SGC used a UV sensitive liquid polymer, solidifying full layers in one pass by flooding UV light through masks created with electrostatic toner on a glass plate. Introduction of non-SL In 1991, three AM technologies were commercialized, including fused systems deposition modeling (FDM) from Stratasys, solid ground curing (SGC) from Cubital, and laminated object manufacturing (LOM) from Helisys.Ĥ FDM extrudes thermoplastic materials in filament form to produce parts layer by layer. ICI stopped selling its resin about one year later when Quadrax dissolved due to a legal conflict with 3D Systems. The following year, Imperial Chemical Industries introduced a visible light resin product for use with the Mark 1000. The same year, Quadrax introduced the Mark 1000 SL system, which used visible light resin. In 1990, Electro Optical Systems (EOS) of Germany sold its first Stereos stereolithography system. The following year, Japan Synthetic Rubber (now JSR Corp.) and DSM Desotech began to offer resins for the Sony/D MEC machines. In 1988, Asahi Denka Kogyo introduced the first epoxy resin for the CMET SL machine. NTT Data CMET (now a part of Teijin Seiki, a subsidiary of Nabtesco) called its system Solid Object Ultraviolet Plotter (SOUP), while Sony/D MEC (now D MEC) called its product Solid Creation System (SCS).ģ Sony stopped manufacturing SL systems for D MEC in 2007. After 3D Systems commercialized SL in the, Japan's NTT Data CMET and Sony/D MEC commercialized versions of stereolithography in 19, respectively.
Loctite also entered the SL resin business in the late 1980s, but remained in the industry only until 1993. DuPont's Somos stereolithography machine and materials were developed the same year. In 1988, 3D Systems and Ciba Geigy partnered in SL materials development and commercialized the first generation acrylate resins. (SLA stands for StereoLithography Apparatus.) The Viper SLA product from 3D Systems replaced the SLA 250 many years ago. additive manufacturing first emerged in 1987 with stereolithography (SL) from 3D Systems, a process that solidifies thin layers of ultraviolet (UV) light sensitive liquid polymer using a laser.Ģ The SLA 1, the first commercially available AM system in the world, was the precursor of the once popular SLA 250 machine. An analysis of AM, from the earliest inventions in the 1960s to the 1990s, is included in the final several pages of this document. Developments from May 2013 through April 2014 are available in the complete 276 page version of the Report. The document chronicles the History of additive manufacturing manufacturing (AM) and 3D printing, beginning with the initial by Terry Wohlers and Tim Gornet commercialization of stereolithography in 1987 to May 2013. Using heat from a laser, SLS fuses powder materials.ġ Wohlers Report 2014 History of additive manufacturing History of additive This 34 page document is a part of Wohlers Report 2014 and was created for its readers.
