How much do parts cost?


The prices of the SLA machines vary depending mainly upon size of the vat. Prices from Dynacept, Inc. were as follows:

SLA-190: $105,000  7.9 in x 7.9 in x 9.8 in
SLA-250  $210,000  10 in x 10 in x 14 in
SLA-250  $420,000  20 in x 20 in x 24 in

The cost of individual parts varies widely, based on processing time and resin used. The more intricate the part, the higher the cost. At least one firm offers the possibility of "membership," which entails an annual fee. This fee gives the member a set number processing hours per year, saving perspective customers the high initial cost involved in purchasing an SLA machine.
