General

This limited warranty (“Limited Warranty”) applies to the UltiMaker Factor 4 3D printer (“Product”) in the country where the Product was purchased. UltiMaker warrants to the first end user (“End User”) that the Product conforms to the Product specifications published in the user manual, and is free from defects in material, design, and workmanship for a period of twelve (12) months from the date the Product is delivered to the End User (the “Warranty Period”). Only the End User is eligible to submit a warranty claim.
For a warranty claim to be valid: (i) notification must be made during the Warranty Period, (ii) the claim must be substantiated with the original customer’s purchase invoice, and (iii) the serial number sticker must still be on the Product(s).
This Limited Warranty does not affect an End User’s statutory warranty or guarantee rights; it is granted in addition thereto. The End User may claim the rights to which they are entitled under the Limited Warranty without prejudice to their rights or claims in accordance with the law.

Conditions

The Limited Warranty applies to a Product under the following conditions:

  • The Product was sold, delivered, and assembled by UltiMaker or a recognized UltiMaker reseller (collectively “Authorized Party” or “Authorized Parties”). See ultimaker.com/resellers for a list of authorized resellers of UltiMaker products.
  • The Product was newly manufactured on the date of purchase and not sold as used, refurbished, or manufacturing seconds.
  • UltiMaker’s latest software was installed and used in and with the Product.
  • UltiMaker installation and maintenance instructions as described in the manual for the Product have been observed.
  • If a part of the Product is repaired or replaced during the Warranty Period, the remaining Warranty Period for the Product applies. However, repair and/or replacement will not extend the Warranty Period for the part or Product.

    Claim handling

    Any notification on the basis of this Limited Warranty must be made to the Authorized Party the Product was originally purchased, even if this is not in the customer’s present country of residence.
    UltiMaker will assess warranty claims to determine their validity. If the claim is justified, UltiMaker or the reseller shall rectify the defects by repairing or replacing the non-conforming or damaged part(s) of the Product in a commercially reasonable time. If repair is not feasible, the reseller will replace the Product with an identical one, or if unavailable, with a similar Product of equal value, or offer a suitable refund.

    Only ship the Product in its original packaging if it must be returned for warranty purposes. It is advised to retain all packaging materials. If the original packaging is not available anymore, replacement packaging can be purchased from a recognized UltiMaker reseller. For returning service modules, such as the gantry or Material Station, packaging will be provided.
    Please note that the Limited Warranty may not cover expenses associated with shipping Product(s) for inspection and/or repair, on-site visits for inspection and/or repair, or shipping replacement or repaired Product(s) to the End User.
