Carbon Digital Light
Synthesis (DLS)^TM Process

DLS^TM uses digital UV light projection, oxygen permeable optics, and programmable liquid resins to make reliable, watertight, isotropic plastic parts with a surface finish similar to injection molding.

Why Make Parts Using The Carbon DLS^TM Process?

Parts produced by Carbon DLS^TM are stronger and more resilient with exceptional accuracy and mechanical properties
Carbon DLS^TM parts undergo secondary thermal curing to ensure produced parts have engineering-grade mechanical properties
