Kings 3DSLA 1700 ProIndustrial Stereolithography at 1.7-Metre Scale
Print full-size automotive, aerospace, and architectural parts in a single build — on a full-marble structural platform built for production-grade stability.
The Kings SLA 1700 Pro is one of the largest stereolithography systems in the Kings line — a 1700 × 800 × 650 mm build envelope driven by a 355 nm solid-state laser and a closed-loop galvanometer scanning at up to 15 m/s. A full marble structural platform anchors recoating and scanning for repeatable accuracy across the entire build area. Full specifications →

Factory-Built Precision. US-Supported by Rev1.
The SLA 1700 Pro is built by Kings 3D with international top-brand optics — a US Optowave laser and a German Scanlab galvanometer — and supported in the United States by Rev1 Technologies. We handle application engineering, delivery, installation, and operator training so a 2.78-tonne industrial machine arrives ready to produce.
WHY THE SLA 1700 PRO
One of the Largest SLA Systems Kings Builds — Whole Parts, One Print
At 1700 × 800 × 650 mm, the SLA 1700 Pro swallows parts that would otherwise have to be split, bonded, and re-finished: a full automotive interior section, a one-piece architectural facade panel, a life-size sculpture, or a batch of aerospace shells nested across the plate. Stereolithography gives you the surface finish and feature fidelity that powder and filament processes cannot — and the 1700 Pro delivers it at industrial scale.
ENHANCED PRINTING EFFICIENCY
Intelligent High-Speed Scanning — Fast Where It Can Be, Fine Where It Must Be
The 1700 Pro’s scanning system reaches 15 m/s, but raw speed is only half the story. A variable laser spot and variable power let the machine switch automatically between a fine beam for detail and a broad, high-power beam for fast bulk fill — so large parts finish faster without surrendering edge sharpness.
LONG-TERM PRINTING STABILITY
A Full Marble Structural Platform — Built to Hold Accuracy for Years
On a 1.7-metre machine, the structure is the precision. Kings builds the 1700 Pro on a full marble platform — a marble recoater frame, a marble elevator holder, and a marble scanning-system base. Marble’s mass and thermal stability resist vibration and drift, so recoating and scanning stay aligned across the entire build area, print after print, for the life of the machine.
Why Marble, Not Steel
Steel frames expand and ring; marble does neither. Its high mass damps the micro-vibration that blurs fine features, and its low thermal expansion keeps geometry stable as the cabinet warms over a long build. The recoater rides a marble frame for consistent resin layers, and the galvanometer sits on a marble base so the beam lands exactly where the file says — corner to corner of an 0.88 m² plate.
High-Stiffness Light Recoater
A high-stiffness light recoater sweeps each layer for recoating accuracy and efficiency, while an intelligent position vacuum recoating system distributes resin evenly across the full surface — critical on a build this wide, where uneven coating would otherwise leave thickness variation between the centre and the edges of the plate.
INTERNATIONAL TOP-BRAND COMPONENTS
US Optowave Laser, German Scanlab Galvo — Uniform Curing Across the Whole Plate
Kings specs the 1700 Pro’s critical optics from the names the industry trusts: an Optowave solid-state laser from the USA and a Scanlab galvanometer from Germany. A compensation algorithm for the multi-head system ensures the curing energy is uniform across the full build area — so a feature printed near the edge of the plate cures exactly like one printed at the centre.
WHAT IT PRINTS
Real Parts, Real Industries — Automotive, Aerospace & Functional Prototyping
The 1700 Pro earns its footprint on the parts that need both size and finish. These are output samples from Kings industrial SLA systems across the applications the 1700 Pro is built for.
Full-Scale Automotive Body & Design Verification
A 1.7-metre envelope prints full-size body panels and design-verification models in a single piece — the kind of styling and fit study that would otherwise be split across multiple machines and bonded together. Studios use it to validate form, surface, and proportion at 1:1 before tooling.
Interior Trim, Consoles & Styling Models
Center consoles, dashboards, and door-card sections come off the plate with crisp detail and a smooth surface ready for paint or soft-touch finishing. The 800 mm Y-axis captures a full-width interior module in one print, so designers evaluate a complete assembly rather than glued-up fragments.
ARCHITECTURE, ART & FUNCTIONAL PARTS
Architecture, Sculpture, Footwear & Optically-Clear Functional Parts
Beyond automotive and aerospace, the same envelope and finish serve architecture, large-format art, footwear tooling, and transparent functional parts — anywhere size, detail, and surface matter together.
Clear, Complex Functional Parts
Transparent resins print internal channels, manifolds, and light-guide geometry you can see straight through — ideal for flow visualization, optics, and functional prototypes that have to reveal what’s happening inside. The 1700 Pro’s fine layers and uniform curing keep those internal surfaces clean and the part optically usable.
Architecture & Full-Scale Furniture
Architects and product designers print full-scale furniture, facade modules, and presentation models at a size that reads as the real object, not a maquette. One-piece printing means no visible seams in the final presentation surface — the model looks manufactured, not assembled.
Large-Format Art & Installations
Sculptors and exhibition fabricators use the 1700 Pro for installation-scale pieces — spheres, organic forms, and intricate geometry that would be impractical to carve or mould. SLA captures the fine surface detail that makes a printed art piece read as finished work rather than a prototype.
Footwear & Shoe-Mould Tooling
Footwear development moves on SLA: last prototypes, midsole concepts, and shoe-mould masters print with the smooth surface and crisp edge detail a mould needs. The 1700 Pro’s envelope lets a footwear team batch a full size run in a single build rather than printing one size at a time — one of the application areas Kings calls out specifically for this platform.
Dental, Medical & Electronics Prototyping
The same precision serves the smaller, exacting work in Kings’ application list — dental and medical models, animation maquettes, and electronics housings — where 0.05 mm layers and ±0.15 mm accuracy matter more than size. On the 1700 Pro you nest a full plate of these and produce them as a batch, turning a large-format machine into a high-mix production tool.
INTELLIGENT VACUUM RECOATING
Even Coating Across 0.88 m² — the Hard Problem on a Wide Plate
On a build this wide, the recoating system decides whether the part is uniform. The 1700 Pro uses intelligent position vacuum recoating to lay down each resin layer at a consistent thickness from edge to edge, paired with a high-stiffness light recoater that keeps the sweep flat and fast. The result is layer-to-layer consistency that holds accuracy on parts approaching the full 1.7-metre length.
PRODUCTION DEPLOYMENT
Built for the Factory Floor — Single-Phase Power, Modest Siting
Despite its scale, the 1700 Pro sites on standard single-phase power and a tightly defined climate window. Plan the 248 × 169 cm footprint and a clean, climate-controlled room, and it integrates into an existing production or studio environment without three-phase service or special infrastructure.
OWNING THE 1700 PRO WITH REV1
