Fuse 1+

Powder 3D printer with the best price-quality ratio

Simple, efficient, affordable, Fuse 1 is a perfect solution for independent manufacturing and prototyping. A compact platform that sets a new standard for selective laser sintering (SLS) and brings production technology directly to your business at up to one-tenth the cost of commercially available alternatives, without sacrificing printing quality. With Fuse 1 you can print with up to 70 percent recycled powder, you can produce functional parts in 24 hours while reducing downtime, and you can manage prototyping and production easily and intuitively. With affordable equipment and material costs, a powder recovery system, and easy-to-use software, Fuse 1 is designed to maximize efficiency at every step of the process. The large print volume of 165 x 165 x 300 mm allows you to print everything from original-size prototypes to batches of parts for end use, all in a single print job.

Nylon 12 Powder

With a balance of strength and precision, Nylon 12 Powder is an extremely versatile material suitable for both the fabrication of functional prototypes and the production of complex assemblies and end-use parts that are strong and have high environmental stability.

Nylon 12 Powder is ideal for:

- High-performance prototyping
- Small batch production
- Permanent files, fasteners and fixtures
- Sterilizable biocompatible parts*

* Material properties may vary depending on part design and manufacturing processes. It is the manufacturer's responsibility to validate the suitability of molded parts for their intended use.

Nylon 11 Powder 

Nylon 11 Powder, suitable for ductile and strong parts, is our high-performance nylon material of organic origin, suitable for functional prototyping and small batch production. Nylon 11 Powder is suitable for printing parts that bend and can resist impact.

Nylon 11 Powder is ideal for:

- Impact-resistant prototypes, templates and fasteners

- Thin-walled ducts and housings

- Carabiners, hooks and hinges

- Orthotics and prosthetics

Nylon 12 GF Powder 

The high amount of glass fiber present in Nylon 12 GF Powder enables 3D printing of rigid and compact parts with high thermal stability properties. Nylon 12 GF Powder is ideal for making prototypes or end-use parts that are required to have load-bearing capacity and high temperature resistance. The specific properties of Nylon 12 GF mean that the molded part will not warp and will maintain its dimensional accuracy even when exposed to high temperatures and when subjected to the application of a load.

Nylon 12 GF is ideal for:

- rigid and functional prototypes

- jigs and fixtures

- replacement parts

- parts subjected to high temperatures

- parts with threads and housings where these characteristics are required. 

Prototyping

Check and optimize your design to achieve a product that is perfect in every aspect. 3D printing enables extremely fast, easy and cost-effective production of high-quality prototypes, which are essential for experimenting with alternatives or verifying every functional, aesthetic and design aspect, avoiding slowdowns and errors.

Production

Additive manufacturing is intended to be the production of the future, whether for private use, independent businesses, or industrial production. Improving industrial productivity through 3D printing and 3DZ offers a wide range of solutions capable of meeting the needs of a variety of professional sectors. 

Fuse Sift 

Integrated workstation that combines part extraction and powder recuperation, storage and mixing in one device. Extremely convenient and compact, it provides the best functional efficiency available in the selective laser sintering market. 

Quick and easy print setup, fast and reliable one-click printing, and simplified management and monitoring. With PreForm, Formlabs’ print preparation software (free to download and use), it will be easy to import part files in STL or OBJ format, orient and arrange models, calculate estimated print time, monitor your printers, and upload design files.  

  

PreForm’s part consolidation algorithms can automatically arrange numerous models within the same print job. 

Antiwaste

With the Fuse 1 you can print with up to 70 percent recycled powder, optimizing the unit cost of parts. The Fuse Sift powder recovery system combines part extraction as well as powder recovery, storage and mixing in one device. It automatically dispenses and mixes new powder with used powder to reduce waste and control your powder supply.

Non-stop printing

The Fuse 1 was designed as a solution to print continuously and reduce downtime. Its cooling times, which are among the fastest in the industry, allow a new print to start within one to two hours after the previous print is finished.

Competitively priced

With affordable equipment and material costs, due partly to efficient powder recycling, the Fuse 1 is among the best choices in SLS 3D printing.

SLS technology has never been so intuitive

The color touchscreen interface will guide you through all printing and maintenance processes. The touchscreen display shows real-time images of the print bed, allowing you to observe the formation of each new layer in real time even from your computer.

Efficient

From print settings to powder recovery, hardware and software are easy to use and designed to maximize efficiency at every stage of the process.

Uniform and reliable printing

SLS 3D printing fuses a nylon powder one layer at a time. The unused powder supports the parts during printing, allowing you to create complex parts and interconnected designs without the need for any support structure. Thanks to its surface reinforcement technology, the Fuse 1 offers competitive mechanical properties and surface finishing, without prohibitive cost.

Multifunctional, comprehensive and durable materials

With the Nylon powder family, developed specifically for Fuse 1, it is possible to 3D print end-use parts suitable for production. Our materials, are developed to ensure high performance (excellent elongation at break, solid under stress, intensive strength) and to optimize cost per part. Nylon 12 Powder, Nylon 11 Powder and Nylon 12 GF Powder available immediately. Many other materials are in development.
