THE PRINT HEADER
Dual Extrusion
Combine build and water-soluble support materials to create complex mechanical parts and intricate surfaces or choose to print with two colors. Ultimaker 3’s unique auto nozzle-lifting system ensures a smooth, professional finish with every print.
Swappable Print Cores
Faster print core changes mean higher uptime and easier maintenance. Your Ultimaker 3 comes with print cores for build (AA) and support (BB) materials. There’s a customized nozzle geometry per material – ensuring lower clogging risks and a more reliable 3D printing experience.
New Optimized Cooling
Ultimaker 3 has a powerful, low-noise fan system. Featuring two new radial fans and fan shrouds, it creates greater pressure build-up for an improved airflow. This ensures better cooling, high quality bridging, faster print runs and smooth print surfaces.
LED Status Indicators
Print core LED lights ensure an optimized 3D printing experience by alerting if any user interaction is needed.
COMPLEX DESIGNS WITH RELIABLE DUAL EXTRUSION
Create sophisticated models and intricate geometries like this Gyro by Virtox – and remove supports by resting the print in water, without leaving a trace. It’s the most reliable dual extrusion printer on the market.
Water soluble support structures help you build intricate structures, complex mechanical parts and smooth surfaces.
CHOOSE THE PERFECT MATERIAL
Ultimaker 3’s range of materials are formulated to achieve superior results. Optimized Cura profiles offer the best print settings per material and recognize which print core and material you’re using. The open filament system lets you experiment with all kinds of materials to empower your business.
Flexible, durable, corrosion-resistant
Nylon (polyamide) is a manufacturer’s favorite. With high strength-to-weight ratio, low-friction and flexibility, it’s ideal for 3D printing tools, functional prototypes and end-use products.
Fast, safe and reliable
Ultimaker PLA (polylactic acid) is reliable, offers fantastic surface quality, and it’s made from organic, renewable sources. It serves a wide range of applications for both novice and advanced users.
Tough, stable, impact-resistant
ABS (acrylonitrile butadiene styrene) has excellent mechanical properties – ideal for functional prototypes and complex end-use products. It can withstand temperatures of up to 85 ˚C.
Chemical resistant, strong, stable
CPE (co-polyester) is built for even tougher print jobs. Chemical and temperature resistant, with dimensional stability, it’s great for functional prototypes and mechanical parts.
Water soluble material
Ultimaker PVA is a water soluble support material ideal for printing complex models in PLA or Nylon that require supports for large overhangs, deep internal cavities, and intricate geometries.
Tough and heat-resistant
CPE+ (co-polyester) is built for tougher print jobs that require high temperature resistance and good dimensional stability.
Semi-flexible and resistant to wear and tear
With a Shore-A hardness of 95 and elongation of up to 580% at break, Ultimaker TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) is semi-flexible, durable, and chemical-resistant.
Heat-resistant and strong
PC (polycarbonate) offers a high temperature resistance, good mechanical strength and toughness, which makes it a great choice for molds, tools, and functional prototypes.
Fatigue and chemical-resistant
Ultimaker PP (polypropylene) offers excellent temperature and chemical-resistance. Its toughness, low density, and exceptional fatigue resistance make it a perfect choice for creating lightweight and durable end-use parts.
HIGH UPTIME,LOW MAINTENANCE
Together with optimized Cura profiles, advanced material recognition system, and material-matching swappable print cores, Ultimaker 3 is engineered for high uptime and reliable, industrial-grade results. And its full potential is yet to be unleashed.
To reduce time to market, we set up a print farm of around 20 Ultimaker 3 machines to 3D print the improved reel holders with a new, improved design. Used as an additive manufacturing system, the first Ultimaker 3 printers proved to be production-ready, reliable, and able to deliver results.
IT’S IN THE MAKING
Ultimaker 3 opens up a world of new 3D printing possibilities. Translate your vision into reality – without compromising on efficiency, reliability or precision. Now that you can achieve greater print complexity, the question is – what will you create?.
