Pensa, a leading design, strategy, and engineering consultancy, recently expanded its 3D printing capabilities with the addition of the UltiMaker Method XL. The Method XL joins Pensa’s existing Method and Method X printers, creating a seamless workflow for high-performance prototyping, rapid R&D, and low-volume production.
According to Marco Perry, co-founder of Pensa and Pensa Labs, the Method XL enables their team to create production-grade prototypes using ABS and RapidRinse™, eliminating the guesswork between prototype and final part. Its reliability and ease of use mean designers can iterate faster and run overnight batches with confidence—saving time, money, and manual labor.
“With the Method XL, we can run full batches overnight, print with confidence, and match the fidelity of injection-molded parts.” — Marco Perry, Co-founder, Pensa
From concept to pre-production, the Method XL helps teams like Pensa prototype faster and smarter—without compromise.
Briggs Automotive Company (BAC), the renowned British supercar manufacturer behind the Mono and Mono R, has integrated UltiMaker S Series 3D printers into their production and prototyping workflow. With over 44 custom components 3D printed on-site, BAC has transformed its design process, cutting costs and increasing the speed of production using industrial-grade materials like carbon fiber–reinforced nylon.
By leveraging the full UltiMaker ecosystem—including Digital Factory, open-material compatibility, and integrated slicing—BAC’s engineering team can prototype and manufacture lightweight, structurally sound components such as air inlet runners, mirror arms, and light surrounds. With UltiMaker’s precision and flexibility, BAC gains critical design freedom while maintaining the strength and performance required of parts used at speeds exceeding 270 km/h.

With UltiMaker composite materials, the line between prototyping and production is disappearing. Stronger, lighter, smarter. That’s the power of carbon fiber 3D printing.
The BOFA 3D PrintPRO 2 is a low-cost unit that extracts fumes generated by the printer without causing the filament deposition area to be cooled.
It has the benefits of low noise level and minimal power consumption. Each unit is supplied with a connection hose, ‘Stay Put’ arm and conical shaped nozzle.
The BOFA 3D PrintPRO 3 incorporates an externally mounted plenum system which effectively captures fumes generated during the printing process and returns ultra clean, filtered air to the operator’s breathing zone.
The BOFA 3D PrintPRO 3 has the benefits of low cost, low power consumption, and integral speed control. Each filtration unit is supplied with connection hoses and ‘print your own’ plenum instructions.
The BOFA 3D PrintPRO 4 provides a high fume evacuation and filtration rate when connected to a large enclosed 3D printer via its extraction off take point. the system can also return the filtered clean air either back to the printer enclosure for a cleaner print area or to the operator’s breathing zone.
