ULTIMAKER S6 Flex/Glass
The UltiMaker S6 (Flex / Glass variants) is a next-generation industrial FDM 3D printer designed for high-speed, high-precision production with engineering materials. Built on the legacy of the S5, it introduces the Cheetah motion planner, high-flow print cores, and improved feeder system, enabling faster print speeds up to 500 mm/s while maintaining dimensional accuracy.
Available in two build plate options:
- Flex Plate (PEI-coated steel) → Easy part removal, faster workflow
- Glass Plate → Superior surface finish and flatness
With dual extrusion, advanced material compatibility (300+ materials), and seamless Cura + Digital Factory integration, the S6 is ideal for engineering labs, manufacturing, and professional prototyping environments.
