MakerBot METHOD
Makerbot
An intuitive prototyping 3D Printer at an affordable price.
**IN STOCK IN A US-BASED WAREHOUSE AND READY TO SHIP ANYWHERE IN THE USA WITHIN 2-3 BUSINESS DAYS**
Features
Dual Performance Extruders
The Dual Performance Extruder system is built from the ground up to accelerate print times and provide dimensional accuracy across every part.
Dry-Sealed Material Bays
Dry-Sealed Material Bays form a near-perfect seal to keep material free of damaging humidity. A suite of built-in sensors provides that your material is stored in its optimal environment—a feature previously only available in industrial 3D printers.
Engineering Grade Materials
With its dual extruders and heated chamber, the METHOD is capable of printing a wide variety of materials right out of the box, including:
- PETG - All-around prototyping material w/ good chemical resistance
- Nylon - Tough material with good strength and lubricity
- PLA - The go to bio-material for sustainable prototying
- Tough - A tougher bio-material, ready for challenging parts
-
PVA - Dissolvable support for all materials beside ABS & ASA
Guaranteed Part Accuracy & SR-30 Soluble Support
- Complex geometries that are impossible to print with advanced materials on a desktop 3D printer – Enabled by Stratasys SR-30 soluble supports
- The only printer in its class to guarantee finished part dimensional accuracy ± 0.2mm (± 0.007in).
-
Print complex assemblies that fit with tight tolerances – every time.
Unrestricted Geometric Freedom - Dissolvable Support System
Superior surface finish and unrestricted geometric freedom are paramount to delivering high quality printed parts. MakerBot Water-Soluble PVA ensures fast and effortless support removal without compromising part design or dimensional accuracy.
MakerBot Water-Soluble PVA provides two key benefits:
- Unrestricted geometric freedom (large overhangs, cavities, etc.)
- Superior print quality and surface finish
Heated Chamber Delivers Stronger Manufacturing-Grade Parts
- A Heated Chamber produces stronger parts than a heated build plate
-
Achieve consistent st
- Print real ABS, ASA, and PC-ABS with superior mechanical and thermal properties than modified desktop 3D printer formulations.
Guaranteed Part Accuracy & SR-30 Soluble Support
- Complex geometries that are impossible to print with advanced materials on a desktop 3D printer – Enabled by Stratasys SR-30 soluble supports
- The only printer in its class to guarantee finished part dimensional accuracy ± 0.2mm (± 0.007in).
- Print complex assemblies that fit with tight tolerances – every time.
Save Engineering Time With An Automated Workflow & CAD Integration
- Put an end to tinkering and time-consuming printer upkeep with the most streamlined workflow in the industry, including automated material handling, build plate leveling, and extruder calibration.
- Keep your projects moving and enjoy enjoy peace of mind with our leading in-house customer support and MakerCare machine hot swap.
With the METHOD there is no need to worry about concerns of other desktop 3D printers:
- Bed Leveling - Automated!
- Support Material - Dissolve your concerns away!!
- Filament Run Out - We got a Sensor for that!!
- Filament Jam - We got a Sensor for that too!!
- Environmental Temperature - Heated Chamber controls for that!
- Material Mix-up - ID tags and sensors!!
- Print Parameters - MakerBot Print has pre-configured printer parameters for all MakerBot materials
- Humidity in the Filament - Our materials keep dry material dry, and we have a sensor to check that at all time...if it is wet, you can dry the filament in the build chamber!
