That’s why the UltiMaker S6 offers two distinct build plate options—glass and flexible—each designed to fit different workflows and industry requirements. Whether your priority is regulatory compliance and consistency, or you’re looking for the latest in print convenience and reliability, there’s a build plate configuration that’s right for you. Please note that these options are nuilt into the S6 from the ground up, so you cannot mix and match. But no matter your application, UltiMaker S6’s build plate options ensure you have the right tool for the job. If you need help choosing, the MatterHackers team is always here to guide you! Glass Build Plate ConfigurationThe glass build plate is perfect for customers who have existing fleets and need consistency across multiple machines, or for those working in highly regulated environments like medical or food processing. If FDA compliance and sterile, easy-to-clean surfaces are critical to your operation, the glass plate is the clear choice. Benefits of the Glass Build Plate: Seamless integration for current S5/S3 users Ideal for medical and laboratory settings Trusted by the food and beverage industry Supports sterile workflows and is easy to sanitize Meets FDA and food safety standards Flexible Build Plate ConfigurationIf you’re looking for the latest advancements in 3D printing, the flexible build plate delivers. This industry-standard solution makes part removal a breeze, provides excellent print adhesion, and reduces the risk of print failures—plus, you never have to worry about chipping or breaking glass. Benefits of the Flexible Build Plate: Modern, industry-standard upgrade Effortless part removal for greater convenience Superior adhesion reduces print failures No risk of glass breakage or chipping Updates your workflow for a better printing experience QUADRUPLE YOUR PRODUCTIVITY WITHOUT COMPROMISE Rapidly produce professional parts without sacrificing precision on the UltiMaker S6 3D printer.
