Formlabs Fuse Sift
All-In-One Powder Recovery for the Fuse Series
The Fuse Sift is a safe, efficient powder recovery system for the Fuse 1 generation printers. This all-in-one station combines part extraction, powder recovery, storage, and mixing in a single free-standing device. Highly convenient and compact, this is the most functionality you’ll get in a single device on the SLS market.
The best sidekick an SLS 3D printer could ask for
The Fuse Series are affordable, intuitive SLS 3D printers for strong, durable parts. The Fuse Sift completes the Fuse workflow.
Compact, enclosed system
A negative air pressure system keeps powder inside while enabling open access and easy clean-up.
Dimensions: 1.0 × 0.6 × 1.5 m (39.9 × 24.0 × 60.8 in)
Low waste
A 30% material refresh rate means you can print with up to 70% recycled powder, indefinitely. Fuse Sift’s sieve filters out particles to be remixed with new powder and reused in future prints.
Automatic powder mixing
Fuse Sift will dispense and mix used and new powder automatically so you can reduce waste and control your powder supply.
Nonstop printing
Reduce downtime by transferring modular build chambers and powder cartridges between the Fuse 1 and Fuse Sift for a nonstop, cyclical workflow.
A complete toolkit
The Fuse Sift includes a set of finishing tools to help you clean excess powder from parts with ease.
