Why do I need a special, more expensive printer to use Formlabs resins for biocompatible applications?
Formlabs is committed to meeting the demands of the dental industry and the growing needs of this industry. Additional resources, testing, and validation have brought about the development of this separate platform. We have invested significantly in a dedicated certified resin manufacturing facility, hired an experienced industry team to drive development and better support customers, and spent significant time validating workflows ahead of settings releases. This concerted effort to specialize in dental has necessitated the price increase.
As part of our ongoing commitment to the dental industry, we continue to increase access to the best solutions for digital dentistry. For example, Formlabs Surgical Guide resin is the first Formlabs resin for biocompatible applications to be produced at our own facility, delivering excellent performance and consistently, while also bringing the cost per part down.
