Technology & Products
Key Products
microArch S150; microArch S150 Ultra; microArch S230
Technological Advantage
BMF's PµSL technology delivers 25µm resolution, verified in customer applications, with the S150 Ultra offering up to 9x faster print speeds than the base model. This speed and precision advantage is protected by proprietary process and material know-how.
Differentiation
Value Proposition
Reduces prototyping and production lead times for micro-precision parts by enabling direct 3D printing with 25µm resolution, eliminating costly and time-consuming traditional microfabrication methods.
How They Differentiate
BMF's microArch printers offer 25µm resolution, significantly finer than Formlabs' ~50µm SLA printers and 3D Systems' general-purpose DLP systems. The S150 Ultra delivers up to 9x faster print speeds for micro-precision parts compared to traditional micro-stereolithography systems.
