how you orientate a part on the platform and generate supports prior to print can impact the accuracy and success of the final build.

Design considerations for 3D printing

The reliable and proven Stratasys Neo® stereolithography 3D printer used by our services team can build high-quality parts that are dimensionally accurate, with exceptional sidewalls and sharp feature resolution, reducing finishing time by up to 50%. The Stratasys Neo 3D printer can produce many parts in one build or larger parts, perfect for highly demanding industries requiring more speed and reliability.
