Patented VECT™ 110 Thermal Regulation evenly heats and controls the print environment leading to parts that are stronger on the z-axis, and more accurate across the board. (Variable Environmental Controlled Temperature)
Actively heated chamber
Maximum temperature:
Thermal Regulation evenly heats and controls the print environment leading to parts that are 2x stronger on the z-axis, and 2x more accurate across the board.
A structurally-optimized metal frame runs the full length of the body to offset flexing. Less flexing means more consistent prints with better part accuracy and fewer failures.

This is the process of depositing layers of filament, one on top of the other, to build up shapes and models. It is a form of additive manufacturing technology and the process used by all UltiMaker 3D printers.
Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM)
The filament diameter that achieves optimal results on UltiMaker Method series 3D printers.

A micron is the measurement used to define the thickness of a 3D printed layer. 20 micron is 0.02 mm thick. Thinner layers are used for high-detail prints, thicker layers are great for fast prototypes.
0.4 mm nozzle: 400 - 20 micron
The touchscreen allows you to start, stop, and monitor prints on your Method series printer. As well as allowing you to calibrate your printer and install firmware updates without needing to use a computer or other device.

Faster extruder changes mean higher uptime and easier maintenance. The Method X Carbon Fiber Edition comes with 1C, 2A, and 2XA extruders for printing polymers, composites, and soluble support materials. The Labs extruder is sold separately for printing 3rd part materials.
Swappable performance extruders
Thanks to swappable extruders, you can quickly switch to the extruder that matches the material you are trying to print. This results in higher uptime and easier maintenance of your 3D printer.
Dual-extrusion print head with swappable extruders
The nozzel diameter controls how much material can be extruded at once. All Method series extruders have 0.4 mm nozzles.
