ALL THE RESOURCES YOU NEED TO START 3D PRINTING OUT OF THE BOX

We’ll send onboarding instructions, tips, and videos to get you started printing reliable parts straight out of the box with METHOD

With over 25 videos and over 100 articles, our team has all the content you need to keep printing high quality parts in a variety of materials on METHOD.

Whether you prefer phone, email, or live chat, MakerBot support experts are just a step away.

Features

Ultra-Rigid Metal Frame Construction

• A structurally-optimized metal frame runs the full length of the body to offset flexing. Less flexing means more consistent prints with better part accuracy and fewer failures.

Circulating Heated Chamber

• Control the temperature and quality of every layer—not just the first. While heated build plates are effective at reducing warping, Method takes this further with full active heat immersion during the entire duration of the print.

Dual Performance Extruders

• The Dual Performance Extruder system is built from the ground up to accelerate print times and produce precise parts.

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.

Dissolvable Support System

• Superior surface finish and unrestricted geometric freedom are paramount to delivering high quality printed parts. MakerBot’s Precision Dissolving PVA enables fast and easy support removal without compromising part design or dimensional accuracy. 

Precision Dissolving PVA provides two key benefits:

• Unrestricted geometric freedom (large overhangs, cavities, etc)
• Superior print quality and surface finish.
