Next to our successful Ultimaker 2 family, another dynasty will be added shortly. Just a few more days until we can really get to know it, but we figured we could already start showing what it can do. In the next few days I will update this thread with some new shots and video's that reveal something.

We feel this machine is a great fit for the industries where there is a need to print even more complex things than what was ever possible before. The next era of 3D printing is about to land, make sure you have a front row seat :)

If you have watched and inspected our video's closely, but you are still eager for more, join us while we make a trip down to memory-lane. See what the last 5 years have done for Ultimaker.

First teases a print with support material that disappears

Second is a 2 color drill

Thats dual extrusion

Do i win a free one for figuring it out first ?

    OMG #UM3SLAconfirmed!

    No that looks like a very nice PLA print. I wonder though, with some post, couldn't you get around with minimal support, instead of dual?

    Well that print clearly shows skills... Check the material samples for PLA/ABS/CPE

    https://ultimaker.com/en/products/materials/pla

     

    Well actually, that model is printed with single extrusion.

    As you can see here, @Illuminarti did it in 2013 already. We used custom supports for easy removal.

    And how you plan to remove the supports? With a nano robot that goes inside and eats the supports? :D

     

    Patience. A shit load of it :PAnd custom designed/printed pliers to fit inside.

    I'd love to see a picture of the printed version with support.

    Currently we are a bit busy :p I am pretty sure we don't have it lying around but perhaps one of my colleagues still has the g-code somewhere. Somewhere after the 18th I'll ask around ;)

    I was thinking about the new dual printing,

    would this make it possible to print faster, using a 0.4mm together with a 0.8mm nozzle,

    print fine detail for the outer surface and big fill on the inside ?

    That's what I did with the Rocktopus I posted in the UM3 release date topic. 0.8 mm black, 0.4 orange. But printing time for dual extrusion parts will often be dominated by the number of tool changes and the necessary time for reheating, priming or wiping.

    i was looking at the videos of the new ultimaker, and i payed attention and how the head is moving and how the build plate goes up and down, very often, it remembered me a dual extrusion that i saw here in the forum, (sorry i forgot the name of who was testing and experimenting with it) it had two printheads, one parked on one corner, so the printer prints one colour, then homes the head and pick the other one and print withthe other colour... or smth like that, somehow remembered me to that post.

    I just noticed the frames in between that show the support material :)

    Will those print designs be available at some point? I really like that vase...

    If it can print classic red design chairs, then I want one!

    That remembers an old post (may) about something near that new design  :  https://ultimaker.com/en/community/20997-ulticreatr-2x-dual-extrusion-for-ultimaker-2-and-ultimaker-2

    That would be foehnsturm that posted just before you :) He has polished that design/approach quite a bit and he's getting excellent results from it.

    I got this feeling that this will no longer be open source

      • UltiMaker Cura 5.3 stable released
        In this stable release, Cura 5.3 achieves yet another huge leap forward in 3D printing thanks to material interlocking! As well as introducing an expanded recommended print settings menu and lots of print quality improvements. Not to mention, a whole bunch of new printer profiles for non-UltiMaker printers!

      • Here it is. The new UltiMaker S7
        The UltiMaker S7 is built on the success of the UltiMaker S5 and its design decisions were heavily based on feedback from customers.
         
         
        So what’s new?
        The obvious change is the S7’s height. It now includes an integrated Air Manager. This filters the exhaust air of every print and also improves build temperature stability. To further enclose the build chamber the S7 only has one magnetically latched door.
         
        The build stack has also been completely redesigned. A PEI-coated flexible steel build plate makes a big difference to productivity. Not only do you not need tools to pop a printed part off. But we also don’t recommend using or adhesion structures for UltiMaker materials (except PC, because...it’s PC). Along with that, 4 pins and 25 magnets make it easy to replace the flex plate perfectly – even with one hand.
         
        The re-engineered print head has an inductive sensor which reduces noise when probing the build plate. This effectively makes it much harder to not achieve a perfect first layer, improving overall print success. We also reversed the front fan direction (fewer plastic hairs, less maintenance), made the print core door magnets stronger, and add a sensor that helps avoid flooding.
         

         
        The UltiMaker S7 also includes quality of life improvements:
        Reliable bed tilt compensation (no more thumbscrews) 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi A 1080p camera (mounted higher for a better view) Compatibility with 280+ Marketplace materials Compatibility with S5 project files (no reslicing needed) And a whole lot more  
        Curious to see the S7 in action?
        We’re hosting a free tech demo on February 7.
        It will be live and you can ask any questions to our CTO, Miguel Calvo.

      • UltiMaker Cura Alpha 🎄 Tree Support Spotlight 🎄
        Are you a fan of tree support, but dislike the removal process and the amount of filament it uses? Then we would like to invite you to try this special release of UltiMaker Cura. Brought to you by our special community contributor @thomasrahm
         
        We generated a special version of Cura 5.2 called 5.3.0 Alpha + Xmas. The only changes we introduced compared to UltiMaker Cura 5.2.1 are those which are needed for the new supports. So keep in mind, this is not a sneak peek for Cura 5.3 (there are some really cool new features coming up) but a spotlight release highlighting this new version of tree supports.
