In April 2016,Zhuhai CTC Electronic ,Chinese 3D printer manufacturer from the Guangdong province ,announced that they will be entering the production 3D printing market with the very impressive upcoming Riverbase 500 SLA 3D printer, featuring high-speed laser galvanometer scanning technology.  Their new square-shaped 3D printer is huge, at 1.75 meters long, 1.10 meters wide, 1.95 meters high. Featuring a brown-green color scheme that should blend in with any office or production environment, it has a sleek and dynamic exterior – though a box spanner allows for a high level of customization. It is of course a stereolithography 3D printer, and uses ultraviolet light to cure photosensitive polymers. This technique is one of the most widely used deposition-based 3D printing technologies in production machines, with over 50 percent of all machines in the world using SLA. In the Chinese market, that number is as high as 60 percent, though most of those are imported 3D printers.  The company is therefore right to assume that there’s definitely a market for their machine. The Riverbase 500 is also the first Chinese-made Gcode-format 3D printer to be equipped with CTC's proprietary operation system RiverOS, the company reveals. Other features include: a stable operation and mobility of high precision screw rails and a negative pressure-and-adsorption-based system to ensure reliable and uniform coatings;
an automated optimization process for scanning paths for faster production and an instantly measured laser power to ensure top level processing parameters; and a high level of automation, including automated liquid level control, for 24-hour unattended processing. The machine also supports scanning design separation and convenient post-processing options. It’s price tag is RMB 530,000 for the Chinese market, and $86,000 in the US market.
