FORMLABS MALAYSIA · MASKED SLA (MSLA) RESIN 3D PRINTER
Formlabs Form 4
Industrial speed in a desktop SLA 3D printer — most prints finished in under 2 hours, razor-sharp 50 µm details and parts that rival injection moulding, from a machine anyone can learn in 15 minutes.
Blazing fast — typical prints in under 2 hours, at up to 100 mm/hour
Sharpest details and smoothest surfaces at 50 µm XY pixel size, with ±0.15% XY accuracy
98.7% print success rate, measured by an independent third-party lab
23 Formlabs resins — rigid, tough, elastic, silicone, castable, high temp — plus Open Material Mode
Supplied, installed and supported in Malaysia — with Form Wash and Form Cure
The Form 4 is the fastest professional resin 3D printer Formlabs has built — powered by Low Force
Display (LFD) technology, with 5.25 litres of build volume and a workflow so simple anyone can learn it in 15 minutes.
Speed That Changes Workflows
Most prints in under 2 hours at 100 µm layers — against 3h37m for a benchmark FDM and 10h47m for the Form 3+ *
Same time for one part or a full plate — print time is nearly independent of how many parts you load
Up to 100 mm/hour maximum print speed; 40 mm/hour average across all materials
3× productivity in prototyping — iteration moves from overnight to within the hour
A Complete Ecosystem, Not Just a Printer
Form 4 printer — MSLA with Low Force Display (LFD) engine, 405 nm, 50 µm pixel
Form Wash automates part cleaning; Form Cure delivers precision post-curing for peak material properties
PreForm software — one-click print, auto-orientation, auto-supports and live printability checks
Dashboard — fleet management, remote monitoring and print timelapses from the 5 MP camera
Low Force Display™ (LFD) Technology
At the heart of the Form 4 is a new print engine. The Backlight Unit projects a uniform, ultra-high-power
light field using 60 LEDs and a collimating lens array — 405 nm at 16 mW/cm² delivered to the cure plane. Resin cures
quickly and precisely, with identical quality anywhere on the build platform.
Light Processing Unit 4 (LPU 4), Release Texture and a flexible-film resin tank work together to cut peel forces
Z-axis force sensor continuously optimises print quality and speed for the part geometry
Light-touch supports release cleanly by hand — less post-processing, fewer marks
High-speed automatic resin handling with infrared-sensed conduction heating, 25–45 °C per material
Lower peel forces and precise light delivery are what make Form 4 prints both fast and flawless —
whether it's part number one or a full plate of thirty.

Get More Done, In Less Time
Factory-calibrated out of the box, monitored remotely, and validated material by material —
the reliability that keeps a resin printer busy instead of benched.
From the official Form 4 film — a finished print, ready minutes after the last layer.
Blazing Fast, Every Print
Most prints finish in under 2 hours — and print time barely changes whether you load one part or a full build of many.
Factory Calibrated
Every Form 4 ships factory-calibrated with resin level sensing and automatic resin dispensing — unbox, load a cartridge, print.
Remote Monitoring
Watch prints from anywhere via Dashboard, with the integrated 5 MP camera capturing timelapses of every job — on one printer or a whole farm.
Built Around the Light Engine
A fly-through of the LFD engine — backlight unit, processing unit and release texture, engineered as one optical system.
So Intuitive, Anyone Learns in 15 Minutes
The Form 4 replaced specialist resin craft with a four-step workflow: import and prepare, load and print,
remove–wash–cure, then finish. Every step is automated where it counts.
Prepare: smart auto-orientation, advanced support generation and live printability checks in PreForm
Print: validated print settings per material, no-hassle cartridges and tanks, automatic resin dispensing
Post-process: quick-release part removal with Form Wash cleaning and Form Cure post-curing
Finish: light-touch supports come away quickly and cleanly — optional sanding, coating or painting
One-click print, adaptive layer thickness and remote print start — a new operator is productive on day one,
not week three.
PreForm prepares orientation and supports automatically; Dashboard keeps the whole fleet in view.
Stunning Parts That Always Fit
Sharpest details, smoothest surfaces, most accurate assemblies — the three things every engineer
checks first, delivered together.
Sharpest Details
Highly collimated light and 50 µm pixel size with pre-tuned anti-aliasing deliver subpixel resolution on the finest features.
Smoothest Surfaces
Lower peel forces and light-touch supports keep surfaces clean enough to rival injection moulded parts.
Most Accurate Assemblies
±0.15% XY dimensional tolerances on small features — assemblies and jigs fit the first time, every time.
Validated Print Settings
Every Formlabs resin ships with settings validated in-house — a proven recipe for each material, no experimentation required.
Intelligent Control Systems
Six upgraded sensors watch resin temperature, level, print forces and status — catching issues before they become failed prints.
Long-Lasting Consumables
Flexible-film resin tanks and light-touch supports reduce wear, waste and post-processing on every single print.
One part, or a full plate of parts — the same print time. Form 4 scales throughput without scaling time.
Batch after batch of end-use parts — about a minute of machine time per part at full plate efficiency.
One Printer, A Wide Range of Applications
Engineering prototypes, production tooling, consumer products and packaging — Form 4 resins cover
rigid, tough, elastic, silicone, flame-retardant, castable and high-temperature work.

overview and a guide to SLA resin printing.
What is the Form 4's build volume and what can it print?
200 × 125 × 210 mm (5.25 litres) with a maximum part length of 273 mm — engineering prototypes, jigs and fixtures, consumer enclosures, gaskets, moulds and end-use parts in your choice of 23 Formlabs resins.
How fast is the Form 4 really?
Most prints finish in under 2 hours at 100 µm layers — against roughly 3h37m for a benchmark FDM printer and 10h47m for the Form 3+. Maximum print speed is 100 mm/hour, and print time is nearly the same whether you print one part or a full plate.
What kind of accuracy and surface finish can I expect?
±0.15% XY tolerance on 1–30 mm features (minimum ±0.02 mm), 50 µm pixel size with pre-tuned anti-aliasing, and low peel forces with light-touch supports — parts with surfaces that rival injection moulding, and assemblies that fit first time.
Can the Form 4 print engineering materials — and third-party resins?
Yes. 23 Formlabs materials cover rigid, tough, general-purpose, clear, high-temperature, flame-retardant, silicone, elastic, castable and ceramic work. Open Material Mode lets you print qualified third-party resins. Biocompatible materials are available on the Form 4B.
Is a wash and cure station required?
Parts are washed and post-cured for full material properties. The Form 4 ecosystem includes Form Wash for automated cleaning and Form Cure for precision post-curing — we supply, install and support both alongside the printer.
What software does it use?
PreForm for print preparation — one-click print, auto-orientation, auto-supports, mesh repair and live printability checks — plus Dashboard for fleet management, remote monitoring and timelapses. STL, OBJ and 3MF files in, FORM files out.
How reliable is it for production use?
Form 4 was measured at a 98.7% print success rate by an independent global testing leader, backed by validated print settings per material, intelligent control systems, factory calibration and long-lasting consumables.
I need bigger parts — is there a larger option?
Yes. The Formlabs Form 4L uses the same LFD technology with a substantially larger build volume — full-volume prints in under 6 hours. Talk to us about the Form 4L if your parts exceed 273 mm.
How much does the Formlabs Form 4 cost in Malaysia?
