Professional 3D printing just got more accessible. Maximise the print performance and machine uptime with our swappable, material-matching print cores. Make the most out of reliable build and support material combinations for geometric freedom or print in dual colour. Print Core BB 0.8mm can speed up your printing (as compared with Print Core BB 0.4mm) when printing PVA support material.

Main Features

• Material matching: Get consistent, high-quality 3D printing results with customised nozzle geometry per material, whether it’s an engineering build material or soluble support
• Quick-to-change: Quickly swap print cores and switch between different material combinations for a more time-efficient workflow
• Accurate temperature reading: Maintain the perfect temperature for an even better quality print – with automatic, accurate temperature readings

Specifications:

Supported materials*:
Print core BB: PVA
*Do not use Print core BB for build materials (e.g. PLA, ABS, CPE, CPE+, Nylon, PC, TPU 95A, PP)

*** UPDATE 11th May 2018***

Please note that new versions of the print core do not have silicon rings.

"The silicone nozzle ring has been removed from the nozzle of the print cores. The groove in the nozzle to fixate the silicone nozzle ring will also be removed on a short term. This applies to the print cores that come with the printer, as well as print cores that were purchased separately. This change is implemented to make the print cores compatible with the Ultimaker S5. Due to the nozzle cover of the Ultimaker S5, the front fan bracket will not close properly if the silicone nozzle ring is around the nozzle. On the Ultimaker 3, the silicone nozzle ring helps to close the seal between the nozzle and the silicone cover. However, R&D has decided the risk of removing the ring is negligible.
