UltiMaker Method XL Grades: N/A Number of Students: N/A Number of Lessons: N/A Contact Hours: N/A Highlights: Large scale ABS 3D printing. Injection-molding prototyping. Method XL delivers precise, engineering-grade ABS prototypes, powered by its heated build plate and chamber. It guarantees strong layer adhesion, enables intricate geometries with water-soluble supports, and safeguards air quality with its built-in HEPA filter. Print solid, engineering-grade ABS prototypes that match your specs. With the Method XL, engineers can design, test, and produce large-scale models and prototypes with durable, production-grade ABS for their manufacturing needs with unrestricted geometric freedom. Extra large build volume With the largest build volume of any UltiMaker 3D printer, the Method XL is the ultimate 3D printing solution for large-scale projects. Print with industrial-grade materials and exceptional dimensional accuracy without the need to compromise on the size of your parts. UltiMaker Cura now includes print profiles for the Method XL. Unlock complete 3D printing flexibility on the Method XL by using UltiMaker Cura. You can use professionally tuned print profiles within Cura to slice files for the Method XL. VECT thermal regulation system Patented Variable Environmental Controlled Temperature (VECT) 100 thermal regulation evenly heats and controls the print environment. The Method XL also has a heated build plate for even better adhesion and temperature control. Exceptional dimensional accuracy The Method XL has been especially engineered to maintain dimensional accuracy and tight tolerances while printing even the largest ABS parts. Not only does the Method XL avoid warping and layer adhesion issues, but it creates massive parts with industrial-grade precision. Quick-dissolving supports for ABS RapidRinse on the Method XL enables the fastest support removal for complex FDM prints. Create the geometries you want – in any orientation. Then watch as those water-soluble supports dissolve before your eyes. External material case The Method XL's external moisture-controlled material case ensures peak performance from your professional-grade materials. Direct drive extruders Reliably 3D print with ABS-R or ABS Carbon Fiber to simulate the material qualities of injection molded plastics. Two filters, one seamless print Both a HEPA filter and an activated carbon filter are integrated into the machine assuring that you can use the Method XL indoors without worrying about harmful fumes or strong smells.
