The Formlabs Form Studio Wash+Cure is an all-in-one, compact, and highly affordable post-processing solution engineered to handle both the washing and curing steps for your 3D resin prints. Designed to streamline your desktop 3D printing workflow, the Form Studio Wash+Cure delivers clean, fully cured, and high-strength parts without requiring separate, dedicated machinery.
Whether you are producing visual prototypes, functional mechanical parts, or biocompatible models, the Form Studio Wash+Cure ensures optimal material properties, crisp surface details, and a tack-free finish every time.
Availability & Lead Time Notice: Please note that the Form Studio Wash+Cure currently has an extended lead time. The estimated shipping timeline is approximately 4 weeks. Orders will be fulfilled in the sequence they are received.
Key Operating Modes
1. Automated Washing Mode
All liquid SLA and MSLA prints require post-print washing to remove uncured liquid resin. The Form Studio Wash+Cure uses dynamic solvent agitation to circulate liquid around complex geometries and tight internal channels for thorough, high-efficiency cleaning.
-
Drain-and-Dry Design: Once the washing cycle finishes, the internal basket raises parts to clear out of the solvent bath. This lets parts air-dry cleanly and prevents over-soaking, swelling, or print warping.
2. Precision Curing Mode
Post-curing completes the polymer chemical reaction initiated by the printer's light engine, unlocking the full potential of your technical resins.
-
405 nm Light Engine: Uses focused 405 nm light array technology to maximize cross-linking.
-
Enhanced Material Properties: Post-curing significantly boosts ultimate tensile strength, fracture toughness, heat deflection temperature (HDT), and creep resistance.
-
Flawless Finish: Leaves parts with a harder, smooth, and non-tacky surface ready for immediate handling, testing, or painting.
Solvent Compatibility
The Form Studio Wash+Cure is built with chemical-resistant materials and supports a wide variety of cleaning agents:
-
Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA): High-evaporation solvent for fast drying and optimal clarity.
-
Tripropylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether (TPM): Non-flammable, low-odor alternative solvent for low-VOC environments.
-
Formlabs Resin Washing Solution: Specifically formulated, non-flammable cleaning solution.
