Description
Formlabs Form 3L
With a large build volume of 33.5 × 20 × 30 cm (13.2 × 7.9 × 11.8 in),
you can print full-scale bulky prototypes or detailed models.
Take control of large-format prototyping and bring your biggest ideas to life with the Form 3L, a cost-effective large scale 3D printer that doesn’t compromise on the details.
Form 3L
A Large Format 3D Printer Compact Enough for the Office and Robust Enough for the Factory Floor
Take control of large-format prototyping and bring your biggest ideas to life with the Form 3L, a cost-effective large scale 3D printer that doesn’t compromise on the details.
Form 3L is now succeeded by Form 4L, our next-generation MSLA 3D printer, which improves upon its foundation in every possible way.
Big Parts, Big Ideas
With a large build volume of 33.5 × 20 × 30 cm (13.2 × 7.9 × 11.8 in),
you can print full-scale bulky prototypes or detailed models.
Stop outsourcing large-scale prints
Work faster with a large format 3D printer that’s versatile enough to bring large scale fabrication in-house.
Life-sized prints for larger-than-life ideas
The Form 3L is large enough to print human-scale models, like a prototype of a helmet that’s ready to try on.
Perfectionism that scales
Two precision Light Processing Units inside this large resin printer achieve consistent accuracy and detail across the entire build platform.

High-resolution touchscreen interface:
A 5.5” interactive full-color display minimizes error and eliminates the need for constant monitoring.
Automated print setup:
Tested over millions of prints, our free print preparation software, PreForm, automatically suggests optimal orientation, supports, and layout, with the ability to manually refine as needed.
Continuously evolving:
We believe the best products grow better over time, and we’re committed to continually evolving our hardware through software improvements.
Cloud monitoring:
Remotely monitor and manage your fleet of large format 3D printers with the online Dashboard.
Fast-printing material:
Draft Resin balances detail and speed to save time on bulky prototypes and enable quick iteration.
In-field repairs:
The Light Processing Units, rollers, optics window, and other components can be replaced in-house to ensure 24/7 uptime.
Smooth surface finish:
Models printed on the Form 3L resemble polished injection-molded parts and can reach high translucency, for realistic looks-like prototyping.
Consistent precision:
A system of lasers and mirrors ensures uniform print quality, for an XY resolution of 25 microns across the entire build platform.
Advanced materials:
Each Formlabs material comes with optimized print settings to guarantee industry-leading print success and reliability, as well as standout mechanical, thermal, or biocompatible properties.
Total freedom with Open Platform
Enhance your printer’s versatility with certified third-party materials, customizable print settings, or the ability to experiment with any unvalidated 405 nm photopolymer resin (optional, paid license).
Switch materials in minutes.
Avoid the hassle and mess of purging materials with our swappable cartridge system, cross-compatible with other Formlabs SLA printers.
Automatic resin dispensing.
Our automated resin system dispenses resin as parts print. The Form 3L holds two cartridges of resin to avoid mid-print interruptions.
