Dear everyone,

We recently got a new lasercutter and are currently busy getting to know the machines and all his ins and outs. Of course it is interesting to see the combination of the speed of the lasercutter with the three dimensions of a 3D printer. I would like to know if there are people here with some experience with lasercutters in the first place (maybe some tips). And are there people who maybe have suggestions on how they would combine the power of these two rapid prototyping machines.

Eager to hear from you

Kind regards,

Job van Gennip

    Hi,

    Cool that you have an lasercutter!

    You can always visit an local FabLab. There are many lasercutters and 3d printers...

    In a FabLab there are enough suggestions on how you can combine the power of these two rapid prototyping machines!

    Here you can see all FabLabs around the world!

    I have both a UM3e and a Laser Engraver/Cutter (Epilog Legend 32 with a 40 Watt CO2 laser). I have yet to combine the two tools to make anything but I haven't owned the 3D printer very long and still struggle with trying to make it do what I need.

        ArunC posted a topic in UltiMaker Cura,

        Cura 5.7 is here and it brings a handy new workflow improvement when using Thingiverse and Cura together, as well as additional capabilities for Method series printers, and a powerful way of sharing print settings using new printer-agnostic project files! Read on to find out about all of these improvements and more.

      • Release Notes: S-Line Firmware 8.3.0 (Latest)

        Dustin posted a topic in Firmware,

        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.
