SLA Printing: Is manufacturing a large soft robot possible?
M
Hello! I’m planning to manufacture a soft robot from flexible material, either silicone or Formlabs Flexible 50A Resin, with dimensions of approximately 45 cm in width, 30 cm in depth, and 30 cm in height. Could this be achieved within the scope of flexible SLA printing? What are the maximum dimensions possible for flexible SLA printing?
