Continuous Liquid ◦ The latest innovation in Vat Photo

Interface polymerisation technique which is 100 times

Production (CLIP) faster than the traditional SLA technique.

◦ The technique was put forward by a less
known company Carbon3D.

◦ In this technique the laser projector is placed
at the bottom and the vat resin filled in a

container has an oxygen permeable window
between the laser projector and the resin.

◦ The oxygen permeable window allows faster
continuous building of the 3D model and is
able to change pulses of the ultraviolet

radiations as well.

◦ The oxygen permeable window creates a

dead zone between the remaining liquid
resins other than the resin exposed to the
radiation.

Figure 5.2 : Continuous ◦ This allows to break through the traditional

Liquid Interface Production layer after layer building of SLA technique.
(CLIP) Due to continuous building process, the 3D
model is built faster.
