« About 3D printing »
3D printing is often called additive manufacturing as well. It’s a rapid prototyping technology which uses plastic filaments that are extruded under high temperatures. Layer by layer it 3D prints the physical object. Professionals and makers all around the world use Ultimaker 3D printers for rapid prototyping, engineering, product design, 3D printed art, jewelry, and in fashion, medicine and education. With several aftermarket or 3D printed add-ons you can even turn an Ultimaker into a food 3D printer.

I guess it was time for a bigger ultmaker. Honestly, I had assumed Ultimaker had fallen in some sort of hibernation with all those large format printers appearing and no reaction from ultimaker. But something that would be even more interesting is a printer that is comparable to the Prusa i3 MK3 in size, quality and price.

cool, does that mean the normal ones are going to halve in price? :)

Can't wait to see what's in store for us!

Let's hope the warming bed will be a little less shaky. A little more rigidity would not be a bad thing!

[Chaosghoul]

let's hope this time it's actually bigger and not just taller like the last time they announced "something big"

A bit low on the news content - but high on the anticipation quotient!

Drop the high prices. Add better cooling, better extruder and I’m all in...👍🏼

Touchscreen, embedded enclosure and looks like a little bit bigger print volume.

ik zie potnagels, staal plaat ?. sowieso deuren (HE HE werd tijd) nieuw scherm betekent dat ook een nieuw OS ?
voor de rest nog steeds 3asser dubble extruder, jullie "smart" filament houder. mmm ben benieuwd
