RAYSHAPE Talks Mass Manufacturing of High-Performance Parts Using DLP Technology

Nowadays, more and more companies are using 3D printing, not only for prototyping but also for the production of final parts. This is thanks to the numerous benefits of additive manufacturing technology, including cost and manufacturing time reduction, manufacturing locally, or minimal material waste, among others. In the case of DLP (Digital Light Processing) resin technology, the method offers fast printing speed, high surface quality, as well as dimensional and material accuracy that would be unthinkable with other methods. One of the companies working with this technology is RAYSHAPE, which is based in China. To learn more about its technology, solutions, and target sectors, we spoke with its founder, Zhen Liu, who introduced us to his company.

3DN: Can you briefly introduce yourself and explain your connection to 3D printing?

My name is Zhen Liu (Bill), the founder of RAYSHAPE. I entered the 3D printing industry in 2013, as soon as I graduated from college. During the nearly six years of working at UnionTech, as CTO, I learned a lot through in-depth research and development of photocuring 3D printing products and industrial application exploration, all of which allowed me to accumulate experience in software, hardware, and material development in addition to team management. As a result, I formed a deep understanding of the direction and opportunities of the 3D printing industry. Therefore, in 2019, I founded RAYSHAPE.
