UltiMaker S5

Reliable 3D printing – at scale.

The Ultimaker S5 has a large build volume of 330 x 240 x 300 mm. Print at large scale, or fit multiple parts on a build plate, so you can get the dimensions you designed for. And in combination with our remote 3D printing software, group multiple Ultimaker S5 and Ultimaker 3 printers together to maximize production efficiency.

Reliable adhesion, from first layer to finished part

A perfect first layer is crucial to every 3D print. To ensure that this happens every time, we have overhauled our active leveling technology. The Ultimaker S5 probes the build plate in a greater number of locations, creating a precisely detailed heightmap of the build surface. Using this data, it compensates for any surface deviations in real time, giving you a perfect, ultra-flat first layer, with secure adhesion that lasts the entire print. There’s no need for constant monitoring – just start a print, and leave the Ultimaker S5 to do its job while you do yours.

High uptime and greater flexibility

Swappable print cores enable effortless, tool-free maintenance and maximum printer uptime. Achieve different print characteristics using different nozzle sizes, ranging from 0.8 mm for rapid prints, to 0.25 mm for ultra-fine detail. With two available print core slots in the print head, quickly and easily click in your desired combination for reliable dual-extrusion. Print with different colors for aesthetic impact, or use water-soluble PVA or Breakaway support for full geometric freedom, easy post-processing, and a high-quality surface finish, so that tactile presentation models, or complex mechanical parts look polished and professional.

To keep your print securely in place for the entire print duration, the Ultimaker S5 uses a large hardened glass build plate that quickly and easily clips onto an extra-stiff cast aluminum heated platform.

Full control at your fingertips

A responsive, full-color touchscreen, integrated into the front panel of the Ultimaker S5, makes operation intuitive, effortless, and informed. Swipe through menus and tap options to select them, just like a smartphone. Detailed information, such as loaded materials, print cores, and the build plate and nozzle temperature keeps you up to date about jobs in progress, and a 3D preview lets you see what’s printing at a glance. And with eleven supported display languages, including English, German, Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, the Ultimaker S5 is accessible to users all over the world.

Get ahead with professional prototyping

A Bowden extrusion system keeps the print head ultra-light, for the fastest possible performance. A tight filament path ensures a reliable experience printing with flexible materials, such as TPU 95A.

Material is moved at a precise rate with a tool steel feeder gear, with an extra-hard coating to prevent long-term wear. And the redesigned silicone nozzle cover keeps print head airflow consistent, for efficient material throughput.

Loading, unloading and changing material is effortless, with an ergonomic locking lever built into each feeder. Flip the lever upwards to manually insert or remove material. Flip it closed, and constant force is applied to the material, so it is driven accurately.

A built-in filament flow sensor intelligently detects when material stops moving or is nearing an end. To save your print if a material runs out, the Ultimaker S5 will automatically pause and prompt you to take action.
