3D Printer – Ultimaker S3 [NI-SERV-2020-31]

Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) 3D Printer

SHORT DESCRIPTION

The Ultimaker S3 is a multifunctional professional 3D printer designed for reliable dual-extrusion printing with advanced features. You can create physical objects from digital models by depositing thermoplastic filament layer by layer. Its dual extrusion, composite readiness, and intuitive interface make it ideal for applications spanning engineering, product development, research, education, and prototyping of functional parts. The workflow is straightforward:

1. Design or obtain a 3D model.
2. Slice it using Ultimaker Cura.
3. Send the job to the Ultimaker S3 (via Wi-Fi, Ethernet or USB).
4. The printer handles active leveling, filament flow monitoring, and dual extrusion to build complex parts.
