MakerBot launches Method 3D Printer


“In an age of disruption, businesses are under pressure to innovate and bring products to market faster. Current desktop 3D printers derive their DNA from hobbyist 3D printers and are insufficient for many applications in the professional segment,” says Nadav Goshen, MakerBot CEO. “We believe that Method is the next step in helping organizations adopt 3D printing on a larger scale. Method provides a breakthrough in 3D printing that enables industrial designers and mechanical engineers to innovate faster and become more agile. It’s built for professionals who need immediate access to a 3D printer that can deliver industrial performance to accelerate their design cycles. Method was developed to bring industrial technologies into an accessible platform, breaking the price/performance barrier, and redefining rapid prototyping in the process,”.



Industrial technologies on the Method 3D Printer include a Circulating Heated Chamber, Dual-Performance Extruders, Precision PVA Water Soluble Supports, Dry-Sealed Material Bays, and an Ultra-Rigid Metal Frame. The Method also includes built-in sensors and automation features that “are designed to provide users with a seamless experience.” The printer’s industrial features control the 3D Printing Process to deliver “a high level of precision, reliability and dimensional accuracy at an accessible price.”


Method is designed to deliver industrial reliability and precision by carefully controlling every aspect of the 3D Print environment, resulting in repeatable and consistent parts with ± 0.2 mm dimensional accuracy as well as vertical layer uniformity and cylindricity. Until now, this level of precision has been limited to industrial-grade 3D printers. The dual extrusion system found in Method combined with water-soluble PVA provides a superior surface finish, and enables unlimited design freedom and unrestricted geometries, such as complex overhangs without scarring.
