Form Studio 1 is the first affordable, professional-grade resin 3D printer with a powerful, long-lasting print engine and an open platform. Print most parts in under two hours with razor-sharp detail and a workflow that is safe, reliable, and mess-free from start to finish. Paired with Alpha Resins and the Formlabs VOC Extractor, Form Studio 1 is the first and only resin printer with UL GREENGUARD Gold certification for low chemical emissions.

Most prints finish in under two hours. A custom lens array and 28 LEDs deliver a uniform, highly collimated 6 mW/cm² light field that cures resin quickly and evenly. Release Texture V2 and a flexible film tank reduce peel forces for faster printing without compromising surface finish or fine detail. Alpha Fast Resin prints at up to 130 mm/hr — print the entire build volume in less than two hours.

Office, home, studio, workshop — low-odor Alpha Resins are the first 3D printing materials to achieve UL GREENGUARD Gold, certifying low VOC emissions for the printing process when printed on Form Studio 1 with the VOC Extractor. Liquid resin scores as a non-skin irritant under OECD 439, and post-processed parts meet ISO 10993 requirements for long-term skin contact, making them suitable for wearables.

*When printed on Form Studio 1 using the VOC Extractor.
35 µm pixels and finely tuned anti-aliasing capture subpixel detail, while lower peel forces and light-touch supports leave smooth, clean surfaces. Every material setting is calibrated for dimensional accuracy, holding ±0.15% XY tolerance so assemblies fit together as designed.

Every material comes with validated print settings, tuned on hundreds of test parts. During each print, intelligent control systems monitor resin temperature, resin level, print forces, and leveling, and an integrated camera shows progress remotely in the Form Mobile App.
Start with validated Formlabs resins for reliable results out of the box, or branch out to third-party resins with no license fee — Open Material Mode ships included on every Form Studio 1. Third-party resins and Tough 1500 Resin V2 print in the Form Studio 1 Resin Tank Pro (sold separately).

Developed specifically for Form Studio 1, the Alpha Resin family delivers professional parts at a fraction of the cost of traditional engineering resins:
Resin cartridges, the Form Studio Wash+Cure, and the VOC Extractor are sold separately.
Form Studio 1 printers purchased through November 30, 2026 (or while supplies last) are Founders Edition units, which include a limited-edition printer UI, a Form Studio 1 plushie, and your first bottle of Alpha Resin for $29.
To claim your $29 bottle, add any 1 L bottle of Alpha Grey, White, Black, Clear, or Model Resin to your cart with the printer — the discount is applied automatically at checkout (one bottle per order; Alpha Fast is already $29).
Every Form Studio 1 includes a one-year warranty covering manufacturer defects, email support, and a full printer return within 30 days. Add a Form Studio 1 Pro Service Plan (1 or 3 years) from the Warranty Option menu above for accidental damage coverage and phone support on top of the warranty (deductibles: $150 for a printer replacement, $50 for an LPU replacement).

Nothing will impact your 3D printing results like the kind of filament you use. Good filament is highly consistent in diameter, is wound evenly onto the spool with just the right amount of tension, and will not tangle when being unwound. 3D Universe offers a wide range of high-quality filaments to choose from.
