Slice resolution
A slice parameter that specifies the number of slice units assigned to each CAD unit of measure.
SmartSweep recoating process
A feature used to reduce the build times by sweeping only over that portion of the vat where a part
is being built instead of sweeping the full area of the resin delivery module. See Sweep.
Stereolithography
A three dimensional imaging process that forms plastic objects by solidifying successive layers of
photocurable resin.
Stereolithography file (STL)
The tessellated (triangulated) CAD input file.
Supports
Structures designed on the CAD system or by 3D Lightyear File Preparation Software to support
a part above the elevator platform, provide a rigid foundation on which the object may be built,
and attach and support layer sections.
Sweep
A pass of the recoater blade from the front of the resin delivery module to the rear or from rear
to front. The act of removing excess resin from the upper surface of the part or adding a layer of
fresh resin during the recoat process. See Recoating and also see SmartSweep recoating process.
