Brief Description and Capabilities of Components
Large-Format SLA 3D Printing for Large-Scale STEM Projects
Formlabs Form 4L is a professional large-format SLA 3D printer that allows creating models up to 353 × 196 × 350 mm without dividing them into separate parts. This is especially important when creating architectural models, anatomical models, laboratory equipment, device cases, functional prototypes, and demonstration samples. The large printing area also allows printing several parts simultaneously, increasing the efficiency of practical classes and the work of the STEM lab.
Configuration for Intensive Use
The advantage of the Premium set lies in its extended configuration, which ensures high laboratory productivity. Two printing platforms, two resin tanks, two mixers, and two automatic material supply systems allow quick preparation of equipment for the next print, minimize downtime, and effectively organize the educational process even with a large number of users. This solution is especially relevant for institutions where equipment is used daily during lessons, clubs, STEM hackathons, or project activities.
Continuous Production Cycle
Two Form Wash L stations allow cleaning several models simultaneously or working with different photopolymer materials without unnecessary delays. While one batch of products is being cleaned, the next one is already being printed, significantly reducing the time for educational projects. After cleaning, the models are cured in Form Cure L, acquiring the necessary mechanical properties and stable quality. This organization of work is as close as possible to the processes used in modern manufacturing enterprises.
Professional Post-Processing of Large Models
The kit includes a Form 4L Finish Kit and a separate set of Finishing Tools, allowing safe removal of models from the platform, careful removal of supports, and final processing of products. Students get acquainted with all stages of digital production — from model preparation to final processing of the finished part, gaining practical experience working with the professional Formlabs ecosystem. For cleaning photopolymer models, it is recommended to use Formlabs Resin Washing Solution — a specialized washing solution with a significantly weaker odor than traditional isopropyl alcohol (IPA). It effectively cleans models, retains its properties longer, and provides more comfortable working conditions in the STEM lab.
Open Ecosystem for Research and Experiments
One of the key advantages of the Formlabs Form 4L Premium set is the support of Open Material Mode, allowing the use of not only original Formlabs photopolymers but also compatible materials from other manufacturers. This opens up additional opportunities for research work, experiments with different materials, and the implementation of specialized STEM projects. This approach is especially valuable for higher education institutions, research laboratories, technical creativity centers, and educational institutions that aim to introduce students to modern production technologies and Industry 4.0 principles.
Professional Software for Model Preparation
The kit includes free PreForm software, which automates the preparation of models for printing. It helps correctly position the model on the platform, automatically generates supports, optimizes printing parameters, and predicts the time required to produce the product. Thanks to the simple interface, students quickly master the model preparation process, and teachers can devote more time to practical work and the implementation of STEM projects.
Wide Range of Photopolymer Materials
One of the main advantages of the Formlabs ecosystem is the wide range of photopolymer materials for various educational and professional activities. Depending on the task, standard resins for quick prototyping, high-precision materials for printing small details, durable engineering, elastic, heat-resistant, and other specialized photopolymers can be used. This allows using the same large-format 3D printer for a wide variety of STEM projects — from educational models to functional products. The 3DDevice catalog offers a wide range of original Formlabs resins, making it easy to select a material for educational, engineering, design, or research projects and ensure the continuous operation of the STEM lab throughout the academic year.
Five Years of Professional Support
The Premium set includes a 5-year Form 4L Pro Service Plan, providing priority technical support, assistance from Formlabs specialists, and quick resolution of service issues. For an educational institution, this means stable equipment operation, minimized downtime, and confidence in the long-term operation of a professional STEM lab.
Ready STEM Solution for Your Institution
The STEM Kit for Large-Format SLA 3D Printing Formlabs Form 4L Premium Set is a comprehensive solution for creating a modern STEM lab, digital workshop FabLab, or technology classroom of the New Ukrainian School. It helps organize practical training in technology, physics, mathematics, natural sciences, robotics, and interdisciplinary integrated STEM courses, allows creating large-scale functional prototypes, implementing engineering and research projects, developing digital skills, and introducing students to professional production technologies.
