mSLA \/ mDLP 3D printing of intricate details with smooth surfaces in small batches<\/h3><\/div>
The right material for your needs\u2014not the other way around<\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text css=””]The finest details, the smoothest surfaces, internal channels, and complex geometries\u2014this is the domain of micro-stereolithography \/ DLP printing. We print your parts to a consistently high standard: with optimized settings for each material, and tested before shipment.<\/p>\n

Our approach: First, we identify your requirements\u2014temperature, chemical resistance, elongation, appearance\u2014then we select the material from various suppliers such as Henkel, Altana, igus, Heygears, deltamed, and many others. We don\u2019t use standard printing; instead, we tailor the parameters to each specific resin.<\/p>\n

A comprehensive solution for the industrial sector, medical technology, the food industry, development labs, and 3D printing service providers who value the high quality of photopolymer printing and don\u2019t want to spend endless time testing material parameters, support settings, and post-curing.[\/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Contact us about your desired material” css=”” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fphanos3d.com%2Fen%2Fcontact%2F|title:Contact|”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”stretch_row” equal_height=”yes” css=”.vc_custom_1575453801960{padding-top: 85px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.04) !important;*background-color: rgb(0,0,0) !important;}”][vc_column offset=”vc_col-lg-12 vc_col-md-12″ css=”.vc_custom_1648660591157{margin-top: -20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}”]

For which applications is mSLA 3D printing the right choice?<\/h3><\/div>
Do you have very specific material requirements or need to use original materials? In that case, we can use negative molds to create the material\u2014for example, with silicones for gaskets.<\/div><\/div>[vc_column_text css=””]<\/p>\n
    \n
  • Nozzles and fluidic components: internal channels with diameters starting at 0.5 mm, smooth flow channels, pressure-tight.<\/li>\n
  • Lab-on-a-chip and microfluidics: delicate structures, optically clear materials, tight tolerances.<\/li>\n
  • Electronic switches and housing components: precision locking geometries, snap-fits, and snap hooks\u2014without tooling costs.<\/li>\n
  • Prototypes and pre-production samples: from the first sample to small-batch production without tooling changes.<\/li>\n
  • Master models for silicone casting and vacuum casting: a smooth surface as the basis for mass production.<\/li>\n
  • Any application with high standards for surface finish, detail, and freedom of geometry.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          \u201cPhanos helped us 3D scan a medical sensor device for training purposes, of which we only had a physical prototype. Phanos created the master patterns using a printing technique that produces very smooth surfaces, making them ideal for mass production via vacuum casting. Phanos also handled this process. Each copy was customized with a serial number.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n
