Formlabs Fuse Blast High Capacity Kit

Formlabs Fuse Blast High Capacity Kit — an upgrade kit for the Fuse Blast system. It is designed for large batches on the Fuse X1 and Fuse 1 Series fleets. The basket is replaced without tools and without stopping production. The enlarged opening and greater volume increase processing throughput per cycle.

ParameterYour Benefit
Loading opening: 400 mmA wider opening diameter simplifies loading and unloading of parts, reducing the operator's physical strain.
Throughput per cycle: over 50 % more parts compared with the standard basketFewer processing cycles for the same batch volume shortens the total post-processing time.
Installation: tool-free, a few minutesThe basket can be replaced independently without a lengthy production stoppage.
Contents: Large Tumbler Basket and an additional Liner KitA spare liner allows immediate replacement without waiting for a separate order.
  • Wider loading opening: simplifies manual loading and unloading of large parts and reduces the risk of damage during handling.
  • Increased basket volume: prevents overloading, which could damage parts during the processing cycle.
  • Tool-free replacement: allows the basket to be installed in an existing Fuse Blast within a few minutes without equipment modification.
  • Spare liner included: eliminates production downtime while waiting for a separate order of the consumable liner.

Formlabs Fuse Blast High Capacity: how it works

The Formlabs Fuse Blast High Capacity Kit replaces the standard basket in an existing Fuse Blast. It increases the number of parts that undergo blast processing per cycle. This is the recommended configuration for Fuse X1 owners and for fleets of several Fuse 1 Series printers. Such fleets regularly process large batches. The wider loading opening simplifies placing parts in the chamber, while the increased volume prevents overloading, which could damage parts during basket rotation.

Basket and liner construction

The kit includes the Large Tumbler Basket together with an additional Liner Kit. The perforated stainless-steel housing holds the parts during rotation. The textured black chamber bowl distributes the abrasive material evenly across the surface of the parts.

Tool-free installation

The basket is installed in an existing Fuse Blast within a few minutes, without tools and without equipment modification. The rotating perforated chamber with nozzle and control panel remains unchanged — the operator only replaces the basket and liner.

Abrasive processing material

The cylindrical perforated chamber holds reusable glass bead abrasive material, which circulates around the parts as the basket rotates. This approach ensures uniform surface processing of large batches without additional manual intervention.

Applications

The textured inner surface of the chamber maintains stable contact between the abrasive material and the parts even under frequent daily use.

  • Production on the Fuse X1: For Fuse X1 owners, the High Capacity Kit allows a larger volume of parts to be processed per run, matching the throughput of the printer itself.
  • Fuse 1 Series fleets: For businesses with several Fuse 1 Series printers, a single Fuse Blast fitted with the high-capacity basket can service the entire flow of parts. This happens without forming a post-processing queue.
  • Frequent large batches: When post-processing takes place daily and in large batches, the wider opening and greater basket volume reduce the number of cycles required.
  • Continuous production without downtime: The additional liner kit included in the set allows a worn liner to be replaced immediately, without waiting for a separate order and without stopping the post-processing line.

Compatibility and contents

The kit is suitable as an upgrade for an already installed Fuse Blast and does not require a separate piece of equipment.
