Ultimaker 3 release date ?

[matthieu 0]

Hello,

I would like to buy an Ultimaker 2 but I wonder if a new version will pop-up in just a few weeks ?

Do you have any news about how far you are from the next Ultimaker release ?

Thanks !

I don't know. And the people that know will not be allowed to tell you....

But common sense give a few communication moments... the december holiday period and CES beginning jan2016. I would be dissapointed if we don't here anything by then...

Well past events like Makerfaire NYC and CES have seen some new releases.

I have checked and Ultimaker isn't listed as a exhibitor at CES yet and last year there was a month or so warning about something new coming at makerfaire.

But UM seem to be getting better at being Secret squirrel

I'm looking forward to the expansion kit for the Ultimaker 2 for dual material extrusion.

I see the kit is available for the original one, and the UM2 print head and box and fillament holder already have been engineered where parts can be added.

They announced a couple of months ago that the Ultimaker 2 won't have a proper dual extrusion kit. There's an alternate solution being worked on by @UltiArjan at the moment you can check it out it's awesome!

Looks like THESE guys are still working on one 2.

expected oktober 2015 ... let's keep an eye on that ...

[Labern 774]

Indeed. Let's see if they get It right this time.

[LePaul 324]

I've put my purchasing on hold until October too

Since they just released 2 new versions of the UM2, i doubt we will see an UM3 for at least another year and a half

I will however be moving on to a big box for dual extrusion besides my UMO

Just bought an Ultimaker 2 from a local reseller. Should I have waited?

[ultiarjan 1,223]

No. There will always be a next machine... the um2 is a great machine enjoy it!

[nallath 1,123]

It's no guarantee for next time; but last time we had some sort of deal for people who just bought an old machine. Can't remember the specifics though.

False. I got burned. I bought my Ultimaker kit and the Ultimaker 2 came out 10 days later. I had inquired about buying an assembled model and opted to save the money with a kit. Well, kits are not refundable. And no...no discount was offered if I wanted to buy the Ultimaker 2. I was very frustrated with the company for many months. I was told, using Apple as an example, that they do not release the dates of when a new model comes out. Well, Apple always releases new updates on their annual meeting! Bad example.

So...be very careful what you say.

[nallath 1,123]

Then i remembered incorrectly, sorry :( Must have only overheard the discussion then.

I heard it will be able to breathe fire!

[IRobertI 520]

Does that mean you have to feed it gold to be able to print?

[SandervG 1,521]

But not the gold @cloakfiend has. He uses all kind of fancy stuff to replicate gold

Does it also run on rainbows?

You all seem to know more than I do!

[cloakfiend 995]

I just bought a um2 so please delay any release by 6 months to make me feel better, lol.

Yep my guess too.

[Kevparang 10]

I think it should be able to run on air!!!

[Labern 774]

Well the old UM2 feeder was good at printing air.
