Formlabs introduces its new Automation Ecosystem, which is a group of products that are able to be attached to some of its printers. This includes Form Auto, which helps with removing a printer part from a machine to start on a new one. There is also the High Volume Resin system that aids with increasing the printers' raw material ability for up to five liters.
Then there is Fleet Control -- this is a new software that assists with managing a fleer of printers in order to create a balanced workload across all of the units. Together, all of these systems are naturally designed for small and medium businesses that depend on manufacturing but don't have enough staff to tend to each printer.
