3D Printing Technology

Formlab’s Tough 2000 Resin is great for prototypes that need to be strong with high stiffness. It’s ideal for rugged prototyping as this material is not easy to scratch and chip.

Formlab’s Standard Resin is great for prototyping parts that need smooth finishes. If you’re looking for parts that can be painted and displayed visually, standard resin is a great option for capturing fine, intricate details. Additionally, for jewelry, Standard Resin in gray or white with a 50-micron quality works exceptionally well, allowing for the creation of detailed and visually appealing pieces.

Formlab’s Rigid 4K Resin is best for parts that need ZERO give. This material has zero flexibility which makes it ideal for mounts and brackets due to its high tensile strength and stiffness. This material closely resembles PEEK.

Formlab’s High Temp Resin is the only material Makelab offers with a heat resistant component. This material is great for parts that need to have precise functional fits and also withstand high heat. This material can withstand temperatures up to 460F.

Formlab’s Grey Pro Resin is a great alternative to Standard Resin when printed parts need to be mechanically stronger. Grey Pro works great for large prints that need high precision, moderate elongation and low creep. It’s also a great material for printing small jewelry prototypes, the enhanced mechanical properties of this material ensures important features on small prints do not break.

Formlab’s Flexible Resin is great for prints that require a harder elastomer and may need to resemble rubber or TPU. Flexible resin is offered with lead times as little as 2 business days, so it’s a great material if you’re not too concerned with surface finishes and need fast, reliable printing.

Formlab’s Elastic Resin is great for small quick prints that you need quickly! If you’re not too concerned with surface finish and are looking for a material similar to silicone, this material is for you.

Formlab’s Durable Resin is great for functional parts that need to look great but function even better. With an elongation percentage of 55%, this material offers great pliable prototyping and impact resistance.

Formlab’s Draft Resin is a great alternative to Standard Resin. It’s similar in it’s mechanical properties but provides faster and more accurate printing. This means we can provides more cost-effective quotes with faster lead times than Standard Resin.

Formlab’s Castable Wax Resin is the best choice when printing for the purpose of casting in metals. It allows for easy, inexpensive jewelry prototyping.
