TIR Prisms: The Unsung Heroes of DLP Optical Engines
In the world of digital light processing, TIR prisms serve as the critical bridge between micro-mirror arrays and projection optics. Their ability to precisely redirect light while maintaining polarization and minimizing losses makes them indispensable for high-performance DLP systems. Why...
Pixelation Phenomenon in UV DLP 3D Printing: Causes and Mechanisms
UV DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology is widely used in resin 3D printing for its speed and precision, but printed models may exhibit "pixelation," characterized by tiny square or grid-like textures on surfaces. This phenomenon is closely tied to the...
UV DLP vs LCD 3D Printing: Key Differences
1. Light Source Technology UV DLP: Uses a digital light projector to cure entire layers at once with UV light. LCD: Employs an LCD mask and UV backlight to selectively block/transmit light pixel-by-pixel. 2. Print Speed DLP is generally faster...
