What they do well

  • Dual extruder with PVA: impossible geometries without support marks
  • Profiles validated material by material
  • Support and warranty designed for enterprise

Where they give trouble

  • Very high price compared to current CoreXY machines
  • Modest speeds compared to Bambu or Qidi
  • PVA must be dried, otherwise it is useless

Workshop tips for UltiMaker

Dry PVA or nothing

PVA absorbs moisture over a weekend. Store it with desiccant and dry it for 4 h at 45 °C before a long print.

Is your UltiMaker not giving you what you need?

Sometimes the part is more urgent than the learning curve. Send us the file and we'll print it with the right material and settings from our workshop in Viladecavalls.
