Note: In the fall of 2022, MakerBot and Ultimaker, two leaders in desktop 3D printing, merged to form the new 'UltiMaker' brand.
Get to Know:
The MakerBot METHOD is the first performance 3D printer—designed to bridge the gap between industrial 3D printing power and accuracy and the accessibility of classroom 3D printers. Your METHOD was refined and optimized so that each one of these new features provides added versatility and power down to the last detail. Its circulated, heated chamber fully envelopes all prints with hot air, which results in consistent dimensional accuracy and optimal part strength.
- Save engineering time with automated workflow and CAD integrations
- A heated chamber delivers stronger, manufacturing-grade parts
- Guaranteed part accuracy and SR-30 soluble support
- Open platform for advanced engineering materials
- Two print heads for maximizing efficiency
The METHOD’s diverse material offerings enable students to print with the most in-demand polymers and composites and, using MakerBot LABS, professionals can access even more materials from partners like BASF, KIMYA, and JABIL.
