Ultimaker Profile Assistant

Hello,

At the Transformation Summit there was a plugin for Cura mentioned, that guides through the creation of a material profile called "Profile Assistant". Can I get that somewhere?
I got a material but it really doesn't print well on my UMs with the default profile in Cura and I'm a little lost where to start.

I looked basically everywhere and wasn't able to find it. When googling it, there seemed to be a support article but it says I'm not allowed to view it 🤔.

 

When I get it to working fine, can I contribute the profile somehow into Cura or are only manufacturers allowed to do that?

Nope, sorry. It's a plugin that we only supply for material manufacturers. I don't know if we will ever release this to a larger audience.

That being said; It's essentially guiding you through the process of creating a good profile. You can also do this by hand. There are good video's / tutorials on the internet how to fine tune profiles and settings.

    Okay, that’s sad, it looked like a nice tool in the video ☹️
    I’ll have a look into some videos to hopefully figure it out 😅😊..

      • 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.
