Features

Due to its ease of use and ability to produce high Quality prints, the Ultimaker 2 is the most popular 3D printer at MakeICT. It has been upgraded with an E3D V6 hotend and geared E3D Titan extruder for increased reliability. Unlike the stock version, it uses 1.75mm filament which is the standard among all 3 of the printers at the makerspace.

Access Policy

See 3D Printing for access policy.

Use

Details: Add detailed instructions

STL files can be sliced using Cura. The resulting gcode file is saved on an SD card and prints are run through the built in interface without needing to be connected to a computer.

Acquisition

This printer was purchased using grant money from the Wichita Community Foundation and the Knight Foundation.
