UltiMaker Factor 4+ 3D Printer

The UltiMaker Factor 4+ is a rugged, industrial workhorse built to deliver high-strength composite parts right on the factory floor, now at twice the speed. Combining high-flow print cores with an advanced motion planner, it slashes production times without losing accuracy. Plus, with the new TRACE system tracking real-time print date directly from the hardware, you get immediate quality validation for every part you create. It's the ultimate tool for replacing machined metal components on tight deadlines. Features Up to 2x Faster Industrial Production: Driven by the advanced Cheetah motion planner and high-flow print cores, the system cuts production times in half while preserving superior dimensional accuracy. UltiMaker TRACE Validation Engine: Automatically tracks and records critical print parameters, including extrusion behaviour and chamber temperatures, straight from the hardware to generate an immediate CAD-validation report for every part. Ruggedized Architecture for Harsh Fields: Validated through 15,000 hours of rigorous testing, the newly redesigned gantry architecture absorbs structural vibration at high print speeds, making it reliable for remote or forward operating environments. Actively Heated Build Chamber: Features a triple-insulated build volume actively controlled up to 70 °C, ensuring optimal material-specific processing and preventing part warping or layer delamination. Integrated Automated Material Handling: Low-maintenance internal climate chamber stores up to 6 kilograms of filament across 6 automated bays, keeping relative humidity below 15% to maintain optimal material conditions.
