SLA printing from a real order
The parcel shelf bracket from a BMW M440i xDrive: the broken original arrived by post, we scanned it, rebuilt the CAD and printed the replacement on a Formlabs printer.

Resin, a UV laser and a layer-free surface
SLA (stereolithography) cures liquid resin with a UV laser, layer by layer. Layers are 0.025 to 0.100 mm thick, so edges stay crisp, small details stay legible, and the finished surface is smooth with practically no visible layer lines.
That is the gap FDM cannot close: half-millimetre lettering, thin walls, fine textures and organic shapes come out the way they were modelled. After printing, each part is washed, dried and post-cured under UV light, then the supports come off and the part is ready for painting or assembly.
Resins
Six Formlabs resins in stock
Every resin is genuine Formlabs, in three categories: standard resins for looks and detail, engineering resins for toughness and stiffness. Each one's price shows in the calculator as you select it.
Grey Resin V5
Standard
Neutral grey with excellent detail contrast. The default choice for concept models, miniatures and anything that gets photographed.
Black Resin V5
Standard
Deep black for presentation parts, masks and models where no layer sheen should show.
White Resin V5
Standard
Bright white for presentation prototypes and models ready to be painted.
Clear Resin V5
Standard
Translucent resin for optically clear parts, covers and light guides. Polishing improves clarity further.
Tough 2000 V2
Tough & Durable
ABS-like strength and toughness. For functional prototypes, snap joints and parts that get assembled and taken apart.
Rigid 10K
Stiff & Strong
Glass-filled, extremely stiff and dimensionally stable. For precise engineering parts that must not flex under load.
Resin availability and layer heights are shown in the calculator when you pick a material.
Where SLA pays off
Any time what matters is how the part looks up close and how precisely it fits, rather than how big it is.
Miniatures and figures
Faces, weapons, fabric folds and tiny ornaments stay legible at a 0.025 mm layer, with no sanding or filling.
Jewelry and small ornaments
Rings, pendants and jewelry masters, with a smooth surface ready for further finishing.
Precise prototypes
Housings, covers and tight-fitting assemblies, where both dimensions and surface finish have to be right.
Translucent parts
Light guides, sensor covers and models that need to show the inside of an assembly, printed in Clear resin.

SLA 3D printing, in short
How much does SLA 3D printing cost?
SLA printing starts at roughly 15 EUR, because the resin and the finishing process cost more than FDM. You get the exact price for your model straight away in the calculator, VAT and shipping included.
How is SLA different from FDM?
FDM melts a plastic filament and builds the part in layers of 0.08 mm and up, so layer lines are visible and can be felt. SLA cures resin in 0.025 mm layers, the surface is smooth and small details stay sharp. FDM is cheaper and more practical for large functional parts, SLA wins whenever detail and appearance matter.
Is there a minimum order?
No. We print a single part, with no setup fee and no minimum quantity.
What is the largest SLA part you can print?
The Form 4 takes parts up to 200 × 210 × 125 mm and the Form 3L up to 335 × 300 × 200 mm. Larger models are split into parts and bonded after printing.
Are SLA parts brittle?
Standard resins are stiffer and more brittle than FDM plastics, so for parts that take impact or bending we go with Tough 2000 V2, and for stiffness with dimensional stability, Rigid 10K.
Where do you deliver?
Anywhere in Croatia through BOX NOW lockers or DPD, and across Europe through DPD international. Shipping cost is shown before payment, with no hidden fees.
