Practice - 5 Tasks

1fill in blank

easy

Complete the code to identify the main material used in SLA printing.

3D Printing

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Choosing plastic or metal as the main material.

SLA printing uses photopolymer resin that hardens when exposed to light.

Complete the code to name the light source used in SLA printers.

3D Printing

SLA printers use a [1] to cure the resin layer by layer.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Confusing with LED or general light sources.

SLA printers use a laser to precisely harden the resin.

Fix the error in the description of the SLA process.

3D Printing

In SLA, the laser [1] the resin by heating it until it melts.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Thinking the resin melts like plastic in other 3D printing.

The laser cures (hardens) the resin using light, not by melting it.

4fill in blank

hard

Fill both blanks to describe the layer formation and movement in SLA.

3D Printing

Each layer is [1] by the laser, and the build platform [2] down to allow the next layer.

Drag options to blanks, or click blank then click option'

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Using 'heated' instead of 'cured' or 'moves' instead of 'lowers'.

The laser cures each layer, and the platform lowers to build the next layer.

5fill in blank

hard

Fill all three blanks to complete the SLA printing workflow.

3D Printing

The [1] directs the laser, the resin [2] when exposed to light, and the platform [3] after each layer.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Confusing the device that directs the laser or the platform movement.

The galvanometer directs the laser, the resin hardens with light, and the platform lowers after each layer.
