Formlabs Form Auto

Form Auto

Automation Hardware for Your Form 3/3+ 3D Printers

Form Auto is an automated hardware extension for Form 3/3+ 3D printers that automatically removes finished parts from the Build Platform 2 and starts the next print without the need for operator interaction, enabling 24/7 printing without downtime.

Form Auto can finish and accept new prints autonomously to work through a multi-print queue. Click ‘Print’ from anywhere, and have many parts waiting for you.

Fleet Control Software

Fleet Control

Advanced Printer Management Software

Fleet Control activates new, advanced features within our PreForm and Dashboard software that leverage automation and workflow optimization for advanced fleet management.

Transform how you manage a fleet of Formlabs SLA 3D printers and a group of users with automatic print-to-printer assignment, streamlined queueing, and optimized management.

High Volume Resin System

Seamless Resin Supply

The High Volume Resin System pumps resin directly into the resin tank from an external 5L Resin Bag, increasing your printer’s resin supply by five times the standard cartridge volume and reducing packaging waste by 96%.

The High Volume Resin System is made up of a 5L Resin Bag and a Resin Pump.

Save Money and Time

Minimize cost per part with labor savings of up to 80%*. The Formlabs Automation Ecosystem lets you significantly reduce the amount of labor needed to create each part. By printing, removing parts, and starting the next print autonomously, production doesn’t have to stop when you leave work. With Form Auto, batch post-process a bin full of parts at once in minutes.
