Formlabs Form 4 Complete Package – Professional SLA 3D Printing System

Bring a complete professional SLA 3D printing workflow in-house with the Formlabs Form 4 Complete Package.

Built around the fast and highly reliable Formlabs Form 4, the Complete Package adds automated washing with Form Wash V2, precision post-curing with Form Cure V2, the Form 4 Flex Build Platform, and a 1 or 3-year Form 4 Pro Service Plan.

The result is an integrated workflow that takes parts from digital model through printing, washing, curing, and final use with less manual handling and fewer separate equipment purchases.

Designed for engineering, product development, manufacturing, education, research, and professional production environments, the Form 4 Complete Package is an excellent choice for organizations that want a ready-to-deploy professional resin 3D printing system.

A Complete Formlabs SLA Workflow

The Form 4 Complete Package combines the major stages of professional resin 3D printing into one coordinated ecosystem:

Prepare → Print → Remove → Wash → Cure → Finish

Formlabs hardware, materials, and software are designed to work together, helping simplify training and day-to-day operation while providing repeatable results across a wide variety of applications.

Formlabs Form 4

At the centre of the package is the Formlabs Form 4, a professional SLA 3D printer powered by Formlabs Low Force Display™ (LFD) technology.

The system uses a high-power 405 nm backlight and precision Light Processing Unit to cure an entire layer simultaneously, providing fast print speeds that remain largely independent of how many parts are placed on the build platform.

With a 200 × 125 × 210 mm build volume, 50 μm pixel size, and print speeds of up to 100 mm per hour, Form 4 is designed to combine throughput with fine detail, smooth surfaces, and dimensional accuracy.

Key Form 4 Features

• 200 × 125 × 210 mm build volume
• 50 μm XY pixel size
• 25–200 μm layer thickness
• Up to 100 mm/hour print speed
• Low Force Display™ print engine
• Automatic resin dispensing
• Integrated 5 MP camera
• Remote monitoring through Formlabs Dashboard
• Extensive Formlabs engineering resin ecosystem
• Third-party 405 nm materials available through Open Material Mode

Form 4 achieved a 98.7% print success rate in independent testing, making reliability one of the defining characteristics of the platform.

Form 4 Flex Build Platform

The Complete Package includes the Form 4 Flex Build Platform instead of the standard rigid Build Platform included with the Basic Package.

Its flexible build surface helps make part removal faster and easier, reducing the need to pry finished parts from the platform with removal tools.

For organizations running the printer frequently, easier part removal can help reduce operator time between print jobs and streamline production workflows.

Automated Washing with Form Wash V2

After printing, SLA parts need to be washed to remove uncured resin from their surfaces.

The Form Wash V2 automates this process using a magnetically coupled impeller to circulate washing solvent around the printed parts.

Parts can be washed directly on the Form 4 build platform or placed into the included wash basket.

Once the wash cycle is complete, the system raises the parts out of the solvent so they can drain and dry without remaining submerged.

Form Wash V2 Highlights

• Automated SLA part washing
• Compatible with the Form 4 build platform
• Wash basket for loose parts
• Magnetically coupled solvent agitation
• Automatic lifting after the wash cycle
• 14.4 L wash bucket
• Maximum part size of approximately 200 × 145 × 195 mm
• Included hydrometer and platform mounts

The Complete Package also includes a Solvent Pump to help manage washing solvent as part of the post-processing workflow.

Fast Post-Curing with Form Cure V2

Proper UV post-curing is essential for Formlabs SLA materials to achieve their intended final mechanical properties.

The Form Cure V2 120V combines controlled heat with 405 nm UV light to deliver fast and consistent post-curing.

Compared with the previous-generation Form Cure, Form Cure V2 provides substantially greater UV output, faster heating, and a larger curing chamber.

General-purpose Formlabs materials can be post-cured in as little as 60 seconds, while engineering materials can often be cured in less than 15 minutes depending on the selected resin and validated cure settings.

Form Cure V2 Highlights

• 48 multi-directional 405 nm LEDs
• Up to 100 °C chamber temperature
• 235 mm rotating glass turntable
• Maximum part height of approximately 245 mm
• Validated material-specific curing presets
• Fast convective heating
• Designed to accommodate any part printed on Form 4

Simply select the appropriate Formlabs material preset and Form Cure V2 automatically applies the validated time and temperature settings.

Form 4 Pro Service Plan

The Complete Package includes a Form 4 Pro Service Plan, providing additional protection and support for a professional production environment.

Formlabs Pro Service Plan benefits include:

• Hardware warranty coverage
• Coverage for supported Form Wash and Form Cure equipment
• Replacement parts
• Express Replacement Service
• Accident coverage
• Priority phone and email support
• Training resources
• Live expert Q&A support

For businesses that rely on their printer for engineering, prototyping, or production, this additional service coverage helps reduce the risk and disruption associated with unexpected equipment downtime.

Fast Professional SLA Printing

Form 4 is designed to significantly shorten the time between CAD model and finished physical part.

Most typical Form 4 prints can be completed in under two hours, while compatible materials and settings can achieve print speeds of up to 100 mm per hour.

Because the entire layer is exposed at once, printing one part or filling the build platform with multiple parts has relatively little impact on overall print time.

This makes Form 4 particularly effective for:

• Rapid design iterations
• Batch production
• Engineering prototypes
• Manufacturing aids
• Short-run production
• Same-day functional parts

Accuracy and Surface Quality

Form 4 combines a 50 μm pixel size with pre-tuned anti-aliasing to produce detailed parts with smooth surfaces and precise features.

Typical XY dimensional tolerances are:

• 1–30 mm features: ±0.15%, lower limit ±0.02 mm
• 31–80 mm features: ±0.20%, lower limit ±0.06 mm
• 81–150 mm features: ±0.30%, lower limit ±0.15 mm

This makes Form 4 suitable for applications involving mating components, functional assemblies, presentation models, tooling, patterns, fixtures, and precision prototypes.

Extensive Formlabs Resin Ecosystem

Form 4 supports a wide selection of Formlabs professional SLA materials covering applications from visual prototyping to demanding engineering use.

Material categories include:

• General-purpose resins
• Tough and durable materials
• Rigid materials
• Flexible and elastic resins
• High-temperature materials
• Flame-retardant materials
• Silicone
• Ceramic
• Castable materials
• Specialty engineering resins

Third-party 405 nm photopolymer materials can also be used through Formlabs Open Material Mode.

This broad material ecosystem allows a single Form 4 system to serve many departments and applications within an organization.

PreForm Software

Form 4 uses Formlabs PreForm for print preparation.

PreForm helps simplify the process of moving from CAD file to finished print with tools for:

• Automatic part orientation
• Automatic support generation
• Build-platform layout
• Live printability checks
• Material selection
• Layer and print-setting selection
• Sending jobs directly to the printer

Formlabs Dashboard can also be used for remote monitoring, printer management, and print-history tracking.
