UltiMaker Factor 4

The UltiMaker Factor 4 is a next-generation industrial 3D printer engineered for high performance, repeatability, and automation. With dual extrusion, a fully enclosed heated chamber, and automated material handling, the Factor 4 delivers factory-level reliability from prototyping through production.

Key Features

• Heated, enclosed build chamber: Maintains a uniform temperature of up to 158°F for consistent mechanical properties and dimensional accuracy.
• Dual direct extrusion print head: Swappable print cores allow fast changes between flexible, composite, and engineering-grade materials.
• Automated material handling station: Stores up to six spools with humidity control below 15% RH and automatic spool switching for continuous operation.
• Real-time print validation: Integrated sensors analyze layer consistency and generate detailed deviation reports to ensure part integrity.
• Industrial safety design: Includes HEPA H13 filtration, emergency stop button, and open-door detection for a safe working environment.
• Exceptional precision: Delivers dimensional accuracy within ±0.008 in. (±0.2 mm) or ±0.2% across the entire build volume.
• Modular, serviceable platform: Built for long-term performance with firmware upgrades and a global support network.
