【3D Printing News】Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle New Features Sneak Peek!
If there was a 3D printer that could significantly boost productivity as soon as you bought it, what would you do? At the 2019 TCT exhibition, Ultimaker unveiled this dream 3D printing system: the Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle. Don't miss this groundbreaking new era!
The Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle will fully integrate three independent devices:
．Ultimaker S5 3D Printer──The award-winning desktop industrial 3D printer.
．Material Station──Moisture-proof and dehumidifying, 6-spool capacity, filament detection, and automatic material change multi-function system.
．Air Manager──Enclosed air filter that detects materials and automatically adjusts the EPA filtration system.
These three devices each perform their specific functions and are fully compatible, thoroughly simplifying the 3D printing process. They simultaneously resolve common filament change and storage issues in FFF technology, providing a complete system for demanding industrial and commercial 3D printing applications.
Now, let's take a quick look at the main features of the Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle and new breakthroughs in the integrated 3D printing system:
The Material Station has 6 spool bays, providing greater 3D printing capacity and flexible setup space. For example, 3D printing objects that take more than three days no longer require manual filament changes or individual configurations. Each spool bay has an NFC sensor, compatible with Ultimaker filaments (excluding 350g special specifications) and "Ultimaker Material Alliance" filaments provided by Cura Marketplace. This achieves broad industrial applications, such as fiberglass, carbon fiber composites, or other 2.85 mm third-party materials with similar spools.
．Automatic Filament Change
The Material Station of the Ultimaker S5 has been tested to perform filament changes before, after, and even during the 3D printing process. Each spool bay is equipped with a filament detection function. When one spool of filament runs out, it automatically switches to the next compatible material. The internal diversion feeding tube automatically prevents filament tangles. ．Filament Moisture Protection
The Ultimaker S5 Material Station simultaneously solves the common problems of moisture and dust. Through its internal dehumidification system, the relative humidity inside the moisture-proof box can be reduced to 40%, even in an environment with 70% humidity. By eliminating moisture concerns, filament molecules will no longer degrade or expand due to water absorption, extending the 3D printing time and storage life. 
．5 Steps to Load Filament:
Open the door > Place the spool in the slot > Insert the filament into inlet 1 or 2 > Confirm filament loading > Finish and close the door
．2 Steps to Unload Filament:
Press the eject button > Wait for automatic unloading
The process of loading and unloading filament, which used to require waiting for the 3D printer, now takes only a few seconds! These processes have become much simpler thanks to the Material Station. In addition to accelerating innovation, the simplified process also allows all office members to freely use the 3D printing system. These tools, combined with free official software and firmware, provide optimal benefits. For example, Ultimaker Connect can automatically assign the next 3D printing filament or job from a list, or even pre-feed the correct material before 3D printing. When these repetitive and tedious tasks no longer require manual operation, significant time savings will be achieved.
Although there is almost no odor when 3D printing with the Ultimaker S5, not all 3D printing filaments are completely non-toxic. With the Air Manager, engineers can work with the 3D printer for extended periods with peace of mind.
The Air Manager contains a 140mm (5.5 inch) silent fan that generates an inward-outward airflow, effectively and continuously filtering plastic micro-particles from the air through a high-efficiency filter. When the filter life is exhausted, Ultimaker Connect displays a notification. In addition, it can adjust fan speed according to different materials and is included in the Ultimaker Cura print parameters, ensuring the fan and filter operate at optimal efficiency during printing. It is also easy to install without any tools, and all functions and control systems are interconnected with the Ultimaker S5 firmware and Ultimaker Cura software and are regularly updated.
Since the fully enclosed Air Manager provides a stable 3D printing environment, it is not affected by dust, and even positions near air conditioning units are protected from airflow, making configuration more convenient.
．Industrial Production Power of Ultimaker 3D Printers
Immediately enjoy the convenient workflow of the Ultimaker S5 Pro Bundle, allowing users to dedicate their valuable time to design and research and development, and quickly shorten product delivery times and increase sales. It is the world's most complete 3D printing system: from automatic material feeding and changing systems to air filtration and filament moisture protection and storage, realizing a worry-free 3D printing process that puts the power of digital manufacturing into anyone's hands.
