SLA 5000 Solid Imaging Applications

BUILD MORE PARTS IN LESS TIME. SLA 5000's patented SmartSweep technology eliminates unnecessary sweeper motion, resulting in the fastest possible build times; its 0.05 mm build layer* creates a smooth finish that requires far less postprocessing time. Use its large 508 x 508 x 584 mm build envelope to build larger single parts, or more smaller parts at once. And SLA 5000's solid-state laser technology will deliver up to 35% more power over the SLA 3500.

TACKLE A FULL RANGE OF SOLID IMAGING APPLICATIONS. The SLA SLA 5000 is compatible with a range of 3D Systems' stereolithography materials, including our heat-resistant SL 5530HT resin.

GET ECONOMY AND RELIABILITY THAT PROTECT YOUR INVESTMENT. SLA 5000's long-life solid-state laser and low power requirements ensure a predictable, manageable cost of ownership. Its automatic resin dispensing system refills the vat for you - so you spend less time on maintenance and build preparation, and more time up and running. And like all our SLA systems, the SLA 5000 comes complete with 3D Lightyear and Buildstation software, so you can support your entire organisation without additional per-user costs.

INVEST IN A PROVEN SOLUTION. A mainstay at companies like GM, AlliedSignal, and Daimler Chrysler, the SLA 5000 is built to handle critical imaging workloads. Depend on it to help you innovate, cut costs, and beat your competition to market with the highest-quality products you've ever produced.

COUNT ON A TOTAL SOLUTION. Every SLA 5000 system includes easy-to-use 3D Lightyear file preparation software. Every system works with a variety of our specially formulated resins, covering a broad range of modeling and prototyping applications. And every system is backed by 3D Systems' Global Support's programme at a local level, which you can tailor to meet your production needs and your budget. Turn to 3D Systems' Educational Services for expert hands-on training in the latest solid imaging methodologies and techniques. Tap the expertise of the 3D Systems' Technology Center for demos, benchmarks for additional modelmaking capacity. It's a complete solid imaging solution you won't find anywhere else.

Use the SLA 5000 solid imaging system for:

• Prototypes for design verification and testing
• Patterns for casting and molding
• Tools for pre-production tooling
• Parts for manufacturing aids, quote enhancement and limited production runs
