UltiMaker has introduced the UltiMaker Factor 4, an industrial-grade 3D printer that offers a comprehensive end-to-end solution tailored for light industrial applications. One of the standout features of the Factor 4 is its temperature-controlled build volume, measuring an impressive 330 x 240 x 300mm, coupled with uniform bed heating.
Elsewhere, UltiMaker has equipped the Factor 4 with a new high-temperature print core capable of reaching temperatures up to 340°C. This enhancement enables engineers to work with more temperature-resistant and durable materials. Moreover, the Factor 4 incorporates intelligent thermal management features, including actively controlled chamber airflow and a heated bed.
A full list of features for the new Factor 4 is available online through the brand's website.
