Form Cure (2nd Generation)

SLA Post-Curing Station

The Formlabs Form Cure is a professional post-curing solution designed to enhance the mechanical properties, accuracy, and surface finish of SLA 3D printed parts. It uses a combination of precise heat and 405 nm UV light to fully cure resin prints, ensuring optimal performance and mechanical stability. With validated material profiles, it integrates seamlessly into Formlabs' workflow, particularly for high-performance resins and medical-grade materials (with Form 4B).
