Introducing Fuse X1 – our new high-performance industrial SLS printer

It’s here! :tada:

We’re proud to introduce Fuse X1 – industrial SLS, 7.5x bigger than Fuse 1+ 30W.

With a huge 61.5 L build volume and high packing density, Fuse X1 delivers 3x the throughput at a fraction of the cost compared to industrial competitors.

  • Build Big: 330 x 330 x 565 mm build volume
  • Low Part Cost: 50% lower vs. industrial competitors
  • Productive: 3x typical industrial throughput with 30%+ packing density
  • Intuitive: Install in one hour, start a print in five minutes
  • Reliable: Industry-first, AI-powered failure prevention through Print Intelligence

Read all about the Fuse X1 Ecosystem here!

And what about SLA? Meet Flexible 80A Resin V2!

  • 4x Higher Rebound
  • 2x Higher Tear Strength
  • 2x Higher Elongation at Break
    (Compared to the previous version.)

Find out all about our new products in our Keynote – the Fuse X1 Ecosystem, as well as our improved Flexible 80A Resin V2:

Flexible 80A Resin V2 is available now, and Fuse X1 will ship in Q4!

Excited to see a bigger printer! The specs mention nitrogen only chamber, does this printer have an integrated generator, or would we need to source that independently?

Thanks! The printer uses an external nitrogen generator, it’s not integrated.

Hello,

nice, very nice…

how long needs to cool down a full Buildchamber ?

@ProtyLabs.Solutions The rule of thumb is the same as for the Fuse 1 Series: up to half the print time for a fully packed build. With the modular and insulated build unit, prints can cool outside of the printer, freeing the printer to start the next job while the last one is still cooling.

Do you have an hour number for the time a full build takes?

This is super cool!

Depending on how dense the print is packed, it can take anywhere between 15-40 hours.

Awesome thanks! That’s a long print

The longest print I have personally done is 52 hours in the Fuse1, which resulted in 1600 parts! I’m going to have to play around with preform and see how many I can get into the X1.

You were supposed to make a SMALLER machine… but that’s okay. Makes sense. New machine looks rad - maybe one day I’ll hit production that would need it, for now I’ll continue to tuck my Form4 in at night before I go to sleep

If we were to buy one of these, id say we would wait a year or two. Given the history of the Fuse 1 series and all its bugs at launch i will be paying close attention to this forum. Can´t imagine how complex this machine will be.

A cool little tidbit in this release is a new ability to identify a failing part and isolate it from the print. I wonder if we might see this added to the fuse1 at some point.

Is it planned that “Print Intelligence” will also be used in Fuse1+ prints in the near future?

I’ve only had 2 cases in 1.5 years of use but the idea of ​​being able to finish a build by bypassing a corrupted part is really interesting

I highly doubt this will be implemented in Fuse 1/1+ as they are dumb as rocks compared to X1.

I would love the feature tho, when it works properly. I doubt this is a flawless feature.

layer thickness 110 micron… not a good resolution compared to other printers

Will there be an option in Preform to have a play around with the build chamber packing? Would be incredibly keen to see what is possible with a build chamber of this size with some of our larger parts that the Fuse+1s struggle with.

Yes, you can select Fuse X1 in the latest PreForm release, 3.60, grab it from the download page!

Print intelligence sadly wont be coming to Fuse 1/1+ - the advancements in thermal sensing on the Fuse X1 that make Adaptive Thermal Control possible are also what makes Print Intelligence possible. Of course the Fuse 1/1+ has computer vision as well to automatically stop your builds upon early signs of failure.

Does the larger laser spot size affect the printing of fine details?
