Formlabs launches Form 4, switching its resin printers to LCD-based printing
Formlabs launched Form 4, replacing laser scanning with its Low Force Display engine using high-power LEDs and an LCD mask to cure each layer at once. Formlabs said Form 4 prints two to four times faster than earlier Form printers, with most parts done in under two hours.
- Form 4 uses Low Force Display engine combining high-power LEDs with masking lenses for instant layer curing
- Achieves two to four times faster printing than previous Form Series printers, up to 100 mm/hour
- Most parts complete in under two hours across all materials
- Includes 50 µm XY resolution, 30% larger build volume, expanded materials library with 23+ resins at launch
