Key Takeaways
  • Boston Micro Fabrication launched the microArch® S150 Series, expanding access to micro-precision 3D printing with compact, desktop-friendly industrial-grade systems.
  • microArch® S150 Ultra delivers up to 9x faster print speeds and 25 µm resolution, improving rapid prototyping and low-volume production efficiency.
  • New systems remove barriers to micro-precision 3D printing through one-touch operation, automated calibration, and streamlined workflows, boosting reliability and productivity across labs and industry.

Boston Micro Fabrication (BMF), the global leader in micro-precision 3D printing, today announces the launch of the microArch® S150 Series, a next-generation line of compact 3D printers designed to meet the growing demand for faster build cycles, streamlined workflows, and accessible micro-precision capabilities. The series introduces two advanced systems: the microArch® S150 Ultra, a high-throughput system designed for fast production workflows and the microArch® S150, ideal for flexible lab development and precision prototyping. Desktop-friendly, the S150 Series opens the door to reliable, industrial-grade micron-level additive manufacturing for a broader range of users across applications that include microfluidics, fiber optics, biomedical devices, electronics, and advanced research.

Leading the series in speed, the microArch® S150 Ultra sets a new benchmark in micro-scale manufacturing — delivering up to 9x faster print speeds than the microArch® S150, enabling rapid prototyping, iterative design, and low-volume production of finely detailed parts such as microneedles, channels, nozzles, and chips – perfect for use in academics, labs and advanced manufacturing settings. Built upon BMF’s proprietary Projection Micro Stereolithography (PµSL) technology, the microArch® S150 Series produces highly accurate, repeatable micro-scale features ideal for functional testing and validation, thanks to 25 µm optical resolution with ±3 µm positional accuracy. With layer thicknesses ranging from 10–100 µm, it supports the fabrication of intricate components with exceptional surface quality and dimensional fidelity.

Streamlined Micro-Scale Production Workflows

Engineered for seamless deployment across lab, office, and industrial environments, the microArch® S150 Series is purpose-built to eliminate operational barriers that have historically hindered the adoption of micro-precision additive manufacturing. By tackling challenges such as lengthy print cycles, complex calibration, inconsistent results, and reliance on bulky infrastructure, the series enables a more efficient, reliable workflow that boosts productivity and outperforms traditional micro-precision systems.

Through the microArch® S150 Series, BMF introduces a comprehensive suite of advanced features designed to streamline and stabilize micro-scale production. The Series combines one-touch operation with the renowned process stability synonymous with BMF’s industrial platforms. A fully automated setup eliminates manual calibration entirely — simply press a button and print. Preloaded printing parameters and an integrated touchscreen workflow remove the guesswork from daily operations, while high-viscosity material handling expands formulation possibilities. A built-in HEPA13 filtration system maintains a clean and safe operational environment, and a UV-C (253.7nm) sterilization system keeps the build chamber sanitized between print runs — supporting use in contamination-sensitive applications and allowing teams to focus on outcomes rather than machine management.

“Our mission is to make micro-precision 3D printing a more accessible technology for innovators across multiple industries and the microArch® S150 Series is a true game-changer in enabling us to achieve that. Designed to directly support customers seeking to accelerate their research and development without sacrificing quality, these systems remove long-standing barriers and make true micro-precision 3D printing genuinely accessible. By introducing this series, we are empowering users to easily and successfully create high-resolution parts with the speed and efficiency required for today’s fast-paced development cycles.”

— John Kawola, CEO, Boston Micro Fabrication

Live Demonstrations at RAPID+TCT

The CE-certified microArch® S150 Series will make its North American debut at the RAPID + TCT additive manufacturing event, taking place from April 13 to 16 in Boston. Show visitors will have the opportunity to see the microArch® S150 Series at the BMF Stand (1347) and explore firsthand how the system promises to redefine possibilities in micro 3D printing, by bringing enterprise-level precision to compact platforms.

The microArch® S150 is available for order beginning Q2 2026, with pricing available upon request.
