FastForm DeskFab X1 - a 3D printer that prints with metal

Transform your in-house manufacturing with the 3D printer SLM FastForm DeskFab X1, the premier all-in-one desktop SLM metal 3D printer designed to bring industrial capabilities to your dental lab, workshop, or R&D department. This compact yet powerful machine makes high-quality metal 3D printing more accessible, affordable, and user-friendly than ever before. By consolidating the entire workflow—from printing to powder management—into a single, intelligent ecosystem, the DeskFab X1 is the ultimate tool for producing precision metal parts with unmatched efficiency.

A Revolution in Compact, All-in-One Design

The FastForm DeskFab X1 is a true paradigm shift in metal printing, integrating 3D printing, powder sieving, and dust management into a single closed-loop system. With an incredibly compact footprint of just 650 x 640 x 800 mm, it occupies less than 0.4 m² of space, enabling it to fit seamlessly into any modern laboratory or workshop without needing an industrial facility.

Zero Filter Maintenance and Lifetime Savings

Engineered for maximum productivity and minimal upkeep, the DeskFab X1 features a permanent filter with a 30,000-hour service life. This innovative, tool-free design eliminates the need for expensive and frequent filter replacements, ensuring zero installation errors and providing a lifetime of maintenance-free operation.

Streamlined One-Click Printing

Metal 3D printing is made effortless with the DeskFab X1's intelligent automation. The entire process, from importing a design to final path planning, is streamlined. With powerful AI and one-click printing functionality, you can go from a scan to a print-ready design in as little as 5 minutes, dramatically simplifying the workflow and minimizing the need for specialized training.

Versatile Multi-Material Capability

Unleash your manufacturing potential with a wide range of materials. The DeskFab X1 utilizes a modular cartridge system, allowing you to easily and safely switch between different metal powders like Cobalt-Chrome (CoCr), Titanium (Ti), and more. This flexibility ensures you always have the right material for any application, from dental prosthetics to industrial components.

Advanced Printing Technology

Exclusive LFPT™ for Superior Efficiency

The DeskFab X1 is equipped with FastForm's exclusive LFPT™ (Laser Follow Powder Technology). This cutting-edge innovation optimizes the laser's path to follow the powder deposition, boosting printing efficiency by an incredible 20% and ensuring faster, more reliable results.

Simple and Safe Installation

Get up and running in no time. The DeskFab X1 features a mistake-proof installation process with 4-color coded conduits, ensuring that all connections are made correctly. Its user-friendly design and automated processes make it one of the most accessible metal 3D printers on the market today.

Powerful and Intuitive FastForm Software

The DeskFab X1 is driven by a proprietary software suite, developed over 8 years to streamline the entire scan-to-print workflow for both dental and industrial applications.

FastLayer Slicing Software

FastLayer is an advanced slicing software that automates the file preparation process. With one-click typesetting and path planning, it is optimized for all major 3D file types (STL, OBJ, STEP, etc.). The software includes a precision parameter database for dental CoCr and Titanium alloys and is open for customized parameter development for various metal powders, including Stainless Steel and Aluminum, with layer thicknesses from 20-100μm.

FastFab Control Software

FastFab offers a simple, logical user interface that is incredibly easy to learn. Its streamlined workflow makes it effortless for users to get started, with proficiency achievable in just 5-10 minutes.

An integrated camera allows for safe, real-time monitoring of the printing process without any risk from laser radiation.

Meanwhile, comprehensive printing logs record all process data for easy troubleshooting and continuous quality improvement.
