Fuse X1 and Fuse 1+ 30W

We work with 2 Formlabs SLS printers with very different build volumes. Which printer an order runs on depends on the size of the parts, the material and how many fit into a build.
Build volumes at the same scale: the Fuse 1+ 30W has 165 × 165 × 300 mm, the Fuse X1 has 330 × 330 × 565 mm.165 mm165 mm300 mm330 mm330 mm565 mmFuse 1+ 30W8.2 lFuse X161.5 l

Drawn to the same scale · the Fuse X1 has about 7.5 times the volume of a Fuse 1+ 30W

After printing

Cleaning the parts after printing

A part taken out of the powder is covered by a fine layer of clinging powder. We clean it in 2 stages, with dedicated equipment, so the surface is even and the unused powder can be reused.

Fuse Sift

The depowdering station for the Fuse 1+ 30W. We take the parts out of the build chamber, recover the unsintered powder, sieve it and mix it with fresh powder in the ratio the material requires.

Fuse Sift X1

The depowdering station for the Fuse X1. The build unit docks straight into the station, the parts are cleaned with compressed air in a sealed glovebox, and the recovered powder goes automatically to mixing.

Fuse Blast

Cleans the remaining powder off the parts by automatic glass bead blasting in a rotating basket and, on request, polishes them to a semi-gloss surface that is ready for dyeing or painting.
