Micro-nano 3D printing: PSL technology for IPFL
PSL technology utilizes a combination of advanced materials, high-resolution optics, and a precise motion control system to achieve ultra-high precision accuracy in micro-nano production. Here's an overview of how the PSL technology works:
Digital modeling: A 3D structural model of the desired part is created first using modeling software.
Slicing: Slicing software is used to slice a 3D model at a certain size of layer thickness to obtain a series of 2D** with a specific pattern, usually only a few microns thick, corresponding to the various layers of the 3D printed part.
Resin preparation: Photopolymer resins are sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) light, and photopolymerization undergoes a photopolymerization reaction under the action of ultraviolet light to cure.
Projection**: The modulated light is projected onto the surface of the liquid resin material through the final objective, selectively targeting specific areas** to create a specific structure.
Layer-by-layer construction: The entire surface of each layer of the sliced pattern is projected**, the previous step is repeated repeatedly, and the required 3D structure is finally formed layer by layer.
Post-processing: Once the print is complete, it is removed from the build platform and post-processed. This includes removing excess resin, removing support structures, and placing parts into the UV chamber for additional curing to increase strength.
With its outstanding manufacturing capabilities, PSL technology successfully enables the precise manufacture of complex parts with a resolution of up to 2 microns, which is suitable for applications where extreme precision and complex geometries are critically required. Due to the attention to detail and demand in the fields of aerospace, biomedical, precision electronics and micro-optics, PSL technology has become the key to their precision manufacturing.
Reduce costs and increase efficiency: The PSL system helps enterprises transform and upgrade.
Starting from the production efficiency of enterprises, micro-nano 3D printing with the help of PSL printing system can significantly reduce production costs and development cycles. By pushing the boundaries of traditional manufacturing tools, companies can save a lot of time and money in R&D, and the PSL system enables rapid prototyping, allowing engineers to iterate on designs more efficiently. This not only accelerates product development, but also helps to reduce material waste and thus enable sustainable production methods. In conclusion, the PSL printing system can bring an efficient and environmentally friendly manufacturing solution to the enterprise.
The use of BMF's precision PSL technology offers significant advantages for companies seeking high precision and complex component production. Its superior accuracy, cost-effective features, and rapid prototyping capabilities make it the perfect choice for high-precision manufacturing industries.
