【3D Printing News】First Look at the New Features of Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle!
What would you do if there was a 3D printer that could significantly boost productivity as soon as you bought it? At the 2019 TCT exhibition, Ultimaker unveiled this dream 3D printing system: the Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle. Don't miss out on this groundbreaking new era!
The Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle will fully integrate three independent devices:
．Ultimaker S5 3D Printer──The award-winning industrial-grade desktop 3D printer.
．Material Station──Moisture-proof and dehumidifying, 6 spool capacity, filament detection, automatic material changing, and multi-function system.
．Air Manager──Enclosed air filter, detects materials and automatically adjusts the EPA filtration system.
The three major devices each perform their respective duties and are fully compatible, thoroughly simplifying the 3D printing process; solving common issues of filament change and storage in FFF technology in one go – providing a complete system for demanding industrial and commercial 3D printing applications.
Now, let's take a quick look at the main features of the Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle and the new breakthroughs in its integrated 3D printing system:
The Material Station has 6 spool bays, providing greater 3D printing capacity and flexible setup space. For example, 3D printing objects that take more than three days no longer require manual filament changes or individual configurations. Each spool bay is equipped with an NFC sensor, compatible with Ultimaker filaments (excluding 350g special specifications) and "Ultimaker Material Alliance" filaments provided by the Cura Marketplace, achieving extensive industrial applications such as fiberglass, carbon fiber composites, or other 2.85 mm third-party materials with similar spools.
．Automatic Filament Changing
The Material Station for the Ultimaker S5 has been tested and can change filaments before, after, and even during the 3D printing process. Each spool bay is equipped with filament detection. When one roll of filament runs out, it automatically switches to the next compatible material, and the internal split feed tubes automatically prevent filament tangles.．Filament Moisture Protection
The Ultimaker S5 Material Station simultaneously addresses common issues of moisture and dust. Through its internal dehumidification system, the relative humidity inside the dry box can be reduced to 40% even in environments with 70% humidity. By solving the problem of moisture, filament molecules will no longer degrade or expand due to moisture absorption, extending the 3D printing time and shelf life.
．5 steps to load filament:
Open the door > Place the spool in the compartment > Insert the filament into inlet 1 or 2 > Confirm loading > Finish and close the door
．2 steps to unload filament:
Press the eject button > Wait for automatic unloading
The previously tedious process of waiting for the 3D printer to load and unload filament now takes only a few seconds! These processes have been made simpler thanks to the "Material Station," which not only accelerates innovation but also makes the 3D printing system accessible to everyone in the office. These tools, when used with the free official software and firmware, provide optimal benefits. For example, Ultimaker Connect can automatically assign the next 3D printing filament or job from a list, or even pre-feed the correct material before preparing for 3D printing. When these repetitive, tedious tasks no longer require manual operation, significant time savings will be achieved.
While 3D printing with the Ultimaker S5 produces almost no odor, not all 3D printing filaments are completely non-toxic. With the Air Manager, engineers can work safely with the 3D printer for extended periods.
The Air Manager features a 140mm (5.5 inch) silent fan that generates an inward-to-outward airflow, effectively and continuously filtering plastic particles from the air through a high-efficiency filter. When the filter element reaches the end of its life, Ultimaker Connect will display a notification. Additionally, it can adjust fan speed based on different materials and is included in the Ultimaker Cura print parameters, ensuring the fan and filter operate at optimal efficiency during the printing process. Installation is simple, requiring no tools, and all functions and control systems are interconnected with the Ultimaker S5 firmware and Ultimaker Cura software and are regularly updated.
Because the fully enclosed Air Manager provides a stable 3D printing environment, it is not affected by dust, and even positions near air conditioning units are protected from airflow, making placement more convenient.
．Industrial Production Capacity of Ultimaker 3D Printers
Immediately enjoy the convenient workflow of the Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle, allowing users to dedicate valuable time to design and development, and quickly shorten product delivery times and increase sales. It is the world's most complete 3D printing system: from automatic material loading and changing to air filtration and filament moisture protection and storage, it enables a worry-free 3D printing process, putting the power of digital manufacturing into anyone's hands.
