There are three steps in SLAs: 1) A thin layer made up of photopolymer (0.05–0.15 mm) is exposed on the platform, which is perforated and painted over the organ that has to be printed. 2) The UV light rapidly hardens the liquid, resulting in the formation of the first layer of the 3D bioprinting organ.
The X1 160 Pro by ExOne is touted as their largest metal 3D printer ever with a build volume of 160 liters. It also boasts of high printing speeds, material versatility, and cloud connectivity capabilities. This combination of features makes the X1 160 Pro a metal 3D printer that is geared towards rapid high-volume production.
He says, "We cannot predict the future. We can only create a vision of what it might be.". Here, more revolutionary visions of our 3D printed future: 1. Rocket parts. NASA is working on the largest rocket ever constructed that is projected to take humans to Mars by 2030.

Using 3D printing to restore decaying coral reefs. According to research, more than 50% of the world''s coral reefs have died in the last 30 years, and up to 90% may die within the next century. Bleaching, which makes reefs more susceptible to disease, occurs due to rising ocean temperatures, pollution, and overexposure to sunlight.
Combine this with the advancement of other powerful technologies and tools like AI and digital twins, or virtual replicas of 3D printers and their processes, and
Of the three, large-scale metal 3D printing is perceived to have the potential for the largest commercial growth with an estimated value of $739 million by 2026. Notable companies banking on this trend include Azul 3D as they develop a 3D printer based on digital light processing (DLP) technology.
