FabPro 1000

High Productivity

Produce models in hours, not days with the FabPro 1000. Compared to competing systems, the FabPro 1000 can create higher-quality parts with precision and smooth finish at up to three-times-faster high-throughput print speeds.  How? Our technology uses a projector to image each layer for easy and precise printing, with the ability to build several smaller parts on a single platform for increased productivity.

Advanced Software

Preparing part files for printing and monitoring print jobs is easy with 3D Systems 3D Sprint software, which comes standard with every FabPro 1000. This robust additive manufacturing software streamlines printing preparation through file importing, editing, repairing, and slicing and optimizes part placement on the platform with support creation and nesting. 3D Sprint allows for:

• Easy build job set-up, submission and job queue management
• Automatic part placement and build optimization tools
• Part nesting capability and part editing tools
• Automatic support generation
• Job statistics

Reliability

This entry-level powerhouse packs industrial durability and reliability into a rugged yet compact platform, delivering professional quality day in and day out. It's also simple to use – from setup, material loading and file configuration to post-processing, cleaning and maintenance:

• Replacing print trays and switching materials is a snap.
• Post-processing is seamless with an included finishing kit, and optional light-based LC-3DPrint Box UV post-curing unit for required cleaning and curing.

Materials for your applications

FabPro 1000 delivers exceptional value for a broad range of engineering applications. Find the material that best suits your application: 

• the fast general purpose FabPro Proto GRY material best suited for prototypes
• the FabPro Elastic BLK material for accelerated designing and prototyping of rubber-like and elastomeric products
• the FabPro Tough BLK material ideal for end-use and testing with a good surface finish
• the flexible and durable FabPro Flexible BLK for a wide variety of prototyping, functional testing and low volume production applications. 
• the Jewel Cast GRN ideal for small, fine- featured jewelry pieces, this material leaves minimal ash after burnout to produce superior casting quality.

3D Systems is optimizing the recently announced FabPro 1000 desktop printer for compatibility with selected NextDent materials for specific dental applications, including models (orthodontic/prosthodontic), and biocompatible materials for surgical guides and orthodontic splints.

Simple Post-Processing for Perfect Parts

Post-processing for the FabPro 1000 is a simple two-step process – clean and cure. Simply remove the printed part from the FabPro 1000, remove any support structures and clean in a solvent either in an ultrasonic cleaner or manually. The FabPro 1000 includes a Finishing Kit for supplies to help with the cleaning and support removal process. From there, the part requires UV-curing for final finishing, either in the recommended optional LC-3DPrint Box or other UV-curing unit.
