I think 700ºC is kinda overdoing it for PLA... ;)

What materials will it unlock?

And if it is that small (small heatzone), will it be able to print with high speeds?

    Peek and a few others. But I'm guessing 1 roll of filament will cost the same as a new printer.

    Wow, that is some impressive thermodynamics on a print head if it can reach those temperatures easily.

    But why? :p Perhaps burning your nozzle clean?

    Example of some materials that in theory would be possible. Though in practice I don't think making magma would be high on my to do list lol.

    Melting point of Tin = 231.9C

    Melting point of lead = 327.5C

    Melting point of aluminium alloy = 463 to 671C

    Melting point of aluminium = 660.3C

    Glass depending on composition melts at approximately = 500c to 1650c +

    Natural rock depending on composition turns to magma at = 700c to 1300c +

    Keep in mind the more temperature we apply and depending on the material the off gassing could be very toxic. Not to mention any toxic residue left by some metals.

      • S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 was released Nov. 20th on the "Latest" firmware branch.
        (Sorry, was out of office when this released)

        This update is for...
        All UltiMaker S series  
        New features
         
        Temperature status. During print preparation, the temperatures of the print cores and build plate will be shown on the display. This gives a better indication of the progress and remaining wait time. Save log files in paused state. It is now possible to save the printer's log files to USB if the currently active print job is paused. Previously, the Dump logs to USB option was only enabled if the printer was in idle state. Confirm print removal via Digital Factory. If the printer is connected to the Digital Factory, it is now possible to confirm the removal of a previous print job via the Digital Factory interface. This is useful in situations where the build plate is clear, but the operator forgot to select Confirm removal on the printer’s display. Visit this page for more information about this feature.
