Main Features
User Replaceable Optical Module
Smart, redesigned optical module allows users to easily replace the core laser module. Reduce downtime, stock backup parts, and allow for future optical module upgrades.
Perpendicular Laser Motion Control x 2
The Form 3BL’s state of the art dual laser system now stays perfectly perpendicular with the build surface ensuring edge to edge consistency at any build volume. Increased spot and overall surface quality.
Low Force Peel
Completely redesigned Peel system reduces peel forces. This allows for more reliable printing of difficult parts, large layers and dramatically improves part quality.
Even Better Print Quality
The Form 3BL revolves around part quality, with many laser, peel and support improvements, part quality is more consistent and is even more crisp, beautiful and detailed than ever before.
Smaller Supports Required
Cleanup even easier now with the new low force peel technology. Because of lower forces on the part throughout the print, supports and touch points can be a lot smaller resulting in a much easier post-cleanup process. Less blemishes, less labor, less material used.
Longer Tray Life
Form 3BL’s Resin tanks now last 20 times longer than standard Form 2 tanks so you can keep churning out parts without worry.
General SLA Features
Unparalleled Surface Quality
SLA printing produces the highest quality prints. With parts that come off the machine looking like they’re injection molded. Layer lines are minimal, details incredible. From detailed jewelry casting masters to dental crowns, the Form 3 Line is unmatched in part quality, detail and cleanliness.
Reliable
With a high success rate (90%+) You don’t need to worry about failed prints the next day. Run the machine 24/7 on production or prototyping tasks. All can be done on one machine without reconfiguring or calibrating.
Ease of Use
Resins are thoroughly tested by Formlabs and all settings are pre-set and optimized so you don’t need to tweak any settings. Simply choose your resin, resolution, and print. Everything else is taken care of behind the scenes.
Future Proof
With drop-in modules and constantly evolving library of resins, the Form 3BL is the platform in which the future 3D printing will happen. From niche and industry-specific resin like Castable and High temp to experimental resins like Ceramic and Colors, you can be sure there will be a steady stream of new developments on the horizon.
Resin Compatibility
Make use of Formlabs’ already impressive resin library from day 1. Over 15 general and niche application resins. From dental, high temperature to castable resins, all with one system.
Certified
The Form 3BL is CSA Compliant and comes with a cUL marking
The Form 3 is a part of a 3D printing ecosystem that’s easy to learn and use and requires little intervention or maintenance. The Form Wash L agitates and soaks 3D printed parts in solvent (IPA, TPM) and then removes them from the bath to dry. The Form Cure L exposes 3D printed parts to the appropriate levels of light and heat to optimize material properties.

Post-curing SLA 3D printed parts helps them reach their maximum mechanical properties and achieve peak dimensional accuracy. The Form Cure L uses two 500W heaters and high-powered UV lights alongside a reflective inner cavity and rotating turntable to provide a consistent, high-intensity cure. Whether it’s for large prints or high throughput production of smaller parts, Form Cure L can be used with all of your Formlabs SLA 3D printers.
All SLA 3D printed parts require washing to remove residual resin. Form Wash L automates this process, leaving you with smooth, clean, high-quality parts every time. Once washing completes, parts are lifted out of the solvent to air dry, avoiding over-soaked, warped prints. The embedded solvent monitor helps you maintain peak cleaning performance by notifying you when it’s time to replace your solvent. Use Form Wash L with all of your Formlabs SLA 3D printers. Wash one Form 3L build platform or two Form 3 build platforms with the included build platform adapter.
