Incredible Part Quality

Stop sacrificing on quality for larger prints. The Form 3L provides the incredible surface finish and fine detail that stereolithography 3D printing is known for.

Optimized laser path:

Two staggered Light Processing Units (LPUs) inside the printer use a compact system of lenses and mirrors to deliver accurate, repeatable prints.

Crisp, clean features:

Each high-density laser passes through a spatial filter to guarantee a clean laser spot.

Consistent precision:

A parabolic mirror ensures that the laser prints perpendicular to the build plane, ensuring uniform print quality across the entire build platform.

Intuitive and efficient

The Form 3L offers automatic resin dispensing, simple print preparation software, and an interface anyone at your company can use. 

Nonstop printing:

Integrated sensors help maintain ideal print conditions and send you alerts about the state of your machine.

Closed-loop calibration:

Optical sensors continuously correct for scale and power, and can even detect dust.

User-replaceable components:

The Light-Processing Units, rollers and optics window can be replaced in-house, reducing the need for replacement print shipments.
