About

The Ultimaker 3 extended & Ultimaker S5 are filament fed fusion deposition 3D printers capable of simultaneously printing two different plastics at once. Typically the printer is set up with ABS as a build material, and PVA as a solvable support material.


Safety Concerns

  • The print heads can be very hot - do not touch them with bare hands unless positive they are cool.
  • As with any automated machinery make sure that your body is clear of the moving parts to avoid injury.
  • The support removal tank for the F270 is filled with heated caustic chemicals that dissolve the support material. An apron, Gloves, and a face shield must be warn when inserting and removing parts or basket from the tank.
