Abstract

A 3D printing system includes a resin vessel, a build plate positioning mechanism, a plurality of lower datums, and a build plate. The build plate positioning mechanism includes a pair of L-shaped brackets that individually include a fixed vertical portion, a movable portion, and an adjustment mechanism. The movable portion includes a lateral lower end. The adjustment mechanism is configured to adjust and set an angular position of the lateral lower end with respect to the fixed vertical portion. The build plate has a plurality of upper datums configured to engage and align to the plurality of lower datums when the build plate is placed upon the pair of L-shaped brackets. The plurality of lower datums are arranged upon the pair of L-shaped brackets to enable the adjustment mechanisms of the pair of L-shaped brackets to provide an independent angular adjustment of the build plate along two lateral axes.
