Printhead drops per second calculated as number of nozzles multiplied by maximum drop frequency.
Increases in light source optical power correlate to increases in polymerization speed.

Increases in number of projection pixels enable larger build sizes without sacrificing resolution.
5. Projection arrays allow for native resolution and power as large as needed.
