The Formlabs Form 3BL 3D Printer

Form 3BL

The New Standard for High Volume Dental 3D Printing

The Form 3BL is the large format dental 3D printer that raises the bar for dependable high-production dental 3D printing, designed to work day and night with minimal intervention.

Form 3BL is now succeeded by Form 4BL, our next-generation dental 3D printer, which improves upon its foundation in every possible way.

The Next Generation of Dental 3D Printing

Form 4B is powered by our Low Force Display™ (LFD) Print Engine, setting the new industry standard for blazing-fast speed. Create high-quality dental models and biocompatible appliances fast, with easy workflows, leading reliability, and stunning part quality using the Form 4B ecosystem.

Speed That Scales

Powered by the same groundbreaking LFD technology, Form 4BL can print more than 100 models per hour with up to 3x fewer interactions than Form 4B, so you can increase efficiency and reduce labor costs.
