It's bad for PLA and especially ABS to sit at full temperature for a few minutes - it can cause clogging as the material is slowly baked into a gum. For PLA it can be at full temperature for longer - maybe 10 mintues or 30 minutes. For ABS even one minute might be too much.
Because of this, the UM2 heats up the bed first. Only when the bed is close to final temperature does the nozzle start heating up. So if you just wait a little longer you will see the nozzle "goal" temp suddenly change to 210C.
In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
We are happy to announce the next evolution in the UltiMaker 3D printer lineup: the UltiMaker Factor 4 industrial-grade 3D printer, designed to take manufacturing to new levels of efficiency and reliability. Factor 4 is an end-to-end 3D printing solution for light industrial applications
