Ultimaker webinars: What have you missed?

Each month, Ultimaker releases a free global webinar that takes a deep dive into a 3D printing-related topic. We’ve covered types of 3D printing, 3D printing materials, and interviewed experts from various industries about how additive manufacturing is transforming the ways they work.

These webinars are available on-demand and can be watched anytime, anywhere. So just in case you’ve missed one of the past three months, we’re here to recap them – and give you a sneak peek of what’s coming up!

Optimizing your Ultimaker Cura workflow

In September, we released a high-value session levels-up your slicing skills and allows you to leverage more of the power of Ultimaker Cura.

Host and Ultimaker’s Director of Community Development Matt Griffin was joined by Kostas Karma, Ultimaker Cura developer, and Terri-Ann dela Cruz, Ultimaker application engineer, as they shared expert insights and walked through their workflows.

What was covered?

  • How to optimize print profile settings and whether to “keep” or “discard” changes

  • When is the right time to export your drawing from CAD? (Based on Ultimaker Cura’s surprising power as 3D control software)

  • Best practices for iterative print preparation and every lesson you should learn from each print

  • The right way to use per-object settings and when they are most useful

  • Easy-to-use resources for anyone who wants to develop their own printer definitions, plugins, or print profiles
