3D Printer – Ultimaker 2+ [NI-SERV-2020-31]

Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) 3D Printer

SHORT DESCRIPTION

The Ultimaker 2+ is a multifunctional 3D printer that brings digital models to life by depositing melted thermoplastic filament layer by layer. 3D printing applications with this system range from aerospace and automotive design to healthcare, product development, and research prototyping. The process includes three simple steps:

1. Design or download a 3D model;
2. Convert it into a printable format using Cura software;
3. Start the print on the Ultimaker 2+.

This printer is ideal for rapid prototyping, functional testing, and educational purposes, offering a balance between precision, versatility, and ease of use.
