I Tested the Formlabs Form 4 – Here’s the Truth!
232Formlabs Form 4 – The Most In-Depth Review Yet! Is This the Ultimate Professional Resin 3D Printer?
The Formlabs Form 4 is a high-end professional MSLA 3D printer designed for engineers, product developers, and businesses. But is it worth the $3,500 price tag? In this deep-dive review, I test Formlabs’ Grey V5, Clear V5, Durable, and Tough 2000 resins, explore PreForm and Dashboard software, and evaluate print quality, speed, and workflow automation. I also break down the closed ecosystem debate and Open Material Mode. Whether you're considering Formlabs, Zortrax Inkspire 2, Raise3D DF2, or HeyGears Reflex RS, this is the only Form 4 review you need! #formlabs #form4
