Resin Pump - high volume resin feeding system

Resin Pump for large volume resin supply

The Formlabs Resin Pump is an accessory for the Form 3 series stereolithographic (SLA) 3D printers that continuously delivers 5 liters of resin through a pumping system directly into the resin reservoir of the 3D printer.

This is a great solution if your workshop, laboratory, or production facility prints large volumes of photopolymer parts. From now on, every user with consistent and reliable production volumes can plan in advance and reduce ongoing material costs.

• Compatible with printers: Form 3/3+, Form 3B/3B+, Form 3L/3BL.
• Available accessories: Maintenance Kit.
  

Resin Pump benefits

• Increases efficiency with less frequent cartridge changes - print up to 5 times longer.
• Minimizes labor costs due to less interaction with the printer.
• Saves on raw materials by purchasing large 5L resin cartridges at wholesale prices.
• Reduces waste by 86% - minimizes the hassle of disposing of empty cartridges.
• Reduced storage space for resin cartridges.

How it works

The Resin Pumping System consists of two components: a resin pump and a 5 liter resin container. The Resin Pump replaces the standard 1 liter resin cartridge in the back or side of the printer.

Each 5L container comes with a Resin Card that slides into the Resin Pump housing and tells the printer the contents of the external 5L container.

Formlabs continuous 3D printing

Continuous production only takes place when there is a sufficient amount of material available. The new Formlabs Resin Pumping System ensures that printers never run out of material while operators are not working.

The Fleet Control and Dashboard functions will alert operators when consumables are close to refilling, so they can always replace resin before leaving for the night. The system works with new resin cartridges with a 5-liter capacity. This provides multiple print jobs and days of productivity without switching, complemented by a resin pump for fast and efficient dispensing.

Uninterrupted 3D printing Formlabs

Formlabs introduces the Automation Ecosystem that improves desktop 3D printing and accelerates the implementation of your new ideas to life. The Automation Ecosystem is a solution including three new products: Form Auto, Fleet Control, and Resin Pumping System.

• Form Auto is a hardware extension for Form 3 3D printer series. Formlabs Form Auto engineered to automatically remove parts and start the next print. This enables 24/7 printing without user interaction, minimizes costs per part and saves labor up to 80%.
• Fleet Control activates new, advanced features within PreForm and Dashboard software that leverage automation and workflow optimization for advanced fleet management through centralized queue management and automatic printer assignment.
• Resin Pumping System seamlessly delivers 5L of resin through a pumping system, allowing printers to run continuously with 5x fewer cartridge changes.
