Hello, I have access to some pretty capable coordinate measuring machine at a local university and I am wondering, what kind of features should I measure? I’ll be measuring printed objects from my custom-made MSLA printer (www.oliver3d.com) and as a complete beginner in metrology, I’m a bit stuck with deciding what to measure. Which parameters matter the most to you when you print functional partby Oliver3D - General
JoergS5: You're obviously free to modify it however you want, although if you publish it online, I'd be glad if you mention the original project (something like the sentence "adapted from Oliver MSLA printer" will definitely suffice ). The only real drawback of the licence is that you have to keep in mind that you can't sell the printer commercially. I have absolutely no objections against thatby Oliver3D - General New Machines Topics
Hi, thanks . Regarding the operating costs, they're indeed higher compared to FFF machine. Resins are just one part and you have to account for all the other things, namely: isopropyl alcohol (depends - if you buy it in small quantity, then you can get as high as 1 USD per print), nitrile gloves - 1 USD per print, safety containers for the IPA + resin solution (prepared to safe disposal accordingby Oliver3D - General New Machines Topics
Hi Mike, thanks for the praise. I appreciate it . The file is so big because it contains the SD card image and all the CAD files (created in Autodesk Inventor Educational edition - hence I had to publish it under the non-commercial license).by Oliver3D - General New Machines Topics
Hello everyone, The market is being flooded by cheap SLA printers offering better resolution than FFF printers. There's one problem, however. They're not open source! I'm a high school student from Czech Republic and I've decided to change that. I've spent last 18 months developing a custom MSLA 3D printer that's comparable to similarly priced commercial machines (the printer costs roguhly 720 Uby Oliver3D - General New Machines Topics
Hello, I'm building my own MSLA 3D printer. And I'm stuck with attaching protective glass to the mask (LCD). There are two options: 1) Create my own protective glass using 5mm thick plexiglass. I would attach it using LOCA glue. This assembly will be very strong, but not very scratch resistant. Air bubbles shouldn't be a big problem. 2) Use professional protective glass . It has some glue on it aby Oliver3D - Developers
