Formlabs debuts new SLS 3D printer
- July 14, 2022
- Product Release
- Additive Manufacturing
The Fuse 1+ 30W printer is the latest SLS (selective laser sintering) printer from Formlabs. It reportedly builds polymer parts up to two times faster than the first-generation Fuse 1, introduced two years ago. Other system upgrades include a new, more powerful laser and higher scanning speed, improved powder handling, and an optional inert-nitrogen environment.
During setup and printing, an intuitive touch UI walks the operator through every step. The touchscreen displays a livestream of the print bed, letting the user watch each new layer take shape. Viewing can be done remotely, too.
Currently, Formlabs offers four types of nylon for the machine: 11, 11 CF (carbon fiber), 12, and 12 CF. Plans call for additional materials to be available in the future.
