The Fuse Blast Polishing Media is engineered to deliver smooth, semi-gloss surface finishes for SLS 3D printed parts when used with the Fuse Blast Polishing System. These specially formulated plastic beads polish parts by compacting the surface, helping produce consistent, dye-ready finishes without removing material.
Optimized Polishing Performance
The media is designed specifically for the Fuse Blast Polishing System, using durable plastic beads propelled at higher pressures to effectively smooth SLS parts and improve overall surface quality.
Smooth, Semi-Gloss Surface Finish
Unlike abrasive polishing or chemical surface treatments, the polishing media refines parts by compacting the outer surface, creating a smooth, semi-gloss finish suitable for dyeing and professional end-use applications.
Long-Lasting Media for Reliable Workflows
Built for durability, the polishing media is designed to withstand more than 100 blasting cycles while resisting the breakdown commonly seen with traditional glass blasting media.
Designed for the Fuse Blast Polishing System
Formulated specifically for use with the Fuse Blast Polishing System, the polishing media integrates seamlessly into the Formlabs SLS workflow to help streamline post-processing and deliver consistent finishing results.
