Formlabs Fuse X1 Features

Build Big

Produce full-scale production-quality parts in a massive build volume or run production builds at over 30% packing density to manufacture thousands of end-use parts in days, not weeks.

  • 330 × 330 × 565 mm build volume.

Low Part Cost

Fuse X1 delivers up to 50% lower part cost than legacy powder bed fusion systems in less than half the floor space. Fuse X1 is cost-competitive with injection moulding for tens of thousands of parts.

Productive

With 30%+ packing density and a 61.5L build volume, the Fuse X1 fits more parts in a single build than competing industrial SLS and MJF systems, adding up to thousands more parts per week.

  • 3x throughput vs. Industrial Competitors

Intuitive and Reliable

Fuse X1 fits through a standard door, doesn’t require facility retrofit, and installs and prints on day one. An intuitive touchscreen guides you, while the build unit enables 5-minute changeovers.

Formlabs Fuse X1 Benefits

Formlabs Preform Software

Simple, fast print set up

With Formlabs Preform print preparation software to import STL or OBJ part files, estimate print times, orient and arrange models, monitor your printers and upload job files.

PreForm's part packing algorithms can automatically arrange many models in a build to maximize the packing density, reduce print time, and limit waste.

Reliable Printing

SLS 3D Printing works by fusing nylon powder layer by layer.

You can create interconnecting, complex designs with no need for support structures as the unused powder supports the parts during printing.

The Fuse X1 offers competitive mechanical properties and surface finish without the prohibitive cost or hassle.

Complex SLS parts

Adaptive Thermal Control & Print Intlligence

Adaptive Thermal Control enables unlimited packing freedom, and exceptional part quality by delivering, maintaining, and sintering powder at an incredibly stable temperature.

Print Intelligence uses AI-powered computer vision to isolate and prevent failures, maximizing uptime so you get great parts on time every time.

Solution tout-en-un pour le recyclage et la récupération des poudres

The Fuse Sift X1, combines part extraction, powder recovery, storage, and mixing in a single device.

Fabriquer des pièces entièrement fonctionnelles offrant un taux de recyclage de la poudre élevé et compétitif, afin de réduire les déchets et le coût unitaire.

Complete 3D Print & Post Processing Solution

Fuse X1 post-processing is a multi-step workflow designed to extract 3D printed parts from a "powder cake," reclaim unused material, and finish the part surface. This process is primarily managed through the Fuse Sift and the Fuse Blast:

Fuse X1 Printer

Fuse X1 is a large-format industrial SLS 3D printer its massive build volume and high packing density enable same-day large parts and 3x the throughput compared to competing platforms. AI-powered Print Intelligence monitors jobs from first layer to final part to reduce failures.

Setup takes about an hour, print-to-print changeover takes minutes, and the same end-to-end workflow handles extraction, powder reclaiming, and finishing — moving parts from printed to polished in as little as 15 minutes.

Formlabs Fuse X1 Sift

Fuse Sift X1

The Fuse Sift is used as part of the post-processing stage of the SLS process. Designed to be easy-to-use, the Sifts modular design simplifies the process of using the build chamber for part extraction, powder reclamation and refilling.

Aucun autre système SLS disponible sur le marché n'offre un tel niveau de fonctionnalités sur une seule machine. Un système de dépression maintient la poudre à l'intérieur du Sift, garantissant ainsi un espace de travail propre et bien rangé.

Formlabs Fuse X1 Blast

Fuse Blast

Obtenez des pièces d'aspect professionnel et uniforme, propres au toucher, plus rapidement et plus facilement que jamais grâce à Fuse Blast, une solution de nettoyage et de polissage entièrement automatisée et facile à utiliser, destinée au post-traitement des pièces imprimées en 3D par SLS.

Streamline your post-processing workflow, empowering you to fully clean a whole build chamber of printed parts in as little as 15 minutes and drastically reducing labour time and cost.

Formlabs Fuse X1 SLS 3D Printing Process

Étape 1 du processus SLS

1. Prepare

Auto-pack, optimize, and organize in PreForm: Orient, hollow, or label models, estimate print times, and automatically pack parts for optimized density, reducing print time and limiting waste. Import STL, OBJ, 3MF, or models directly from a wide range of CAD applications.

Étape 2 du processus SLS

2. Imprimer

Print large parts in hours, not days: Most large builds complete under 24 hours, with same-day large parts in 5 hours. Print Intelligence detects and masks anomalies in real time to protect yield.

Swap Fuse X1

3. Swap

5-minute print changeovers with the Fuse X1 Build Unit: Roll one build unit out, roll the next one in, with blind-mate power and data connectors. Insulation allows natural cooling inside the unit, so the printer can start the next job.

Étape 3 du processus SLS

4. Unpack

Hands-off powder recovery with Fuse Sift X1: Integrated compressed air, sealed glovebox, and parts hatch keep breakout clean and fast. Capacity for 3 to 5 full builds of used powder, with automatic powder transport to the Mix Kit.

Étape 4 du processus SLS

5. Clean

Clean with Fuse Blast: New 400 mm Fuse Blast Large Tumbler Basket fits 2-3× Fuse build volumes and 50% more parts per cycle.

Polissage des pièces SLS Formlabs

6. Polish

Polish with Fuse Blast: Optional polishing system upgrade delivers smooth, semi-gloss, dye-ready surfaces.

Hands-off Workflow

Fuse Sift X1 turns post-print into a clean, hands-off workflow.

An integrated powder transport system moves used powder from the Sift X1 to the Mix Kit automatically, and integrated compressed air inlet and gun that helps you recover powder from parts in seconds, replacing slow manual brushing.

The sealed glovebox keeps operators and the workspace clean at any build size, while a built-in parts hatch sends broken-out parts straight to a transfer bin to free up the bench. With capacity for 3 to 5 full builds of used powder, Fuse Sift X1 keeps high-volume operations moving without bottlenecking on cleanup.

Powder Transport System

Fuse X1 Vacuum Conveyor is the building block of the powder transport system. One unit on the Fuse X1 loads refreshed powder into the printer, and a second unit moves sifted reclaimed powder from the Fuse Sift X1 to the Mix Kit or mixing setup of your choice.

Additional vacuum conveyors can be used to transport and manage powder as desired to minimize bottlenecks, such as storing powder in large format containers. Each Vacuum Conveyor ships with mounting hardware and a vacuum hose. One Vacuum Conveyor is included with the Fuse X1 and one with the Fuse Sift X1.
