Fundamentals of Stereolithography

It has only been a little over four years since the introduction of the first StereoLithography system, the SLA-1. From early 1988 until J.une 1992 over 300 SLA-1, SLA-250, SLA-190 and SLA-500 units have been sold by 3D Systems. These machines, currently operating in 20 countries on five continents, amount to about 90 percent of all the rapid prototyping systems now in use.
