Formlabs Formlabs Form 3 Finishing Kit

Professional manual post-processing station for SLA 3D printing

The Formlabs Form 3 Finish Kit is a comprehensive accessory set designed to streamline your post-printing workflow. By providing a dedicated space for part removal and solvent washing, this kit ensures your workspace remains clean, organised, and safe from liquid resin. This manual rinse station is an essential asset for any SLA lab, providing the necessary tools to move your "green" parts from the build platform to their final, finished state.

What is included in the kit?

• Rinse Station: A stable base to hold buckets and catch drips during part cleaning.
• 2x Rinse Buckets: Dedicated containers for a two-stage Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) wash.
• Rinse Basket: Allows for easy submersion and retrieval of parts without direct contact.
• Rinse Bottle: For targeted cleaning of internal geometries and complex features.
• Finishing Tray: A chemical-resistant work surface for support removal and inspection.
• Part Removal Tools: Includes a scraper, removal tool, and flush cutters for delicate support work.
• Detailing Tools: High-quality tweezers and rinse blades for precision finishing.
• Safety Gear: A pack of disposable nitrile gloves to ensure safe resin handling.

Important Note:

The Finish Kit is included as standard with every new Form 3+ or Form 3B+ printer purchase. This item is intended as a replacement for lost or damaged components, or for users who require a second, dedicated washing station for specific materials (e.g., separating biocompatible resins from standard engineering resins).

Pro-Tip for Best Results:

To keep your Finish Kit in peak condition, always use the Tank Attachment when transferring the build platform to prevent resin from dripping onto the printer's outer casing. Regularly check the saturation of the IPA in your rinse buckets; once the solvent becomes cloudy and tacky, it is time to recycle the alcohol to ensure your parts continue to come out clean and non-sticky.
