I didn't realise it also had a ambient temperature sensor.
Where does it measure this temperature? Inside the print chamber or where the electronics boards are?
-
And for um2go?

The materials in demo are the 350gram rolls that you can see in the materials section.

I would like an extended but with dual prints a tall object may take a very long time to print.

The hot end mass is heaps smaller the UM2 so not as much power is required to heat it. This also helps with oozing etc.

Yes I missed you @daid
Thanks for posting this and can't wait for the next topic.
+1 for manipulating Led colors

Yes you are correct and that's why Ultimaker have multiple printers on offer for different price points and requirements.
-
And then comes the realization that I will never need half of those features.
You may not NEED all of those but the combination of all the features should make it a lot more reliable and easier to use.

But on the other hand most ultimakers are sold to companies, who most likely don't care about a few 100 euros for a couple of new cores
Yes they'll care. Especially when you look at how many cores you need on hand to print different materials, and at different nozzle diameters (If UM release them)
I run 2 printers 24/7 at my company and swapping them looks convenient, but a complete stock of nozzle cores x diameters would cost more than the printer for all the materials we stock.
As mentioned before, you don't need multiple nozzles for different materials, it can handle them all without atomics in-between.
The heat zone is also smaller the Olsson so there will be less left over plastic on a material change. And if you want a clean start then just do atomic when changing.
Also stainless nozzles suck. Hardened steel is better and it looks like Ruby is far superior again.

You can easily convert the 3d model into a 2D format that you can import into inkscape
-
You don't need to go into all that effort of having Python script. Just use inkscape with the laser plugin. It generates your gcode for you. With laser on/off etc.. extruder doesn't move and you tell it what command turns laser on/off. This depends on what you control it from, led or fan PWM.
You cant power the laser off PWM. This just gives a signal to control the output power of the laser. The laser needs external power supply that has a relay switch it from the PWM signal and you read the PWM signal to adjust the laser current.
I would suggest you buy the jtechphotonics board as it does all this for you.

In the picture it looks like it has my fan shroud

I'm surprised no one is speculating about the fuzzy images shown on the website yet....
Oh right. Time to get started. I'm sure that this time I'm going to be right; It's clearly a lawn mower!
Hmmm so the blade must be hidden underneath??

Wohoo, Finally A new Ultimaker

I am with Gr5 on this one. I find it very good. No layer bonding issues. Flexible and strong.
-
No I am not meaning on the top of every screen like the temp. Meaning more along side the print progress. But at the time I did not see you had this in the side menu, now I watched again I have seen it.
I really love your firmware, it has a really great look and menu is really simple
-
It would be good to add a few more useful items on the main screen like current Z height.
-
The previous advices are good.
If you are just making stuff for your self and not for long term use then I wouldn't worry to much as long as it's cleaned well.
I have worked in the food packaging and processing industry for 14years and I you knew how everything is handled and made then you wouldnt worry much about it.
Ultimaker has to be careful on advice around using prints for food just Incase you do end up getting sick.
And If you are one of those health fanatics then you shouldn't be printing anyway

It's the first time I have seen a video of the booth and I know all the faces.
I like the all cardboard look.

So that maybe why I have had trouble with adhesion lately. The sticker came off mine.
Thanks for the info, it would be good to have this explained on some of the guides.
The sticker is mentioned but it's not mentioned why.

Also make sure you have no air bubbles.

I would also like to have the ability to save a post. You can bookmark a topic and follow a topic but sometimes it's just one post you want to save.
Having a folder that you can name full of saved posts would be nice.
But this doesn't stop good topics slipping by unnoticed.
