A reliability-led story buyers understand immediately when evaluating SLA.
Many day-to-day parts can be reviewed, revised, and rerun within one workday.
SLA vs FDM
Get more done with most production parts in under 2 hours.
Form 4 helps teams compress iteration cycles, fit checks, and production support work without waiting overnight for the next part.
2h 49minForm 4
Benchmark shown using representative production geometry, not marketing-only demo files.
37% faster than closest competitor
LED Light Bar and Mount
Typical production part with 53 mm print height at 100 um layers. Faster iterations mean design, verify, and rerun without waiting until tomorrow.
1h 56minForm 4
A faster SLA cycle helps product teams review feel, finish, and fit in the same design sprint.
High-detail iterations in one workday
Game Controller Housing
Ergonomic product shells and faceplates benefit from cleaner surfaces, tighter detail, and less sanding between rounds.
2h 14minForm 4
Ideal when the team is balancing small features, moving interfaces, and repeated test builds.
Fine geometry without slow outsourcing
Robotic Finger
Small articulated parts need repeatable detail, dependable surface quality, and enough speed to test multiple revisions without losing momentum.
2h 07minForm 4
This use case fits teams that need quick engineering feedback loops and better surface finish than a rough FDM part.
Short-run engineering parts, same-day
Tower Cap
Engineering teams care about support removal, visible surfaces, and whether several validation parts can be completed before the next meeting.
1h 43minForm 4
A strong fit for electronics teams prototyping jigs, clips, and assembly aids where tolerance matters.
Precision where tolerance matters
Connector Fixture
Small fixtures, alignment tools, and electronics housings benefit when resolution, dimensional consistency, and turnaround all improve together.
The SLA workflow
Four steps to production-ready parts
From PreForm to Wash and Cure, the full workflow is built for consistent output, cleaner handling, and faster operator onboarding.
Step 1 Prepare
Step 1 Prepare
PreForm software
Prepare: smarter setup before you hit print
Every successful print starts before the lid closes. PreForm handles orientation, supports, and printability checks so customers spend less time guessing and more time producing useful parts.
- Smart auto-orientation minimizes support marks on visible surfaces.
- Support generation is fast enough for new operators and flexible enough for experienced users.
- Printability checks catch weak geometry and setup issues before resin and time are wasted.
- A guided software flow makes onboarding much easier for multi-user teams.
Step 2 Print
Step 2 Print
Form 4 platform
Print: speed with industrial consistency
Form 4 shortens the design loop. Customers feel that most when fit checks, engineering reviews, and same-day reprints all happen faster.
- Up to 100 mm/hr positioning supports real throughput discussions.
- Closed-cartridge handling keeps day-to-day operation cleaner.
- Stable output helps teams move from occasional use to frequent production support.
- Shared status visibility helps multi-user environments stay organised.
Step 3 Wash
Step 3 Wash
Form Wash
Wash: cleaner handling and repeatable finishing
Controlled washing improves finish consistency and makes the full SLA workflow easier to adopt in offices, labs, and shared production spaces.
- Automated timing helps standardise part cleanup across operators.
- Less variation means more predictable surface quality from batch to batch.
- Dedicated wash hardware is easier to explain in safety and procurement conversations.
- Reduced improvisation means less training overhead after installation.
Step 4 Cure
Step 4 Cure
Form Cure
Cure: lock in final material performance
The cure stage is where the process starts feeling production-ready. Strength, stability, and final feel all improve when finishing is controlled instead of improvised.
- UV post-curing helps parts reach intended material performance.
- Repeatable finishing makes engineering and customer-facing parts more credible.
- A defined cure stage helps teams document and repeat the workflow.
- The finished process looks professional in front of buyers and internal stakeholders.
