MatterHackers is opening its doors for an exclusive hands-on open house centered on the brand new Fuse X1, Formlabs' biggest, most capable SLS 3D printer yet. Sample parts, expert Q&A, a deep-dive on materials, and free tacos. Here's what to expect.

If you've been following the SLS space, you already know the Formlabs Fuse 1 changed what small and mid-sized teams could realistically do with powder-bed fusion. The Fuse X1 pushes that further, larger build volume, more throughput, and a system designed around serious production workflows.

On June 17th, MatterHackers is bringing the conversation to Lake Forest so you can dig into what this machine is all about.

"The Fuse X1 is a massive leap forward in SLS technology, and we want you to come experience it firsthand."

What You'll Experience

A Formlabs rep will be on hand specifically to talk through the Fuse X1, build volume, throughput, material compatibility, post-processing, and total cost of ownership. Bring your real application questions. This is the kind of conversation that's hard to have over a product page, and that's exactly the point of the afternoon.

There's also a materials deep-dive led by additive manufacturing experts. Formlabs' powder library spans rigid and flexible engineering materials, flame-retardant options, and composites, and understanding the tradeoffs between them is half the battle when you're speccing out a new process. You'll get direct, practical guidance on material selection rather than a brochure.

Beyond the Fuse X1, the afternoon includes live demos of the broader Formlabs lineup, time to connect with engineers, designers, and makers from across Southern California, and free tacos because good conversations happen over lunch.

Who Should Come

The event is aimed at anyone seriously evaluating SLS technology, whether you're prototyping complex assemblies, running end-use production parts, or trying to understand whether the Fuse X1 makes sense as an in-house investment versus outsourcing.

If you've been curious about SLS but haven't had a chance to hold an actual SLS part or talk to someone who really knows the platform, this is the right room to be in.

Save Your Spot

Space is limited and filling up. If you're even a little curious, we'd love to have you.
