The UltiMaker S5 is a professional dual-extrusion 3D printer built to run repeatedly to a known tolerance. It suits TAFE workshops, university design faculties and senior design and technology programmes, where the point is no longer whether the print succeeds but whether the part is right.
Key specifications:
- Build volume 330 x 240 x 300mm, for single or dual extrusion
- Dual-extrusion print head with auto-nozzle lifting and swappable print cores
- Layer resolution down to 20 micron with the 0.4mm nozzle
- Heated glass build plate, 20 to 140°C, with active levelling
- Nozzle temperature 180 to 280°C; build speed under 24mm³/s
- 4.7-inch colour touchscreen, with Wi-Fi, LAN and USB connectivity
- Operating sound under 50 dBA, so it can sit in an occupied room
- Ships with two AA 0.4mm print cores and one BB 0.4mm core
Materials:
- Open filament system, taking any 2.85mm material
- Optimised for PLA, Tough PLA, ABS, Nylon, CPE, CPE+, PC, PP, TPU 95A, PVA and Breakaway
- Three print core types: AA for build material, BB for support, CC for abrasive and composite filaments
What students practise:
- Designing for dual extrusion, using dissolvable supports to build geometry a single extruder cannot
- Selecting materials against a brief, weighing strength, finish and cost
- Working to tolerance, measuring a finished part and revising the model
Physical: 495 x 585 x 780mm including Bowden tubes and spool holder, net weight 20.6kg. Plan bench space and access accordingly.
Available to order for schools, TAFEs, universities and government institutions, on a purchase order or against a quote. For simpler classroom printing, see our FlashForge range, or browse all UltiMaker printers.
