Abstract
We investigate a novel textured window design for the continuous stereolithography process. The proposed textured window allows the formation of a liquid interface, enabling a reliable continuous projection stereolithography process. Both solid and hollow structures have been studied as test cases and were continuously printed using textured window-based projection stereolithography systems. The surface roughness of printed parts is characterized, and the effect of the continuous printing speed on the surface quality is investigated. Experimental results verified the effectiveness of the proposed textured window for enabling continuous printing, preventing the overlarge separation force, and achieving a high surface finish.
