The 3D printing process that cures liquid resin using UV light is called Stereolithography or ________.

  1. SLA
  2. O-RAN
  3. TDMA
  4. AePS

Answer: SLA

SLA (Stereolithography) uses a UV laser to selectively cure photopolymer resin layer by layer, producing high-resolution parts with smooth surfaces. Used for prototypes, dental models, and jewelry. Post-curing and support removal required. One of the earliest additive manufacturing technologies, foundational for resin-based printing.
