Produce stunning parts that always fit, rivalling injection molded parts.
Sharpest Details Highly collimated light and 50 µm pixel size with pre-tuned anti-aliasing for subpixel resolution
Smoothest Surfaces Lower peel forces, light touch supports, and 50 µm pixel size with pre-tuned anti-aliasing
Most Accurate Assemblies ±0.15% XY dimensional tolerances so assembles always fit.
Tackle any problem with our industry-leading materials.
Formlabs has a vast library of specific use case resins as well as general purpose resins that still offer enchanced mechanical properties over other resins. Use Formlabs Resin for:
General Purpose
Tough. Impact-resistant, PP-like, ABS-like
Rigid. Ultra stiff, high strength, glass-filled
Flame Retardant. UL 94 V-0 certified, FST rated
Silicone. 100% pure silicone
Elastic. Translucent elastomers. 50A and 80A shore hardness
Unmatched reliability. Stop coming back to failed prints.
With new systems in place to ensure you never come back to a failed print
Validated Print Settings: Formlabs optimization engineers put hundreds of printed parts to the test to ensure each material performs to the most reliable standards, right out of the box.
Intelligent Control Systems: Six control systems precisely measure and maintain the temperature, resin level, print forces, and print status inside your printer.
Long-Lasting Consumables: Robust hardware that was engineered for years of use. Tank rated for >75,000 layers for all materials. Light Processing Unit rated for >750,000 layers.
Factory Calibration: 60-point calibration and quality control inspection before your printer even leaves the factory.
Remote Monitoring: Monitor your prints and manage your printers from anywhere with an integrated camera, preventative maintenance reminders, and our free Dashboard software.

Testimonies
"Form 4 is our go-to choice for projects needing tight tolerances and engineering-grade materials. It produces high-performance parts with amazingly fast print times and makes it possible for our model makers to produce multiple iterations in a 24-hour period.
- Mark Honschke, Additive Prototyping Lead -Microsoft
"The dramatic increase in print speed for Form 4 has significantly accelerated our fabrication cycle - to the point where I can iterate through many different designs every day and go from design to usable functional parts within the hour"
-Matt Mullin, Laser Engineer -NASA
"I really appreciate the reliability paired with the speed. it's not one or the other, like many other tools. Now I can commit to internal deadlines and feel confident that I can deliver every time.
Bruno Alves, Development Engineer AM/IM -Ford
