Formlabs’ Form Studio 1 is a desktop resin printer starting at $699. Maximum print speed is 130 mm per hour with Alpha Fast Resin. Open Material Mode is included, but third-party materials require the $79 Resin Tank Pro. Prints need washing and UV curing, and preparation uses PreForm rather than third-party slicers. Emissions certification applies when the printer is used with Alpha Resins and a VOC Extractor. A hands-on account highlights fine detail alongside laborious post-processing, so the base printer price does not represent the full workflow cost.
