Resin car bodies are very light considering the nature of the material and maintain a certain degree of flexibility and strength compared to molded products. Initially, this new feature will be available only for classic cars, but will gradually be extended to all production. TA71 has decided to launch a resin body option for all its 1/32 scale kits.
The resolution of a printed part using a DLP 3D printer generally corresponds to the number of micromirrors within a DMD device. A DMD contains hundreds of thousands or even millions of tiny micromirrors that direct light and create the pattern of a layer at the bottom of the resin tank. It is a great evolution of the well-known and previous stereolithography (SLA) thanks to the adoption of a digital micromirror device (DMD), the 'heart' of every DLP chipset.
Cell polymerization 3D printing technologies use a photopolymer (liquid) resin that can solidify under a light source. Now go one step further by implementing the new DLP technology.ĭLP is a digital light processing and is a type of tray polymerization. The Area71 SlotCars has been achieving significant penetration in the slotcar kit model market for a few years with the application of 3DP technology.
