Formlabs Form 4 Features
Low Force Display Printing
Form 4's speed is driven by Formlabs' new Low Force Display™ Print Engine, a powerful combination of ultra-high power LEDs, collimating lenses, optical filters, and a robust liquid crystal display.
Together they cure each layer of resin rapidly - regardless of part size or quantity. With tight tolerances, parts printed in every resin on Form 4 will match your design parameters, every time.
Variety of Materials to Suit any Need
Form 4 combines a new print engine with updates to the Formlabs materials library - 23 unique resins on Form 4 and 37 on Form 4B available at launch - as well as new accessories and post-processing solutions, and an improved user experience.
These updates reaffirm that Formlabs' resin 3D printing ecosystem is the most powerful tool available for any professional to turn their ideas into reality.
The Printer that Grows with your Business
The Form 4 printer is compatible with all the consumable components that are used on the Form 3. So if you are looking to upgrade, the process has never been easier and less wasteful.
The Form 4 has been designed with many other features to improve usability, such as; easy to use touchscreen interface, adaptive layer height printing, remote printing, tear away supports and many more.

Formlabs Form 4 Accessories
Form 4 Resin Tank
Low Force Display (LFD)™ 3D printing uses a flexible yet strong dual-layer film tank for consistent, high-quality prints. Every resin tank includes a reusable lid, making it easy to stack tanks and store resin outside of the machine.
With a separate tank for each individual resin color or type, switching materials is as easy as sliding in a new tank.
Form 4 Build Platform
Form 4 Build Platform has a durable aluminum surface. A spare Build Platform can speed up your workflow and allow for nonstop printing, whether you're changing resins or starting a new print while you remove your part.
