Core Advantages of microArch S240A
1. 【Perfect Combination of High Precision and Ultra-Large Format】— 10 Micrometer Precision + 100×100×75mm Build Space
The microArch S240A offers 10 micrometer optical precision while providing 100mm(L) × 100mm(W) × 75mm(H) ultra-large build space, 8 times larger in area compared to the microArch S230A's 50×50×50mm. This enables printing of larger, more complex structures, such as:
-
Spiral Icosahedron: 10×10×10mm³, wall thickness 150μm, composed of smooth continuous curved surfaces with multiple interconnected cavities, applicable to mechanical metamaterials and biomedical applications
-
Gyroid, IWP, Octet Lattice Structures: Complex lattice structures for metamaterial applications
-
Endoscopes: Complex optical and mechanical structures
-
Micro Ratchet Arrays: Complex micro-mechanical structure arrays
2. 【Support for Ceramic Slurry】— New Possibilities for Precision Ceramic Manufacturing
The microArch S240A supports ceramic slurry, enabling direct printing of ceramic parts, such as:
-
Aluminum Oxide Ceramic Parts: High hardness, high-temperature stability
-
Silicon Nitride Ceramic Parts: High strength, wear resistance
-
Complex Ceramic Structures: Complex ceramic structures impossible to manufacture with traditional processes
-
Ceramic Metamaterials: Ceramic metamaterials with special properties
Compared to traditional ceramic manufacturing processes (such as slip casting, dry pressing), SLS ceramic printing offers the following advantages:
-
High Design Freedom: Capable of manufacturing complex structures impossible with traditional processes
-
No Molds Required: Saves mold costs and development time
-
Rapid Iteration: From design to physical part in just 24-48 hours
-
Small-Batch Economics: Suitable for small-batch production without large-scale investment
3. 【Wide Layer Thickness Range】— 10-40μm Layer Thickness Options
The microArch S240A supports 10-40μm layer thickness range, allowing selection of optimal thickness based on application requirements to achieve balance between precision and efficiency.
4. 【Three Build Modes】— Flexible Production Solutions
The microArch S240A offers three build modes to meet different application requirements:
-
Mode 1 - Single Projection Mode: 19.2mm(L) × 10.8mm(W) × 75mm(H) (highest precision)
-
Mode 2 - Stitching Mode: 100mm(L) × 100mm(W) × 75mm(H) (by stitching multiple projection areas)
-
Mode 3 - Repeated Array Mode: 100mm(L) × 100mm(W) × 75mm(H) (printing multiple identical parts)
5. 【Laser Ranging System】— Ensures Precision Consistency
The microArch S240A features a laser ranging system that automatically detects and adjusts focus, ensuring precision consistency for each layer, especially suitable for printing special materials like ceramic slurry.
6. 【Automated Workflow】— Improves Production Efficiency
The microArch S240A features an automated workflow that controls the entire process from design, slicing, printing to post-processing automatically, improving production efficiency.
7. 【Excellent Light Source Stability】— Ensures Consistent Print Results
The microArch S240A uses UV LED light source with excellent light source stability and long lifespan, ensuring consistent print results.
8. 【Adjustable Process Parameters】— Adapts to Multiple Application Requirements
The microArch S240A's process parameters are fully adjustable, allowing optimization based on different materials (photosensitive resin or ceramic slurry) and application requirements, adapting to multiple application scenarios.
9. 【Powerful Software】— Professional Slicing and Printing Software
The microArch S240A comes with powerful printing and slicing software supporting complex designs and optimization, especially for optimizing printing parameters for ceramic slurry.
