Features summary
The Ultimaker S3 is a complete production system you can depend on in
the office or studio. With advanced features to ensure a reliable
printing experience, it’s still simple to use thanks to its
award-winning touch interface and seamless software integration.
- Dual extrusion with a build volume of 230 x 190 x 200 mm (9 x 7.4 x 7.9 inches)
- Down to 20 micron (0.001 inch) layer resolution
- Open filament system, compatible with glass and carbon fiber composites
- Dual filament flow sensors notify you if material runs out
- 4.7-inch touchscreen interface – Winner of iF Design Award 2019
Easy to use
The Ultimaker S3 was designed so that anyone can achieve high-quality results after a 30-minute introduction. Its award-winning touch interface, quick-swap print cores, and predefined print settings enable rapid changeovers and reduce operator time needed.
Reliable
The Ultimaker S3 features next-generation reliability. Its advanced active leveling, stiffer build platform, heated build plate, and more
accurate stepper drivers result in the highest print quality of a machine in this form factor. And dual filament flow sensors notify you if you run out of material.
Accessible
On every level, the Ultimaker S3 is our most accessible 3D printer yet. Start creating the parts and models you need using any filament, from any desktop, as part of any workflow, and quickly achieve ROI.
Material choice
Thanks to our pioneering alliance with global materials companies, the Ultimaker S3 lets you print with a growing library of advanced materials – including glass and carbon fiber composites (when using print core CC
Red 0.6 – sold separately).
From mechanical strength to flame retardancy, simply pick the material
for your application, download a print profile in the Ultimaker
Marketplace, and start printing. Optimized performance – no manually
entering parameters.
Here to help you succeed
The Ultimaker S3 comes with a one year warranty and lifetime support from trained and certified global network of partners. And if you have a question,
our online resources and community are there for you 24/7.
