Posted · Ultimaker Sessions 28th of November | Ultimaker 3 Explained

I don't think there has been a way to go around the news... the Ultimaker 3 made its appearance!

Ultimaker HQ launched the Ultimaker 3 in

, and alongside there were 17 local launches in collaboration with our partners! It was a big and memorable day for us full with celebrations.

But there is a chance you could not make it to one of these launch events and you haven't had a chance to see the Ultimaker 3 in real life yet. That is about to change! During the next Ultimaker Session we want to introduce you to the newest member in our family, the Ultimaker 3, and give you the chance to see it in action. With this new 3D printer comes a lot more than what you would expect at first sight, and even Cura has been improved with a ton of new features. Getting curious already?

Do you want to know more about the Ultimaker 3 new features after seeing

? Make sure to come by the new Ultimaker Session and we'll tell you all about the possibilities that are made accessible in 3D printing.

3 of our pro support engineers will be happy to tell you more about:

- The Ultimaker 3, what are the new features.

- Cura, how to slice for dual extrusion.

- PVA, what to keep in mind and how to dissolve it in water.

Date: 28 - 11 - 2016

Location: ProtoSpace Utrecht

PROGRAM

17.00 - 18.00 Arrival. You can also order food (10 euro pp, cash or card)

18.30 - 20.00 Ultimaker 3 explained.

20.00 - 21.00 Hang around and have a chat!

We'd appreciate it if you would RSVP using Meetup:

    Though I'm interested in seeing the the UM3 in action, the time (and now my student OV is no longer valid also costs) investment makes it a little less practical to stop by. Budget doesn't allow an UM3 any time soon anyway, and most features are self explanatory if you are not looking into getting one.

    I would be interested to see if the build plate(lighter and more stiff) can be fitted to an UMO with HBK, as that one wobbles quite a lot. Also the fans are a continuously interesting development(moaaar air, moaar cool, faaaaaster and prettier prints!).

    Perhaps another time! ;)

    ahh too bad! Well, I believe you have carpooled before. Maybe if you can find the time you will be able to find your way to Protospace. Otherwise, I would be happy to see you again next time!

    (Cura has a lot of interesting new features too. Quite some apply to the Ultimaker 3 / dual, but not all. That would still be interesting for you I think.)

    Ben benieuwd naar de mogelijkheden voor printen met 2 materialen bij een UMO+.

    (Ook al gaat het over de UM3 ;-) ).

      • UltiMaker Cura 5.3 stable released

        UltiMaker Cura 5.3 stable released

        ArunC posted a topic in Ultimaker Cura,

        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

        Here it is. The new UltiMaker S7

        MariMakes posted a topic in Official news,

        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 🎄

        Cura Alpha With New Tree Support 🎄

        MariMakes posted a topic in Ultimaker Cura,

        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.
