Formlabs Fuse 1+ SLS Printer
The Fuse 1+ 30W brings production-ready SLS printing to your benchtop. Affordable and compact, the Fuse 1+ 30W delivers industrial power in a small footprint with effective powder containment, zero waste printing, and easy setup. With Formlabs’ Fuse 1+ 30W, you’ll be producing strong, flexible, industrial quality parts on time and on budget.
Description
Fuse 1+ 30W
Take control of your design and production process with Formlabs fastest, and most powerful SLS printer yet.
Formlabs has taken it’s popular flagship SLS printer, the Fuse 1, and made groundbreaking advancements to create the new Fuse 1+ 30W – the next iteration in the Fuse Series SLS Ecosystem.
Save Time
A more powerful laser and enhanced scanning speed delivers parts at up to two times the rate as previous generations. Add a second removable build chamber to start a new print within 1-2 hours after your first production round finishes. Designers can now go from design to finished part as quickly as overnight.
Save Money
The advanced packing algorithm and improved refresh rates of the Fuse 1+ 30W results in an entirely circular workflow. The Automatic powder mixing in the Fuse Sift dispenses and mixes new and used powder automatically. All of your powder will be used to create parts – with little to no waste.
Save Energy
You will find the same reliable, user-friendly workflow that the Fuse 1 has become known for – allowing anyone on your team to print strong, industrial-quality parts faster and more easily than ever before. Paired with the free PreForm print prep software, you will be producing more and working less.
Fuse Sift
The Fuse Sift is a safe, efficient powder recovery system for the Fuse Series. This easy-to-use, all-in-one station combines part extraction, powder recovery, storage, and mixing in a single free-standing device, for the most functionality in a single device available on the SLS market.
Compact, enclosed system
Negative air pressure system keeps powder inside while enabling open access and easy cleanup.
Automatic powder mixing
Fuse Sift will dispense and mix used and new powder automatically so you can reduce waste and control your powder supply.
Nonstop printing
Reduce downtime by transferring modular build chambers and powder cartridges between the Fuse 1 and Fuse Sift for a nonstop, cyclical workflow.
Materials
Nylon 12 Powder
Balancing strength and detail, Nylon 12 Powder is a highly capable material for both functional prototyping and end-use production of complex assemblies and durable parts with high environmental stability. Our Nylon 12 Powder is specifically developed for use on the Fuse 1.
Nylon 12 Powder is ideal for:
- High-performance prototyping
- Small batch manufacturing
- Permanent jigs, fixtures, and tooling
- Biocompatible, sterilizable parts*
* Material properties may vary based on part design and manufacturing practices. It is the manufacturer’s responsibility to validate the suitability of the printed parts for the intended use.
Nylon 12 GF Powder
A glass-filled material with enhanced stiffness and heat resistance to endure demanding manufacturing conditions. Ideal for applications where structural rigidity and thermal stability are critical. Nylon 12 GF Powder is specifically developed for use on the Fuse 1.
Nylon 12 GF Powder is ideal for:
- Robust jigs and fixtures
- Parts undergoing sustained loading
- Replacement parts
- Threads and sockets
- High-temperature applications
Nylon 11 Powder
For ductile, robust parts, Nylon 11 Powder is Formlabs’ higher performance, bio-based nylon material for functional prototyping and small batch production. Nylon 11 Powder is suitable for printing parts that need to bend or take impact.
Applications include:
- Impact-resistant prototypes, jigs, and fixtures
- Snaps, clips, and hinges
- Thin-walled ducts and enclosures
- Orthotics and prosthetics*
*Material properties may vary based on part design and manufacturing practices. It is the manufacturer’s responsibility to validate the suitability of the printed parts for the intended purpose.
Nylon 11 CF Powder
Formlabs highest strength material reinforced with carbon fiber. Nylon 11 CF Powder enables end-use production of automotive, aerospace, and other highly rugged applications.
Application include:
- Replacement and spare alternatives for metal parts
- Tooling, jigs, fixtures
- High-impact equipment
- Functional composite prototypes
*Material properties may vary based on part design and manufacturing practices. It is the manufacturer’s responsibility to validate the suitability of the printed parts for the intended use.
