Form 1 in Production


Posted on February 06, 2013 by Luke Winston

Form Fans,

Our shared vision of low-cost, high resolution 3D printing is closer than ever. The Form 1 has entered full production!

Over the last few months, we have assembled our supply chain while carefully vetting even the smallest parts that make up the Form 1. We are ecstatic to say that after multiple rounds of improvements, component testing, and revisions, we used Kickstarter funds last month to order the tens of thousands of parts (like the displays below) needed to build more than 1,000 printers. As components continue to arrive, the Form Team is readying our production lines to get moving as fast as possible on our US factory floor.

Our first priority is obvious: rigorously test the first small batch of Form 1s so that you receive a quality product. After that, we will set exact delivery dates, but we are on schedule to fulfill the large majority of Kickstarter printers by the end of April.

In the meantime, Form 1 and Gyro Cube backers, please keep a close eye on the e-mail account you used to pledge on Kickstarter. You will soon receive a personalized coupon to register your shipping information at the Form Store.

As always, we appreciate your patience while our team works day and night to build the best desktop 3D printer out there. Please stay tuned!

-The Form Team

I can’t wait folks! I keep on walking around my apartment saying “if I only had a 3D printer I’d fix that”

Great! I’m really getting nervous from waiting. I want to hold that baby in my arms.

Is there a single person who has a functioning Form 1 printer?
I would like to test print a couple of highly detailed models to see if the resolution is fine enough before I purchase one myself. I’m willing to pay, of course. Please contact me!

Excitement is building – although I still haven’t received an email wanting to confirm my shipping details….

As an engineer I am really looking forward for this product. Still, one think holds me back from placing an order and thats the patent law suit from 3D Systems, any news on that so far?

Remember you have a friend and a Distribuitor of your Form 1 in COLOMBIA, South America. I Bought mine from Kickstarter!

Is it March yet? Winters in Canada can be long. Last October till now seems like the longest winter I have ever had to endure. As a Formlabs investor I can say that not only are those of us who have supported Formlabs eager to receive our printers, but there are literally thousands of people waiting to see just what we do with them.

Let the revolution begin! :-)
