Form Studio Wash+Cure
New

Form Studio Wash+Cure is an all-in-one, compact, and affordable post-processing unit that handles both washing and curing for your resin 3D prints.
Washing mode: All resin 3D printed parts need washing to remove residual resin. Form Studio Wash+Cure agitates IPA or alternative solvents around parts for thorough, efficient cleaning. When washing is done, simply raise the internal basket out of the solvent to let parts air dry and avoid over-soaking, warped prints.
Curing mode: Using 405 nm light, Form Studio Wash+Cure completes the chemical reaction started during printing. Post-curing boosts part strength, toughness, heat resistance, and creep resistance, while leaving a harder, less tacky surface.
Form Studio Wash+Cure is compatible with IPA, TPM, and Resin Washing Solution.

Fuse Blast High Capacity Kit

Scale your post-processing throughput with the Fuse Blast High Capacity Kit, a drop-in upgrade for Fuse Blast that processes over 50% more parts per cycle than the standard basket. It's the recommended configuration for Fuse X1 users and multi-Fuse 1 Series fleets running large, frequent batches.
A wider 400 mm opening makes loading and unloading easier and more ergonomic, while the added volume prevents the overcrowding that can damage parts mid-cycle. Swap it into your existing Fuse Blast in minutes, with no tools or machine modifications required.
Fuse Blast High Capacity Kit pairs the Large Tumbler Basket with an extra Fuse Blast Large Tumbler Basket Liner Kit, so high-volume users can replace the liner without any downtime waiting on a separate order.

Form Wash L V2

All SLA 3D printed parts require washing to remove residual resin. Form Wash L automatically cleans printed parts thoroughly and efficiently with IPA or alternative solvents.
Keep parts directly on the Build Platform as you transition them from the printer to Form Wash L, or remove parts and place them in the wash basket. Parts are precisely and thoroughly agitated in solvent with an impeller, getting every nook and cranny perfectly clean, automatically for the appropriate time. When washing completes, Form Wash automatically raises parts out of the solvent so they can air dry, avoiding over-soaked, warped prints.
Use Form Wash L with all of your Formlabs SLA 3D printers. Wash one Form 4L build platform or two Form 4 build platforms with the included build platform adapter.

FAQ
Post-processing is the final stage in the 3D printing workflow, encompassing steps that improve a part's aesthetics, mechanical properties, and overall performance to make it suitable for a wide range of applications.
Formlabs offers Form Wash and Form Cure for desktop resin printers, as well as Form Wash L and Form Cure L for large-format and high-volume production, all designed to streamline rinsing and post-curing.
SLS parts can be depowdered using the Fuse Sift, the automated Fuse Blast, or the manual Fuse Depowdering Kit, depending on your production volume and budget.
Options include media blasting with the Fuse Blast, vibratory tumbling for a matte to semi-gloss finish, or vapor smoothing for a glossy shell that also reaches internal channels and complex geometries.
Yes, both resin and SLS parts can be dyed with consumer-grade dyes, and painting is recommended when bright colors or precise color-matching are needed, with spray painting offering the most even coverage.
Coating processes such as electroplating, ceramic coating, powder coating, and polymer coating can significantly enhance strength, durability, UV resistance, and chemical resistance, sometimes matching or surpassing injection molded plastics or metals.
Ceramic coatings, such as those made by Cerakote, are applied as a thin polymer film with ceramic additives and are among the highest-performance finishing options, ideal for end-use parts requiring color matching, improved mechanical properties, and resistance to UV, corrosion, and chemicals.
Sanding, buffing, and polishing are recommended first steps that smooth edges, remove blemishes, and eliminate support marks, creating an ideal surface for painting, coating, or other secondary processes.
