Post-Processing

Bring SLA parts to the next level with Formlabs Finishing Tools: a curated set of post-processing solutions for SLA 3D printing that streamlines every step in the workflow from part and support removal to sanding, buffing, and polishing.

Curated by experienced engineers and validated by customers, these 3D printing finishing tools were designed to enhance surface finish, smooth planes and edges, and elevate overall appearance while driving down labor time and cost per part.

What’s Included:

• Pen Sander, Rotary tool, Bit kit, working mat, hobby knives and other accessories

Put the finishing touches on your parts quickly and easily with the comprehensive Form 4 Finish Kit, while keeping your workspace clean and organized. Includes two rinse buckets, rinse basket, removal tool, plastic tank scraper, Build Platform jig, flush cutters, squeeze bottle, and disposable nitrile gloves.

Form Cure V1 precisely combines heat and 405 nm light to consistently post-cure prints. Post-curing maximizes material properties for stereolithography prints, improving parts' strength and performance. For biocompatible materials, post-curing is necessary to achieve the safety standards determined by regulatory agencies.

Form Cure V2 is now available and offers blazing fast curing and near instant heat up with a larger chamber volume.

Form Cure V2 precisely combines heat and 405 nm light to deliver tough, strong prints with unprecedented speed and consistency. Now you can post-cure Form 4/B prints in as little as 60 seconds, with 4x more UV power, 5x faster heat-up times, and a 1.3x larger chamber. To begin curing, just select a validated preset for Formlabs 45+ materials. Advanced users can customize time and temperature to fit their specific needs.

Post-curing completes the chemical reaction started during printing, enhancing final part strength, toughness, heat resistance, and creep resistance while creating a harder, less tacky surface. For biocompatible materials, post-curing is necessary to achieve the safety standards determined by regulatory agencies.

Form Cure L V2 precisely combines heat and 405 nm light to deliver tough, strong prints with unprecedented speed and consistency. Now you can post-cure large Form 4L/BL prints in as little as 60 seconds, with 5x more UV power, faster heat-up times, and a 26% reduction in overall footprint from the previous generation while curing up to 19% larger parts. To begin curing, just select a validated preset for Formlabs 45+ materials. Advanced users can customize time and temperature to fit their specific needs.

Post-curing completes the chemical reaction started during printing, enhancing final part strength, toughness, heat resistance, and creep resistance while creating a harder, less tacky surface. For biocompatible materials, post-curing is necessary to achieve the safety standards determined by regulatory agencies.

Form Cure L V1 uses two 500W heaters and high-powered UV lights alongside a reflective inner cavity and rotating turntable to provide a consistent, high-intensity cure.

Form Cure L V2 is now available and offers blazing fast curing and near instant heat up with a larger chamber volume and compact footprint.

All SLA 3D printed parts require washing to remove residual resin. Form Wash L automatically cleans printed parts thoroughly and efficiently with IPA or alternative solvents.

Keep parts directly on the Build Platform as you transition them from the printer to Form Wash L, or remove parts and place them in the wash basket. Parts are precisely and thoroughly agitated in solvent with an impeller, getting every nook and cranny perfectly clean, automatically for the appropriate time. When washing completes, Form Wash automatically raises parts out of the solvent so they can air dry, avoiding over-soaked, warped prints.

Use Form Wash L with all of your Formlabs SLA 3D printers. Wash one Form 4L build platform or two Form 4 build platforms with the included build platform adapter.

Form Wash is compatible with all Formlabs desktop SLA 3D printers.

Formlabs Resin Washing Solution is a non-flammable solution for cleaning resin off of 3D printed parts. This solution cleans as well as IPA, but can dissolve nearly twice as much resin before becoming saturated. Reduce wash replenishing and cost per washed part with a part-cleaning solution safe enough for any workspace.

Formlabs Resin Washing Solution is recommended with Form Wash and Form Wash L.

Solvent Pump is a battery-powered pump that quickly fills and empties a wash bucket for Form Wash. Solvent Pump eliminates the risk of chemical spills and simplifies your workflow.

Put the finishing touches on your parts quickly and easily with the comprehensive Form 4L Finish Kit, while keeping your workspace clean and organized. The cleaning tools kit includes a drying tray, tank tool, tweezers, scraper, removal tool, build platform jig, rinse bottle, battery-powered solvent pump, flush cutters, and disposable nitrile gloves. The large-scale rinse bucket allows you to rinse prints directly on the build platform or after removal.
