Product Overview
The Makerbot Method is a brand new 3D printer that's set to change the way you think about 3D printing. The Makerbot Method offers high-resolution prints, with no need for support material during printing. This means you can print without limits on size, shape, or detail of your object. Featuring a large build area of 190 mm x 190 mm x 196 mm and resolution of 20-400 microns, this 3D printer will give you the best quality prints possible. And with a direct-drive extruder, it's perfect for printing with flexible materials like TPU and nylon.
Makerbot Method Specification
| Overview There's a direct drive extruder inside. This direct drive extruder means that the extruder is mounted on the printhead. This then pushes the filament directly into, and out of, the hot end and into your print. | |||

Extruder Type | direct drive | ||
| Performance The usable filament diameter is a 1.75 mm diameter. There are 2 extruders in the printer. Having more than one extruder attached to the printer can help you print material faster, as the printer can focus on multiple elements at once. The recommended maximum printing speed is 500 mm/s. This printing speed can affect the quality of the print, so make sure this speed falls within ranges you would like. You'll get a 190 mm x 190 mm x 196 mm in the Makerbot Method, so make sure everything you want to print fits in this. You can make do by making your print in pieces, and then assembling, however, sometimes you'll just need a larger build area. The build plate is made from Spring Steel. | |||
