MakerBot Method XL 3D Printer
MakerBot Method XL 3D Printer
The Method XL delivers accurate, engineering-grade ABS prototypes, powered by its heated build plate and chamber. It ensures strong layer adhesion, enables complex geometries with water-soluble supports, and safeguards air quality with its built-in HEPA filter.
Engineering-Grade ABS Prototype Printing
With Method XL, engineers can design, test, and produce large models and prototypes using durable, production-grade ABS to meet their manufacturing needs, creating robust engineering-grade ABS prototypes to your specifications with unlimited geometric freedom.
Extra-Large Build Volume
Large parts? Method XL requires no compromises.
With the largest build volume of any UltiMaker 3D printer, Method XL is the ultimate 3D printing solution for large projects. Print with industrial-grade materials and exceptional dimensional accuracy without sacrificing part size.
Using Method XL in UltiMaker Cura
UltiMaker Cura now includes print profiles for Method XL.
Unlock the full 3D printing flexibility of Method XL using UltiMaker Cura. You can slice files for Method XL using professionally tuned print profiles in Cura.
VECT Heat Management System
Method XL's patented Variable Environmental Controlled Temperature (VECT) 100 heat management uniformly heats and controls the print environment. Method XL also features a heated build plate for better adhesion and temperature control.
Superior Dimensional Accuracy
High precision, low tolerance. Method XL is specifically designed to maintain dimensional accuracy and tight tolerances when printing the largest ABS parts. Method XL not only avoids warping and layer adhesion issues but also enables the creation of large parts with industrial-grade precision.
ABS RapidRinse Support
RapidRinse on Method XL allows for the fastest removal of supports for complex FDM prints. Create the geometry you want – in any orientation. Then watch those water-soluble supports dissolve before your eyes.
