Well, as I sip my first coffee of the day... Yay, finally, a US presence! It's been a while coming, but I think it will be great for the community on this side of the Atlantic. :smile:

 

He Simon (or do we have to call you "VP Ultimaker USA" now :-P ) congrats, looks like you'r going to be a very busy man...

Now there is really no excuse in the US anymore to buy the makerb#$%!

    Come on, don't push so hard. They'll have stuff to do instead of manning a cam. And before they post a shitty live stream that shines a bad light on UM, then it is better to skip it.

    We'll have enough time to drool over whatever technical gizmo they come up with :)

    I will be tweeting Thursday night. Folow @gr5org

    Last time they had a professional video board guy with like $10,000 of equipment plus a camera man. They had 2 or 3 cameras plus a hook into Erik's laptop. The video board was pretty amazing and I could see what was going on and all the chroma settings and stuff and it showed how many people were watching and so on.

    I think it cost quite a bit.

    What time (& timezone) will the announcements take place?

    Hopefully I don't have to set my alarm for the middle of the night to find out the news.

    Yeah they are very nice. They have a lot of different type of printers and are printing there own versions too. They just renovated the place. It's all nice and clean now! They made a pyramid of Colorfabb filament boxes :D

    We had a little panic during the day. The screw holding the knot on the feeder got loose (my bad) and the knot fell during a print but it all got resolved and they could test it out properly.

    So as you might know I "misplaced" my feeder spring a while back.

    Made sure that won't stop me again :)

    I have 2 more months of trial.. then I know if I have my job or not.... I hate the wait... im working like a lunatic to get everything done on time and make everyone happy... but im running out of steam now... sleeping 9 and 10 hours every day... working... eating and sleeping... i don't want to loose this job... its the first time in my life im getting to design new products 50 hours of the week... designing amazing machines that that cut flip print, dry, glue... everything and at high speed.

    I love it... working on a new cutter for a machine at the moment.. a new option to allow paper to normally flow through the machine path... but also allow for the sliced end paper to be sucked out through a very fine opening... the wheels that grab the cut paper have to have the right spring tension and positioning from start standard usage position to the heaviest paper that machine can digest... add in that around this new addon... their is 0.5 space between the next moving part... and Iv designed the whole thing to be a PLUG N PLAY unit.. just need to swap two screws from the main body and your rock n roll..... GOD LET ME DO THIS AMAZING KINDA WORK UNTIL IM 99 years of age... SCREW becoming a pensioner... I want to make more machines... :-) HEHEHEHE

    Careful, you'll set a precedent and then they'll expect that pace ;-)

      • 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.
