About the company

Formlabs provides high-performance 3D printing solutions tailored for dentistry. It offers 3D printers (notably the Form 3B), dental-specific resins, and related software to enable in-house fabrication in dental practices and labs. The printers use resin-based printing to produce precise dental models, guides, and dental devices with speed and accuracy, designed for chairside and laboratory workflows. Unlike general 3D printing providers, Formlabs focuses on dental-specific materials and validated accuracy to fit clinical needs and streamline workflows. Its goal is to help dental professionals fabricate necessary tools and models in-house, reducing costs while improving patient outcomes.

Formlabs launches $699 Form Studio 1, its first consumer 3D printer

Formlabs has launched the Form Studio 1, its first 3D printer aimed at consumers. It costs $699 and is on sale now. The printer uses SLA (stereolithography) resins, which harden into solid plastic under ultraviolet light. It accepts Formlabs-branded or third-party resins, with individual bottles starting at $29. Formlabs has nearly 200,000 printers in service, mostly with professional customers such as assembly shops and dentists who can pay $2,500 or more. Its last affordable model cost $2,300. The Studio 1 takes up about as much space as a minifridge. Users will likely also need a $199 wash unit, which removes uncured resin from models, plus room for tools and resin cartridges. Chief product officer David Lakatos said: "It doesn't take a lot of space. If you have a desk, then I think you should be good to go.

Somerville's Formlabs aids Ukraine drone production with 3D printers as resin use surges 140%

Somerville-based Formlabs, a 3D printer manufacturer, has seen consumption of its printing materials surge 140% in Ukraine in 2025 compared to the previous year. CEO Max Lobovsky discovered during a November visit that the company's printers, which sell for $1,500 and up, are being used primarily to make components for airborne drones. The privately held company generated more than $250 million in revenue in 2025 and has been profitable for two years. Formlabs manufactures its printers in Shenzhen, China, despite facing tariffs of approximately 40% when importing to the US. The Massachusetts 3D printing industry is experiencing renewed growth after earlier setbacks. Desktop Metal, once valued at over $7 billion, sold its core assets for $7 million after bankruptcy, whilst MarkForged was acquired for $42 million after reaching a $2 billion valuation.
