UltiMaker Print Core DD

UltiMaker Print Core DD: Precision support for metal 3D printing

The UltiMaker Print Core DD is a highly specialised component developed specifically for the UltiMaker Metal Expansion Kit. It is engineered to extrude the BASF Forward AM Ultrafuse® Support Layer, a material essential for creating complex geometries in stainless steel. The DD core ensures the interface between the metal "green part" and its support structure is perfectly maintained, allowing effortless removal after the sintering process.

Using a dedicated core for the support layer eliminates the risk of cross-contamination between materials, ensuring the structural integrity and surface finish of your final metal components.

Belangrijkste kenmerken:

• Ceramic-optimised geometry: Specifically designed to handle the unique flow characteristics of the ceramic-based Ultrafuse® Support Layer without clogging.
• Wear-resistant construction: Features a hardened internal flow path to withstand the abrasive nature of support materials used in the metal FFF process.
• Seamless integration: Fully recognised by UltiMaker Cura and S-Series printers, allowing for automatic temperature and retraction settings.
• Tool-free replacement: Can be swapped in seconds, just like the AA, BB, and CC cores, ensuring maximum efficiency in professional workflows.

Compatibiliteit:

The Print Core DD (0.4 mm) is designed exclusively for the professional S-Series line:

a
• UltiMaker S7
• UltiMaker S5
• UltiMaker S3

Important safety & technical note:

The Print Core DD is not compatible with the UltiMaker 3 or 3 Extended. The feeder system on the UltiMaker 3 is not designed to handle the abrasive materials typically used with this core; attempting to use the DD core on these machines may lead to premature feeder wear and potential mechanical failure.

Onderhoudstip:

Because the Support Layer material is brittle and abrasive, ensure your Bowden tubes are clean and free of debris. We recommend following the dedicated "Metal Expansion Kit" cleaning procedure in UltiMaker Cura before and after every metal print job to maintain optimal flow through the DD core.
