2. Introduction
2.1 Intended use
The Form4B is a commercial, precision tool intended for use in the additive manufacture of
end-user supplied designs from photopolymer resin. The final performance characteristics
of cured photopolymer resin may vary according to your compliance with the instructions
for use, application, operating conditions, material combined with, end use, or other factors.
In some cases, the additive manufacturing process may inherently result in variable
performance characteristics between manufacturing runs or within a specific part.
Such variances may not be apparent and may result in unexpected defects in
additively fabricated parts.
You shall independently verify the suitability of additive manufacturing,
stereolithography (SLA), the Form4B, and any specific designs or materials employed
for the application and intended purpose before use. In no event shall Formlabs be
liable for any loss, death, or bodily injury that you suer, or that you cause to any third
party, in connection with your use of Formlabs products. To the fullest extent legally
permitted Formlabs EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED OR EXPLICIT WARRANTY
OF FITNESS for a particular usage, the particular nature and circumstances of said
usage being unforeseen and unforeseeable to Formlabs.
Formlabs provides tools and materials that may be used in many applications, but
makes no claims as to the safety or eectiveness of any specific devices made using
Formlabs products. Certain Formlabs products, such as those commonly known in the
industry as “biocompatible” materials, have been engineered to comply with relevant
industry standards. The specific standards and most relevant technical specifications
may be identified within the technical data sheets and have been tested according
to relevant testing protocols for those standards and specifications. Biocompatible
materials are a speciality product, developed for use by medical professionals, and
should be used in accordance with the instructions for use.
Do not modify. The Form4B is intended for use as-is. Modifying the machine without
explicit approval and directions from Formlabs will invalidate the warranty, and could
potentially ruin the machine and cause you bodily harm.
