The new Ultimaker boasts a single-head extruder capable of supporting 0.4, 0.25, 0.6 and 0.8 mm nozzles.

Added to this is the launch of the Ultimaker 2+ Connect Air Manager, an optional add-on designed to remove up to 95% of ultrafine particles and protect operators from hot, moving components.

The company believes that the accessibility of the car, a a cost of around 13 thousand by RON, will help small businesses and teachers achieve “real progress.” There aren’t many companies that, after speaking with industry heavyweights like Ford Motor Company and graduates, also accept feedback from small manufacturers.

With the S5 Pro package aimed at a more industrial clientele looking to remove outsourcing from their manufacturing workflow, the new Ultimaker 2+ Connect is designed for educational and rapid prototyping purposes. Through Ultimaker 2+ Connect the Dutch company is sending the message that despite the size of its products and large partner network, entry-level markets are still extremely important.

We began this business a long time ago, explains Jos Burger, CEO of Ultimaker. One of the key factors behind the company’s success was the Ultimaker 2, which proved to be highly popular among small and medium-sized businesses for prototyping or training purposes. These segments remain extremely important to us, and we aim to keep prioritizing them by offering an entry-level product. This approach allows users to get acquainted with Ultimaker, develop their expertise, and eventually expand their needs to include other types of printers, materials, and applications.
