Form Auto
Realize the Benefits of High-Throughput 3D Printing
Form Auto is a hardware extension for Form 3/3+ 3D printers that automatically removes finished parts from Build Platform 2 and starts the next print without the need for operator interaction, enabling 24/7 3D printing with no printer downtime.
Skyrocket Your Ability to Produce High-Quality and Affordable Parts with Automated 24/7 3D Printing
Reduce cost per part with autonomous 24/7 printing on your Form 3/3+ 3D printer. Form Auto runs back-to-back prints which redefine your idea of throughput:
Start Scaling Your Production Now
Work more efficiently and redefine production capacity in your 3D printing workflow with Formlabs Automation Ecosystem including Form Auto, Fleet Control, and the High Volume Resin System.
Scale your part production without increasing printer management complexity. Hit send from anywhere and the Formlabs Automation Ecosystem will take care of the rest.
Minimize Cost Per Part with Labor Savings Up to 80%*
Form Auto works overtime so you don’t have to.
Before Form Auto, every completed part required manual removal from the build platform before post-processing. Form Auto fully automates part removal by leveraging Formlabs patented Quick Release Technology with Build Platform 2. Collected parts are placed in a UV-safe container for seamless batch transfer to the Form Wash.
Instantly automate your printers without additional training. Form Auto works with any Form 3/3+ 3D printer out in the field or purchased today, so you can level up your production at any time.

24/7 3D Printing, With No Interaction Required
Never let a printer sit idle with prints waiting in the queue. Form Auto is always ready to start the next print with or without an operator on-site.
Build multi-print queues from anywhere, at any time. Click ‘Print’ from the office, and instantly start production on the manufacturing floor.
Monitor and review finished parts remotely via images and videos in Fleet Control. An onboard camera saves a record of each part by capturing each print as it completes.

Crisp, Clean, Accurate Features
LFS technology accurately resolves fine features by delivering a clean, uniform laser spot across the entire print surface.
Production-Like Surface Finish
A flexible resin tank and refinements to the Light Processing Unit (LPU) create near perfect alignment between printed layers, giving parts a production-like finish.
Adaptive Layer Technology
Adaptive Layer Thickness automatically analyzes the geometry of parts and assigns layer heights throughout to maximize print speeds while preserving fine detail.
Maximum Efficiency
The Form 3+ is rich with features that improve ease of use so you can spend more time ideating and less time monitoring your printer.
Print From Anywhere
Prepare your printer before you leave, then start jobs from anywhere with our cloud based Remote Print technology.
Minimal Printer Interactions
No specialized technicians required. Get started right away and let the printer do the work.
Hassle-Free Materials Management
Switch between a wide range of functional materials in seconds with our swappable resin cartridge and tank system. Form 3+ dispenses resin automatically as parts print.
