Title: Why Choose Formlabs 3D Printers?
1Why Choose Formlabs 3D Printers?
2Formlabs 3D printers have been designed with
affordability and quality in mind since the
companys 2011 launch. Their range has evolved
over the years from the Form 1 to the Form 2 and
now the latest iteration, the Form 3.
3So what distinguishes Formlabs 3D printers from
competitors? The companys first product was
entirely funded by a Kickstarter campaign. Their
overwhelming crowd fund-raising success confirmed
the widespread demand for affordable desktop SLA
(stereolithography apparatus) 3D printing
technology.
4The Form 2 printer followed in 2015, building on
the companys innovation with its automatic
cartridge system in place of the earlier manual
resin handling. This made the 3D printer cleaner
and easier to use, and therefore better suited to
professional environments.
5The Form 3 Formlabs series introduces a mobile
laser module which allows scalability of printed
parts, along with consistency of print quality
over the entire prints surface. Moreover, the
user can effectively micromanage the printing
process throughout, controlling every aspect via
the printers colour touchscreen and a computer
linked to it.
6With impressive print quality and a highly
affordable price tag compared to printers with
similar capabilities on the market, Formlabs
desktop 3D printer continue to be crowd-pleasers.
