Project Update: Overcuring of Stereolithography (SLA) Printed Fishing Lure
Research Overview: Achieving discoloration due to the overcuring process in stereolithographic (SLA) 3D printing requires a resin that is susceptible to color change during material degradation, so research was conducted to find the correct resins …
Overcuring of Stereolithography (SLA) Printed Fishing Lure
Background: In the fishing industry, some of the most popular lures are hard plastic crankbaits and jerkbaits. Hard plastic lures are currently made from two injection molded halves that are fused together after weights and …
