UltiMaker Method XL

Large scale ABS 3D printing. Injection-molding prototyping.

Method XL delivers precise, engineering-grade ABS prototypes, powered by its heated build plate and chamber. It guarantees strong layer adhesion, enables intricate geometries with water-soluble supports, and safeguards air quality with its built-in HEPA filter.

Engineering-grade ABS prototypes

Print solid, engineering-grade ABS prototypes that match your specs.

With the Method XL, engineers can design, test, and produce large-scale models and prototypes with durable, production-grade ABS for their manufacturing needs with unrestricted geometric freedom.

Large part size? No compromise.

With the largest build volume of any UltiMaker 3D printer, the Method XL is the ultimate 3D printing solution for large-scale projects. Print with industrial-grade materials and exceptional dimensional accuracy without the need to compromise on the size of your parts.

Method XL now in UltiMaker Cura

UltiMaker Cura now includes print profiles for the Method XL. Unlock complete 3D printing flexibility on the Method XL by using UltiMaker Cura. You can use professionally tuned print profiles within Cura to slice files for the Method XL.

Heated chamber. Heated build plate.

VECT thermal regulation system

Patented Variable Environmental Controlled Temperature (VECT) 100 thermal regulation evenly heats and controls the print environment. The Method XL also has a heated build plate for even better adhesion and temperature control.

High precision for Low tolerances.

Exceptional dimensional accuracy.

The Method XL has been especially engineered to maintain dimensional accuracy and tight tolerances while printing even the largest ABS parts. Not only does the Method XL avoid warping and layer adhesion issues, but it creates massive parts with industrial-grade precision.

Direct drive extruders

Reliably 3D print with ABS-R or ABS Carbon Fiber to simulate the material qualities of injection molded plastics.

Two filters, one seamless print

Both a HEPA filter and an activated carbon filter are integrated into the machine assuring that you can use the Method XL indoors without worrying about harmful fumes or strong smells.

Support material? Gone in a splash.

Quick-dissolving supports for ABS. RapidRinse on the Method XL enables the fastest support removal for complex FDM prints. Create the geometries you want – in any orientation. Then watch as those water-soluble supports dissolve before your eyes.
