The purpose scope of this paper is to analyze the economic aspects of making 3D printing components for the development of a machine for experimental devices or stands used in the laboratory or industrial activity. The author of this paper intends to make a clarification related to the approach of the productive economic aspects through the production of components through the additive technology of SLA type. The work is structured in 5 chapters. For the generation of the constructive elements, a laser printer will be used, where the components will be generated on the bottom-up principle. The analysis will be carried out both from a constructive and functional point of view, taking into account the possibilities of component design and their realization. The next chapter is allocated to analyzing how to perform the printer's command program and to check the part structure. Part of this chapter is devoted to the way and role of the elements of orientation and support of the component that is being made. The fourth chapter presents the economic calculation program made with practical applications related to the parts generated in the previous chapter. The last chapter is allocated to the conclusions and comparisons from the technological-economic point of view compared with other specific technologies for generating the analyzed parts.
