UltiMaker has introduced Method XL, the ultimate solution for engineering applications. It combines precision printing with industrial-grade materials and a spacious build volume of 305 mm x 305 mm x 320 mm. Method XL bridges the gap between desktop and industrial printers, offering accessibility and performance.
With a heated chamber reaching up to 100°C and a heated build plate, Method XL ensures optimal results when printing with materials like ABS and ABS Carbon Fiber. It provides a stable environment for printing large, durable parts with high dimensional accuracy.
Method XL’s affordability and ease of use make it a cost-effective alternative to industrial machines. It supports rapid support material removal with RapidRinse™, resulting in refined surface finishes. The printer seamlessly syncs with CloudPrint™ software for a streamlined workflow.
Expanding possibilities, Method XL is compatible with a wide range of industrial-grade materials through the LABS program and the LABS Experimental Extruder. It also offers safety features like HEPA and activated carbon filters.
UltiMaker’s CEO, Nadav Goshen, stated their mission to drive the adoption of 3D printing in manufacturing. Recognising the need for more accessible and user-friendly industrial-grade 3D printers, they introduced Method XL. Goshen believes that Method XL offers customers the finest 3D printing solution available for engineering applications. Notably, it is the only 3D printer in its price range equipped with a heated chamber and build plate, enabling the printing of large and precise parts using injection moulding plastics like ABS. With the capability to produce larger parts, customers can enhance their output and efficiency, making Method XL an ideal choice for advancing their 3D printing endeavours.
