Additive-X has been a proud partner of Formlabs since the early days of the Form 1. Their cutting-edge SLA technology, called Low Force Stereolithography (LFS), along with the innovative benchtop Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) Fuse Series, continues to push the boundaries of affordable 3D printing. We offer the complete range of Formlabs printers, including the Form 3L, Form 3BL, as well as their new Form 4, Form 4B, Form 4L and Form 4BL. Along with their advanced 3D printing materials, which are readily available for next-day delivery. To complement their printers, we also stock the essential post-processing units, such as the Form Wash and Form Cure for the Form Series, and the Fuse Sift for the Fuse Series.

FAQ’S
Commonly asked questions about Formlabs Form Series and Fuse Series 3D Printers
Post-curing is not required for Standard resins (Black, White, Clear, Grey), instead you can wash and leave the parts to dry in normal UV light. Additive-X recommends post-curing in the Form Cure for all other resins to achieve the mechanical and functional properties as specified on the Formlabs material data sheet.
It depends on a number of factors such as how long the tank has been in contact with resin, which resin you are using, and the geometry of your prints. The good news is your Form 3+/3B+ monitors the % remaining lifetime of the tank for you.
Because the powder contracts after printing, the maximum final build volume is actually 15.92 x 15.92 x 29.55 cm. The printer build volume is 16.5 x 16.5 x 30 cm.
